P2010NSN2KHC

The P2010NSN2KHC is an NXP QorIQ P2010 series single‑core communications microprocessor based on the PowerPC e500v2 core, running at 1.2 GHz. It targets networking, telecom, industrial and defense/aerospace markets that require high single‑threaded performance per watt and a rich set of integrated interfaces.

Built on a low‑power platform with integrated peripherals and security features, the device is designed for control‑plane and linecard applications where a compact, software‑compatible solution is needed to scale designs across the QorIQ family.

Key Features

• Core — PowerPC e500v2 single 32‑bit core running at 1.2 GHz for high single‑threaded performance.
• Security Engine — Integrated security accelerators (SEC 3.3), cryptography and a hardware random number generator to support common networking security protocols.
• Memory — 64‑bit memory controller with support for DDR2 and DDR3 memory technologies and error correction code (ECC) as described in the product family datasheet.
• Ethernet — Three 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports with advanced packet parsing, flow control and IEEE 1588 time stamping capability at the device family level.
• High‑Speed Interfaces — Integrated support for USB 2.0 (2 ports with PHY), PCI Express and RapidIO as part of the device family feature set.
• Peripheral Set — Local bus, SD/MMC, DUART, SPI and GPIO for flexible system integration.
• Package & Mounting — 689‑TEPBGA II exposed‑pad package (31 mm × 31 mm), surface mount.
• Operating Range & Compliance — Rated for 0 °C to 125 °C operating temperature and RoHS compliant; device qualification listed as Consumer.

Typical Applications

• Networking Linecards — Control‑plane processing, packet parsing and QoS offload using the single high‑performance core and multiple Gigabit Ethernet ports.
• Telecom Systems — Protocol processing and management tasks leveraging integrated security accelerators and memory controller flexibility.
• Industrial & Defense Equipment — Control and management applications in power‑sensitive or thermally constrained systems within the stated temperature range.
• Embedded Communication Appliances — Compact systems requiring USB, PCIe/RapidIO connectivity and a coherent system bus for peripheral integration.

Unique Advantages

• High single‑thread performance: A 1.2 GHz PowerPC e500v2 core delivers strong single‑core throughput for control‑plane workloads.
• Integrated security: On‑chip SEC 3.3 accelerators, cryptography and RNG reduce external crypto offload and simplify secure system design.
• Memory flexibility: 64‑bit controller supporting DDR2/DDR3 and ECC provides migration path for system memory and improved data integrity.
• Rich I/O consolidation: Multiple Gigabit Ethernet ports, USB 2.0, PCIe and RapidIO support lower BOM and simplified board routing for communication systems.
• Pin and software compatibility within the family: Compatibility across QorIQ P2 and P1 family devices enables performance scaling from the same board design.
• Robust package and thermal range: 689‑BBGA exposed‑pad package and 0 °C to 125 °C operating rating support compact, thermally constrained designs.
