T4240NSN7PQB

The T4240NSN7PQB is a PowerPC e6500-based QorIQ T4 microprocessor from NXP Semiconductors, featuring a 12-core, 64-bit architecture running at 1.8 GHz in a 1932-FCPBGA (45×45) package. It is designed for embedded applications that require multi-core processing, extensive I/O integration and on-chip security capabilities.

With multiple high-speed Ethernet interfaces, SATA and USB connectivity, plus DDR3/DDR3L memory controllers, this device targets embedded networking, communications and storage-oriented designs that need consolidated processing and I/O in a surface-mount BGA package.

Key Features

• Core and Performance  PowerPC e6500 architecture with 12 64-bit cores at 1.8 GHz, offering multi-core parallel processing for compute-intensive embedded workloads.
• Memory  Integrated DDR3 and DDR3L memory controllers provide system memory support for standard embedded DRAM configurations.
• Ethernet Connectivity  Extensive on-chip Ethernet: up to sixteen 1 Gbps ports and four 10 Gbps ports to support high-port-count networking and aggregation functions.
• Storage and USB  Two SATA 3 Gbps interfaces and two USB 2.0 ports with PHY enable direct storage and peripheral connectivity.
• Security Features  On-chip boot security, cryptography, secure fusebox, secure debug, tamper detection and volatile key storage provide a range of hardware security mechanisms.
• Package and Mounting  Supplied in a 1932-FCPBGA (45×45) surface-mount package (1932-BBGA form factor) for compact board-level integration.
• Additional Interfaces  I2C interface available for system control and peripheral management.
• Operating Range  Rated for operation from 0 °C to 105 °C to match systems with that thermal requirement.
• RoHS Compliance  Device is RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Networking Equipment  High port-count Ethernet support (16×1 Gbps, 4×10 Gbps) enables routing, switching and aggregation platforms.
• Telecommunications Infrastructure  Multi-core processing and high-speed I/O suit control and data-plane functions in telecom and carrier equipment.
• Storage and NAS Appliances  Dual SATA 3 Gbps and USB 2.0 interfaces support compact storage controllers and network-attached storage designs.
• Industrial Embedded Systems  The device accommodates embedded systems designed to operate within the 0 °C to 105 °C temperature range.

Unique Advantages

• High core count for parallel processing: 12 64-bit PowerPC e6500 cores at 1.8 GHz enable concurrent task execution and throughput scaling across threads and processes.
• Comprehensive networking I/O: Integration of up to 16×1 Gbps and 4×10 Gbps Ethernet ports reduces external PHY/BOM needs for high-density networking designs.
• Integrated security functions: Hardware features such as boot security, cryptography and secure fusebox help implement protected boot and key management.
• Flexible memory and storage interfaces: DDR3/DDR3L controllers plus SATA and USB ports support common embedded memory and storage architectures.
• Compact BGA package: 1932-FCPBGA (45×45) surface-mount package enables high-density board layouts for space-constrained systems.
• Wide operating temperature window: Rated 0 °C to 105 °C to suit designs with elevated thermal requirements within that range.
