T4080NSN7PQB

Overview

The T4080NSN7PQB is a QorIQ microprocessor based on the Power Architecture e6500 core, featuring eight cores operating at a maximum frequency of 1.667 GHz. It utilizes a 64-bit data bus and integrates 2 MB of L2 cache alongside 32 kB instruction and data L1 caches. The device supports DDR3 and DDR3L SDRAM memory types with a transfer rate of 1.87 GT/s. Operating within a temperature range of 0°C to +105°C, it employs an FCPBGA-1932 package and requires a supply voltage between 975 mV and 1.025 V.

Feature Summary

• Eight-core e6500 architecture for high-performance parallel processing
• Integrated hardware cryptographic acceleration capabilities
• Support for dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
• Compatibility with DDR3 and DDR3L memory standards

Applications

• Enterprise networking infrastructure equipment
• Service provider router systems
• Telecommunications base station controllers
• Wireless network controller applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision level and cryptographic feature enablement against official NXP documentation before procurement. Confirm that the required thermal management solutions align with the specified 0°C to +105°C operating temperature range. Ensure compatibility with the designated FCPBGA-1932 footprint and power delivery specifications during the design phase.

Selection Notes

Select this component when eight high-frequency cores are required for complex routing or switching tasks. Consider the integrated security features if encryption offloading is necessary. Evaluate the DDR3L support for power efficiency requirements in dense networking environments compared to standard DDR3 alternatives.

Part Context

This processor belongs to the NXP QorIQ T4080 family, representing a generation of multicore communications processors designed for demanding networking workloads. It succeeds earlier architectures by offering improved performance per watt through the e6500 core implementation and enhanced I/O capabilities suitable for modern data center and telecom applications.

Replacement Considerations

Consult NXP documentation for direct substitutes within the T4080 series or migration paths to newer Layerscape families such as the LX2160A.
