T4240NSE7TTB

Overview

The T4240NSE7TTB is a QorIQ Power Architecture microprocessor featuring 24 e6500 cores operating at 1.8 GHz. It utilizes a 64-bit data bus and integrates 2 MB of L2 cache with 32 kB L1 instruction and data caches per core. The device supports DDR3L SDRAM, offers four 10 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, and includes hardware crypto capabilities. Operating within a 0 to +105°C range, it employs an FCPBGA-1932 package and requires a core voltage between 975 mV and 1.025 V.

Feature Summary

• Integrates 24 e6500 processor cores for high-throughput parallel processing
• Includes dedicated hardware cryptographic acceleration engines
• Supports multiple interface standards including PCIe, USB, and I2C

Applications

• High-performance network infrastructure equipment
• Telecommunications base station controllers
• Enterprise routing and switching platforms

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision level (Rev 2.0) against design requirements. Confirm that the FCPBGA-1932 package footprint matches the PCB layout. Ensure thermal management solutions accommodate the power density of 24 active cores. Validate supply chain authenticity through authorized NXP channels.

Selection Notes

Select this component when 24-thread performance and integrated security are required. Compare against the T4241 variant if higher clock speeds or additional features are needed. Consider the T4240NSE7PQB if lower frequency operation suffices. Evaluate board complexity due to the large BGA package and high pin count.
