<strong>Marvell</strong> <strong>Quad</strong>-<strong>Core</strong> <strong>ARMADA</strong> <strong>XP</strong> <strong>Series</strong> <strong>SoC</strong><br />
For Enterprise-Class Cloud Computing Applications<br />
PRODUCT OVERVIEW<br />
The <strong>Marvell</strong> ® <strong>ARMADA</strong> <strong>XP</strong> (Extreme Performance) series of multicore processors is the industry’s first quad-core<br />
ARM processor designed for enterprise-class cloud computing applications. The <strong>Marvell</strong> <strong>ARMADA</strong> <strong>XP</strong> employs a<br />
very low power architecture and incorporates up to four <strong>Marvell</strong> designed ARM V7 MP compliant 1.6GHz CPU cores<br />
to deliver the best performance per watt for next generation “Green” system designs. The <strong>ARMADA</strong> <strong>XP</strong> series<br />
supports SMP (Symmetrical Multi-processing)/AMP (Asymmetrical Multi-processing) modes with hardware cache<br />
coherency and 64-bit DDR2/DDR3 memory interface at 800MHz clock rate (1600MHz data rate) to enable very<br />
high-performance system design. These devices incorporate up to 2MB L2 cache, <strong>Quad</strong> x4 PCI-express interfaces,<br />
multiple USB ports, Gigabit Ethernet ports, SATA, security engine and advanced power management techniques —<br />
setting new technology benchmarks for high-performance, low power and integration. With its broad offering of 5<br />
pin compatible chips, the <strong>ARMADA</strong> <strong>XP</strong> is ideally suited for applications ranging from high-performance networking,<br />
wireless infrastructure and web servers to high volume products like NAS, home servers, laser printers and other<br />
embedded applications.<br />
• Up to four high-performance CPU cores with Vector Floating Point (VFP) support<br />
• Up to 1.6GHz operating speed<br />
• Heterogeneous multiprocessing (SMP/AMP/Mixed) with hardware-based cache coherency<br />
• I/O cache coherency<br />
• 32KB-Instruction (4-way) and 32KB-Data (8-way), set-associative L1 cache per core<br />
• Up to 2MB shared and unified 32-way, set-associative L2 cache<br />
• 64-bit DDR2/DDR3/DDR3L memory interface with ECC support at up to 800MHz clock rates (1600MHz data rate)<br />
• Four Gigabit Ethernet MACs with interface options (GMII/RGMII/SGMII/QSGMII)<br />
• High-performance security engines<br />
• Four PCI-e 2.0 ports (two x4 ports can be configured to <strong>Quad</strong> x1 – up to 16 lanes)<br />
• Three USB 2.0 ports<br />
• Two SATA 2.0 ports<br />
• Up to 16 high speed <strong>Marvell</strong> SERDES lanes with multi functionality (PCI-e, SATA, SGMII, QSGMII)<br />
• Advanced power management<br />
• On-chip LCD controller, NOR, NAND, SPI, SDIO, UART, I2C, TDM interfaces, etc.<br />
