QorIQ T4240 3U OpenVPX
SBC (RIOV-2440)
Compatible Operating Systems: Integrity, VxWorks, VxWorks
653, Linux
Compatible Architectures: OpenVPX, PCIe, SRIO, GbE, 10GbE,
SATA II
The RIOV-2440 features the QorIQ T4240, the first
Advanced Multiprocessing SoC from Freescale, with 12
dual-threaded cores. The 24 virtual cores of the T4240,
along with the associated Altivec technology SIMD
engines and hardware accelerators, provide excellent
performance for calculation-intensive applications. The
integrated I/O peripherals and the data-path acceleration
architecture (DPAA) guarantee the highest performance
for I/O-intensive applications. The CoreNet fabric
provides very efficient point-to-point interconnection
between the multiple cores and peripherals, making the
T4240 the ideal choice for applications requiring very
high performance, both in I/O and calculation. The hardware-assisted
virtualization support enables the safe and
flexible partitioning of applications on the multiple cores.
The RIOV-2440 supports the T4240 processor with up to
12 GB of high-speed DDR3 memory in three separate
banks, 2 GB of onboard Flash, and direct I/O connections
to the backplane. The overhead of additional switches
and bridges is eliminated, while flexibility is provided
by the multiple processor I/O configuration options,
including PCIe, SRIO, GbE, 10GbE and SATA II. It is compatible
with most OpenVPX payload slot profiles. As
the first SBC with the T4240 processor, the RIOV-2440
is intended for air-cooled applications and laboratory
models. It provides easy access to the essential I/Os on
the front panel, as well as complete connectivity on the
backplane. Various RTM modules are available to access
the wide range of I/O and debug signals.
