T4240NSN7QTB

The T4240, with 24 virtual cores, is the flagship of the QorIQ T series. Joined by the T4160 (16 virtual cores) and T4080 (eight virtual cores), the T4 family has a 3x performance scaling factor within a pin compatible package. With frequencies scaling to 1.8 GHz, integrated 1Gbps and 10Gpbs Ethernet, hardware acceleration and advanced system peripherals, these products target applications that benefit from consolidation of control and data plane processing in a single SoC, such as services cards, microservers, ADCs, WOCs, intelligent NICS, RNCs

CORE COMPLEX

• Twelve dual threaded e6500 cores built on Power Architecture® technology, each with one AltiVec engine (8 and T4160 and 4 on T4080)
• Arranged as three clusters of four e6500s, each sharing a 2 MB L2 cache (two clusters on T4160 and one cluster on T4080).
• Up to 1.8 GHz with 64-bit ISA support (Power Architecture v2.06-compliant)
• Three levels of instruction: user, supervisor, and hypervisor
• 1.5 MB CoreNet Platform Cache (1MB on T4160 and T4080)
