T4240: QorIQ T Series T4240/T4160 24/16 Virtual Core Communications Processors  Favorite



PREPRODUCTION

The first SoCs in the QorIQ T series are the flagship T4240 with 12 physical cores supporting 24 virtual cores and the T4160 with 8 physical cores supporting 16 virtual cores. With frequencies scaling to 1.8 GHz, large caches, hardware acceleration and advanced system peripherals, these products target applications that benefit from consolidation of control and data plane processing in a single SoC.
