Product details
Overview
T1014NXN7KQA from NXP Semiconductors is a dual-core 64-bit Power Architecture® communications processor featuring e5500 cores at up to 1.4 GHz, 256 KB backside L2 cache, DPAA acceleration, and integrated QUICC Engine for TDM/HDLC. It targets enterprise WLAN access points, unified threat management gateways, and industrial single-board computers.
For engineers reviewing the T1014NXN7KQA datasheet, T1014NXN7KQA pinout, T1014NXN7KQA application, or T1014NXN7KQA equivalent, key selection factors include DDR3L/DDR4 memory controller bandwidth (1600 MT/s), SerDes lane count (4 × 10 Gbit/s), Ethernet MAC count (up to 4 × 1 GbE), SEC 5.x crypto engine, and FCBGA-783 package compatibility with T1024/T1042 designs.
Technical Context
The T1014NXN7KQA implements two e5500 CPU cores with per-core 32 KB I-cache and 32 KB D-cache, backed by a shared 256 KB platform cache and 256 KB L2 cache. Its CoreNet Coherency Fabric enables cache-coherent interconnect between CPU, accelerators, and peripherals.
It integrates DPAA hardware blocks-including QMAN, BMAN, and SEC 5.x-for packet parsing, classification, distribution, queue/buffer management, and cryptographic offload (AES, SHA, RSA). The QUICC Engine supports legacy TDM/HDLC protocols, while four SerDes lanes support SGMII, QSGMII, PCIe 2.0, SATA 2.0, and XFI interfaces.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the T1014NXN7KQA?
The T1014NXN7KQA operates at a maximum frequency of 1.4 GHz across both e5500 cores. This clock speed is validated under industrial temperature range (–40°C to +105°C) with appropriate voltage and cooling. The T1014NXN7KQA achieves this performance while maintaining full DPAA and SEC 5.x accelerator functionality without throttling.
Does the T1014NXN7KQA support DDR4 memory?
Yes, the T1014NXN7KQA supports both DDR3L and DDR4 memory via its 64-bit memory controller, with data rates up to 1600 MT/s. DDR4 operation requires 1.2 V VDD_DDR and compatible timing parameters as defined in JEDEC JESD79-4. The T1014NXN7KQA validates DDR4-1600 with ECC enabled and 64-bit bus width in reference designs.
Is the T1014NXN7KQA pin-compatible with the T1024NXN7KQA?
Yes, the T1014NXN7KQA is fully pin-compatible with the T1024NXN7KQA in the 23 mm × 23 mm FCBGA-783 package. Both share identical ball map, power sequencing, and signal definitions-enabling drop-in replacement in existing layouts where CoreNet Coherency Fabric or Security Monitor features are not utilized.
What cryptographic algorithms does the SEC 5.x engine in the T1014NXN7KQA accelerate?
The SEC 5.x engine in the T1014NXN7KQA accelerates AES-128/192/256 (ECB/CBC/CTR/GCM), SHA-1/224/256/384/512, RSA-1024/2048/4096, ECC-192/224/256/384/521, and HMAC-SHA. These are implemented in hardened hardware with side-channel resistance and key isolation-verified in NXP's Common Criteria EAL4+ certification for the T1014NXN7KQA.
Does the T1014NXN7KQA include a QUICC Engine module?
Yes, the T1014NXN7KQA integrates a full QUICC Engine module supporting TDM, HDLC, UART, ISDN, and industrial serial protocols. This module operates independently of the e5500 cores and includes dedicated RISC processors, DMA channels, and protocol-specific firmware-enabling legacy WAN interface support without CPU overhead. The T1014NXN7KQA retains this feature unlike the T1013NXN7KQA.
