Product details
Overview
T1024NXN7PQA 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 hardware acceleration, and integrated 10 GbE/4×1 GbE Ethernet MACs. It serves as the control-plane SoC in enterprise WLAN access points and unified threat management gateways.
For engineers reviewing the T1024NXN7PQA datasheet, T1024NXN7PQA pinout, T1024NXN7PQA application, or T1024NXN7PQA equivalent, key selection considerations include DDR3L/DDR4 memory controller bandwidth (1600 MT/s), SEC 5.x cryptographic acceleration, SerDes lane configuration (4×10 Gbps), and CoreNet coherency fabric support for multi-core deterministic latency.
Technical Context
The T1024NXN7PQA implements two e5500 single-threaded 64-bit Power ISA v2.06 cores with per-core 32 KB I-cache and 32 KB D-cache, backed by a shared 256 KB platform cache and 256 KB backside L2 cache. Its CoreNet Coherency Fabric enables cache-coherent inter-core communication and prioritized bandwidth allocation across accelerators and peripherals.
DPAA offloads packet parsing, classification, distribution, queue management, buffer management, and SEC 5.x crypto operations-including CAPWAP/DTLS en/decryption and full L2/L3 tunneling-while the QUICC Engine supports legacy TDM/HDLC and industrial protocols. Four SerDes lanes operate at up to 10 Gbps, supporting SGMII, QSGMII, XFI, PCIe 2.0, and SATA 2.0 physical layers.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the T1024NXN7PQA?
The T1024NXN7PQA operates at up to 1.4 GHz across both e5500 cores under validated thermal and voltage conditions. This frequency is sustained with active thermal management and proper DDR3L/DDR4 memory timing alignment. The T1024NXN7PQA datasheet specifies this as the guaranteed maximum core clock speed for commercial temperature grade operation.
Does the T1024NXN7PQA support DDR4 memory?
Yes, the T1024NXN7PQA supports both DDR3L and DDR4 SDRAM with ECC, up to 1600 MT/s. Its 64-bit memory controller is fully compliant with JEDEC DDR4-1600 specifications and includes on-die termination calibration and write-leveling logic. The T1024NXN7PQA reference design validates DDR4-1600 operation with Micron MT40A512M16JE-083E devices.
Is the T1024NXN7PQA pin-compatible with other QorIQ processors?
Yes, the T1024NXN7PQA uses a 23 mm × 23 mm FCBGA package with pin compatibility to the T1042NXN7PQA and T2081 processors. This allows hardware reuse across performance tiers. However, the T1024NXN7PQA does not share pinout with the smaller 19 mm × 19 mm T1023NXN7PQA or legacy P1020 packages.
What security features are implemented in the T1024NXN7PQA?
The T1024NXN7PQA integrates QorIQ Trust Architecture including secure boot from NOR/NAND flash, tamper detection sensors, volatile key storage, and secure debug disable. It also includes the Security Monitor and Security Fuse Processor blocks, enabling hardware-enforced root-of-trust and runtime attestation. These features are active and verified in the T1024NXN7PQA silicon revision documented in Freescale Document T1024FS REV 2.
Which development tools are officially supported for the T1024NXN7PQA?
NXP officially supports CodeWarrior Development Studio for Power Architecture, the QorIQ Linux SDK, and VortiQa application software-including AIS for application identification and open network switch/director suites. Third-party toolchains from Wind River, Mentor Graphics, and Green Hills are also qualified for T1024NXN7PQA-based designs per NXP's ecosystem documentation.
