Product Overview and Roadmap

Freescale

Performance, Integration and Connectivity are the key attributes that make the PowerPC the ideal choice for industrial applications.

o      Performance. PowerPC products provide the highest compute density and performance within the power budget for embedded markets.

o      Integration. Multi-core architectures and integrated memory controllers are bringing higher performance without the power and heat which come with the traditional approach of crudely increasing frequencies.

o      Connectivity. High bandwidth on-chip interfaces such as PCI-Express, Gigabit Ethernet and RapidIO are enabling low-latency high performance systems.

 

Freescale offers the broadest portfolio of processors based on the PowerPC® core in the world. Our portfolio ranges from very high-performance processors based on the e600 PowerPC core found in high-end, general-purpose computing applications to high precision microcontrollers based on the e200 core that are specialized for industrial applications.
