●Overview
●The QorIQ® P2040 and P2041 quad-core processors bring high-end architectural features pioneered in the P4 platform into the low-end and mid-range quad-core space.
●They are software-compatible with members of the P1 family and all devices in the P3, P4 and P5 families. This enables customers to scale software up and down the QorIQ product line. The P2040 and P2041 are pin-compatible, sharing a 23 x 23 mm package.
