QorIQ T1040RDB Board

INTRODUCTION

The QorIQ® T1040 Reference Design Board is a high-performance computing evaluation, development and test platform for QorIQ T1040 communications processors built on Power Architecture® technology.

The boards, with 1.5 GHz T1040 processor and rich I/O mix, are for evaluation of QorIQ T1 in networking and Ethernet applications, such as mixed control and data plane in fixed routers, switches, Internet access devices, firewall and other packet-filtering applications, as well as general-purpose embedded computing.

The T1040RDB board can help shorten your time to market. It can be used for software development and performance evaluation prior to the customers’ own board being ready.
