Marvell ARMADA 7020 Dual-Core CA72 Processor
with Marvell MoChi and FLC Architecture
High-Performance Multi-Core CPU System on Chip
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Marvell® ARMADA® 7020 (88F7020) is a complete system-on-chip (SoC) solution based on the latest
ARMv8 high-performance CPU technology, ideally suited for a wide range of SoHo, SMB and Enterprise class
applications. The Armada® 7020, includes a dual-core ARM Cortex-A72, bringing a high level of performance,
integration, and efficiency, and raising the performance per Watt and performance per cost bar.
88F7020 built as part of Marvell’s MoChi family of products. As the MCi interface is essentially transparent to
the driver, all the connected MCi will appear to the driver as though it is an integrated function in the 88F7020
itself, enabling a Virtual System-on-Chip (vSoC).
The 88F7020 implements the Marvell innovative Final Level Cache (FLC) architecture and technology. With
FLC, the DRAM is introduced to the system as a very large cache layer, complemented by a subsequent
hierarchy of cheaper, slower memory (e.g SSD Flash). To allow lower latency to the DRAM cache, the
88F7020 may be integrate (MCM) with an in-package memory such as LPDDR4 minimizing the access time
and reducing overall system power. The capacity of the in-package memory may be fine-tuned according to the
application needs.
Utilizing advanced caching algorithm the 88F7020 FLC technology is capable of shielding the vast majority of
the on-going memory traffic with the in-package memory, very rarely accesses the subsequent, slower memory
hierarchy in real time. Utilizing FLC technology in the system architecture allows lower overall costs, lower
power consumption and simpler board design.
The 88F7020 also supports standard high speed DDR4 interface in 32b bus widths, with optional ECC function.
