QorIQ LS1012A Reference Design Board
The QorIQ LS1012A Reference Design Board is a compact form factor tool that enables
evaluation and software development for a broad range of applications.
OVERVIEW
The QorIQ LS1012A communications processor addresses a
wide variety of applications such as consumer NAS, battery-
powered mobile NAS, entry-level broadband gateway, value-
tier IoT gateways, trusted gateways, Industrial automation,
building control, networked audio, Ethernet drives and more.
The QorIQ LS1012A reference design board (LS1012ARDB)
is a compact form-factor tool that enables evaluation of the
LS1012A solution for these and other low-end networking
applications. The LS1012ARDB also features an expansion
connector suitable for adding additional components such as
Arduino^® shields.
The QorIQ LS1012ARDB can help shorten your time-to-market
by exercising most capabilities of the device and can serve as
a reference for hardware development. It can also be used as
a debug tool to check behaviors on the board compared to
behaviors seen on customer boards. The board can be used
for software development and performance evaluation prior to
the customer’s own board being ready.
The LS1012A processor is a cost-effective, power-efficient
and highly integrated system-on-chip design that extends
the reach of NXP’s Value Performance line of QorIQ
communications processors into the ultra-value tier. Featuring
an extremely power-efficient 64-bit ARM^® Cortex^®-A53 core
core running at up to 800 MHz and yielding over 2,000
CoreMarks, the LS1012A will deliver high packet processing
performance and low power consumption.
Additional functionally includes an integrated hardware packet
acceleration engine, together with high-speed interfaces
and support for DDR3L running at 1000 MHz. High-speed
peripherals include PCIe^® Gen2, Super Speed USB3.0,
USB2.0, SATA3.0 and dual Gigabit Ethernet controllers, with
support for RGMII, and SGMII that can accommodate 2.5 Gbit
Ethernet PHYs. To deliver outstanding security performance,
the LS1012A features a hardware-based acceleration engine
to support Secure Boot, and networking with both ARM^®
TrustZone™ and NXP’s QorIQ Trust Architecture.
The LS1012ARDB comes in a compact 5.59 in x 5.59 in form
factor which allows mounting in an enclosure. An SDIO Wi-Fi^®
module is included to facilitate evaluation and development
of Wi-Fi connectivity solutions.
