Driving the Digital Lifestyle
Processors Quatro SOCs Solutions
The Quatro 4110 is a highly integrated, fully programmable
system-on-a-chip (SOC) solution for the emerging class of
appliance-type printers. Based on Zoranâs Quatro architecture,
the 4110 incorporates two proven processorsâARM9E RISC
CPU core and Quatro SIMD DSP coreâto provide original
equipment manufacturers (OEMs) with an easy-to-program,
high-performance controller platform. The 4110 is ideal for
applications such as color inkjet multi-function peripherals
(MFPs), monochrome and color laser MFPs, direct-connect
digital photo printers, and set-top box printersâany printer that
involves one or more PC-independent functions.

Description
PC-Independent Printing
The market for personal printers is beginning to undergo a dramatic
shiftâaway from traditional PC-centric printing peripherals and
toward new PC-independent printing appliances. Fueling this shift is
the rapid growth of digital photography, home Internet, and wireless
connectivity. As these fast-expanding technologies make their way
into the home, they are driving demand for a new class of appliance-
type printers that allow image-rich content such as web pages, digital
photos, and scanned documents to be printed without ever using a
PC. To meet the more demanding requirements of this emerging
class of appliance-type printers Zoran has created the Quatro 4110.
Programmable Platform
The 4110 is a highly integrated SOC solution for appliance-type
printers that OEMs can program to implement the features and
associated image processing pipeline required across a range of
products. Because it is fully programmable, the 4110 offers OEMs
significant time-to-market advantages over conventional ASIC
solutions.
Quatro Architecture
The 4110 is based on Zoranâs Quatro architecture. Quatro is a
scalable, extensible architecture for constructing programmable SOC
solutions for imaging and printing devices.
At the heart of the Quatro architecture are four key elements:
⢠ARM9E 32-bit RISC CPU core
⢠Quatro 4-datapath SIMD DSP core
⢠Industry-standard internal bus
⢠Easy-to-use C-based programming environment
