Freescale’s T4 series MPUs now feature extended reliability

The company's e6500 Power Architecture core, featuring the AltiVec SIMD Engine, is bringing leading edge processing capabilities and makes T4240 the highest performance MPU ever released by e2v with computing abilities close to 200GFLOP.

Operating in military temperature range from -55 to +125°C, the e2v T4 series offers many connectivity options, with specific calibration performed by e2v to enable high speed interfaces over extended temperature ranges. The series will also be part of e2v’s Semiconductor Lifecycle Management (SLiM) programme, which guarantees continued support for programmes requiring long-term availability.

Richard Gibbs, President of Semiconductors, e2v, commented: “The e2v extended reliability versions of Freescale’s T4 series are an suitable choice for customers looking for high performance computing in applications where there are harsh and size constrained environments and where there is limited possibility to effectively cool the electronic board.”
