ARM Cortex A9 CPU subsystem

Processor subsystem based on the processor ARM Cortex A9, and has a dual-core configuration.

Key Features:

Each core has the following features:

  • ARM v7 processor with a clock frequency of 600 MHz
  • 32K L1 Instruction Cache parity
  • 32 KB L1 data cache parity
  • Built-in FPU operations for single and double precision data scalar floating-point
  • The memory management unit (MMU)
  • Instruction set support for ARM, Thumb2 and Thumb2-EE
  • Program Trace Macrocell (PTM) and CoreSight © component for software debugging
  • 32-bit timer with 8-bit divisor
  • The internal watchdog (also works as a timer)

Dual core configuration completes a common set of components:

  • Snoop Control Unit (SCU) for controlling communication between processes, cache memory and cache memory and transfer RAM, cache coherency
  • Shared interrupt control unit (GCA) is configured to support 128 independent interrupt sources with software configurable priorities and routing between the two nuclei
  • 64-bit global timer with an 8-bit divisor
  • Accelerator coherence port (ACP)
  • Support for parity for fault detection performance for other internal memories
  • 512 KB single 8-way associative L2 cache with ECC support
  • L2 cache controller based on ARM PL310 IP released
  • Dual asynchronous 64-bit AMBA 3 AXI interface with the ability to filter on the second use one port to access DDR memory
  • JTAG-interface and monitor port: debug and trace may be prohibited by OTP

Information given by you is really very useful and valuable for me. I have to write an article in my class about this theme and thanks a lot for it. I even didn’t know about Laboratory and Unarmed stick insects. Thanks a lot Free Slider Revolution

Could not thank you more than enough for the posts on your web-site. I know you placed a lot of time and energy into all of them and really hope you know how considerably I enjoy it. I hope I will do something identical for another individual at some point. Download Slider Revolution

Thanks for making go over doing this, I’m really do measurements combined with seriously like mastering more on this situation. Should possibilities, because you acquire experience, is it possible you opinions bringing up-to-date a person’s internet page that includes extra details? This is very useful for for me.
