1 Introduction
The T2080 QorIQ multicore processor combines four dual-
threaded e6500 Power Architecture® processor cores for a
total of eight threads with high-performance datapath
acceleration logic and network and peripheral bus interfaces
required for networking, telecom/datacom, data center,
wireless infrastructure, and mil/aerospace applications.
2 Summary of benefits
This chip can be used for combined control, datapath, and
application layer processing in data centers, WAN
optimization controllers, application delivery controllers,
routers, switches, gateways, application and storage servers,
and general-purpose embedded computing systems. It delivers
approximately two times the computing horsepower of the
P2040 and P3041, Freescale's current flagship mid-range
QorIQ multicore SoC. Like other QorIQ SoCs, this chip's high
level of integration offers significant space, weight, and power
benefits compared to multiple discrete devices.

3 Application examples
This chip is well-suited for applications that are highly compute-intensive, I/O-intensive, or both.
3.1 1U security appliance
This figure shows a 1U security appliance built around a single SoC. The QorIQ DPAA accelerates basic packet
classification, filtering, and packet queuing, while the crypto accelerator, regex accelerator, and compression/decompression
accelerator perform high throughput content processing. The high single threaded and aggregate DMIPS of the core CPUs
provide the processing horsepower for complex classification and flow state tracking required for proxying applications as
well as heuristic traffic analysis and policy enforcement.
The SoC's massive integration significantly reduces system BOM cost. SATA hard drives connect directly to the SoC's
integrated controllers, and an Ethernet switch is only required if more than eight 1 GE ports or 4 10 GE ports are required.
The SoC supports PCIe and Serial RapidIO for expansion.

3.2 Radio node controller
Some of the more demanding packet-processing applications are found in the realm of wireless infrastructure. These systems
have to interwork between wireless link layer protocols and IP networking protocols. Wireless protocol complexity is high,
and includes scheduling, retransmission, and encryption with algorithms specific to cellular wireless access networks.
Connecting to the IP network offers wireless infrastructure tremendous cost savings, but introduces all the security threats
found in the IP world. The chip's network and peripheral interfaces provide it with the flexibility to connect to DSPs, and to

wireless link layer framing ASICs/FPGAs . While the Data Path Acceleration Architecture offers encryption acceleration for
both wireless and IP networking protocols, in addition to packet filtering capability on the IP networking side, multiple
virtual CPUs may be dedicated to data path processing in each direction.
3.3 Intelligent network adapter
The exact form factor of this card may vary but the concepts are similar. A chip is placed on a small form factor card with an
x8 PCIe connector and multiple 10 G Ethernet ports. This card is then used as inline accelerator that provides both line rate
networking and intelligent programmable offload from a host processor subsystem in purpose built appliances and servers.
This figure shows an example of a T2080 built as a PCI Express form-factor supporting virtualization through SR-IOV with
quad 10 G physical networking interfaces.
