Hardware Design Guidelines—Intel®IXP43X Product Line of Network Processors

2.0System Architecture

2.1System Architecture Description

The Intel® IXP43X Product Line of Network Processors is a multifunction processor that integrates the Intel XScale® Processor (ARM* architecture compliant) with highly integrated peripheral controllers and network processor engines.

The processor is a highly integrated design, manufactured with Intel’s 0.13-µm production semiconductor process technology. This process technology, along with numerous, dedicated function peripheral interfaces and many features with the Intel XScale processor, addresses the needs of many system applications and helps reduce system costs. The processors can be configured to meet many system application and implementation needs.

Figure 2 illustrates one of the many applications for which the IXP43X network processors can be implemented. For detailed functional description, see the Intel® IXP43X Product Line of Network Processors Developer’s Manual.

2.2System Memory Map

Refer to the Intel® IXP43X Product Line of Network Processors Developer’s Manual for a complete memory map and register description of each individual module.
