Overview
The QorIQ Qonverge BSC9131 and BSC9132 processors are highly integrated System on Chip (SoC)
devices targeting network-connected industrial nodes and other systems requiring the computational
power of a digital signal processor not met by off the shelf solutions today. The two devices combine
1-2 e500 cores, built on Power Architecture® technology and 1-2 StarCore SC3850 DSP cores, each
• JTRS
running up to 1.2 GHz with a rich set of peripherals. The SoCs feature our trust architecture, which
• Smart munitions

• Unmanned vehicles
and BSC9132 SoCs also offer the integration of IEEE® 1588v2 on dual Ethernet ports, enabling time
• Software-defined radio
Industrial
• Factory automation
• Image analytics
addition to cryptographic acceleration engines for secure off-chip communications. The BSC9131
stamping and redundancy for various industrial networking applications.
The integration of processing cores provides the advantages of reducing required board space,
memory chip count and power by up to 50% versus discrete processing solutions. In addition,
the specialized processing of heterogeneous cores can allow you to move from expensive ASIC
designs to a more programmable, off-the-shelf solution and, as part of the larger QorIQ family,
the BSC9131 and BSC9132 SoCs software compatible with more than 100 other Freescale
Enterprise
communications processors, giving you the ability to reuse code and protect your software
• Voice gateways/PBX
• Video gateways
