BEYOND BA22-DE DEEPLY EMBEDDED
32-bit Processor
OVERVIEW KEY BENEFITS
Efficiently designed for deeply embedded 1.79 DMIPS/MHz, +450 MHz in 65 nm
applications that use on chip instructions and Small silicon footprint (15k gates) and
data memories, Beyond BA22-DE Deeply low as 0.05 mW/Mhz on 90 nm
Embedded Processor is an excellent alternative Variable length instruction encoding,
to 8- and 16-bit microcontrollers, where additionally contributing to lesser die
performance of the IP core is a substantial area and power consumption
characteristic.
Highly configurable to allow variety of APPLICATIONS
size/performance trade-offs, BA22-DE can be Security
used as microcontroller in variety of Ethernet & IP Packet Handling
applications, ranging from mixed signal Housekeeping
processing, portable and wireless, or Portable and wireless
automotive.
