QorIQ LS1024A 32-bit Communications Processor Reference Design Board

The QorIQ LS1024A communications processor addresses a wide variety of applications ranging from high-end VoIP and video-enabled home gateways, small-to-mid-sized business (SMB) and high performance security appliances to Ethernet powered 802.11n enterprise access points and consumer networked attached storage products. The QorIQ LS1024A reference design board (LS1024ARDB) is a compact form-factor tool that enables evaluation of the LS1024A solution for these and other low-end networking applications. The LS1024ARDB also features an expansion connector suitable for adding additional components such as an LCD panel.
