PDA6T6R61220

The PDA6T6R61220 is a system-on-chip (SoC) solution with LPDDR4 memory technology. As a powerful and integrated device, PDA6T6R61220 can support multiple application fields such as automotive infotainment, connected home environment, industrial control, and medical imaging etc.

PDA6T6R61220 mainly composed of three different aspects, including a quad-core Cortex-A53 processor, an embedded low-power memory, and a some related peripherals. The 32-bit Quad Cortex-A53 processor is designed to be efficient but still to deliver high performance. The Quad Cortex-A53 processor is operating on frequencies up to 1.3GHz with built-in FlexRAM and two memory controllers for maximum throughput and bandwidth. With the integration of Image Signal Processors (ISPs), the PDA6T6R61220 can be able to support dual camera captures up to 20MP. The package of PDA6T6R61220 contains the PMIC and Ethernet PHY by default.

In terms of the embedded low-power memory, the PDA6T6R61220 is based on dual LPDDR4 SDRAM and contains several banks. The low-power integrated DRAM is designed for both average and peak power-saving scenarios, enabling low-standby power consumption. Besides, the advanced built-in memory technology supports data scrambling, which can significantly reduce external memory power while suppressing interference and providing longer battery lifetime.

The available peripheral parts on the PDA6T6R61220 are extensive, which can be divided into several categories. The included I/O peripherals provide general-purpose interfaces, enabling a wide range of applications. The I/O peripherals consist of USB 2.0, SPI, I2C, UART, MMC/SD controller, and CAN controller. In terms of multimedia features, the PDA6T6R61220 consists of integrated image signal processors, MPEG codecs, and 3D graphics. The display controller supports dual HDMI up to 4Kp60 resolution, besides a VESA-standard DisplayPort with up to 4Kp60 resolution.

The working principle of PDA6T6R61220 continues to the fundamentals of a multipronged system-on-chip (SoC) approach. Essentially, it leverages four Cortex-A53 cores operating at a maximum frequency of 1.3GHz. As each processor is independently clocked, the performance of individual cores can be managed separately. For applications that require intensive computation, the four cores can be clocked together at the same frequency, which allows the entire SoC to work at the highest frequency possible.

The processor is also able to access memory through two dedicated controllers, supporting up to 32 bits of encoding per operation. The memory controllers also handle data scrambled and writing data to multiple banks of memory simultaneously. As for the embedded memory, the PDA6T6R61220 supports a wide range of memory configurations, including LPDDR4 SDRAM and FlexRam, which is an embedded low-power memory technology optimized for low-power devices.

The PDA6T6R61220 also includes multiple peripherals, such as multiple I/O interfaces, image signal processors, and a wide range of multimedia controllers, which enable it to support a wide range of applications. Furthermore, advanced features such as dual digital audio input and supports for dual cameras up to 20MP, USB 3.0, and DisplayPort 1.4 are also supported, making PDA6T6R61220 a perfect choice for automotive infotainment, connected home environment, industrial control, and medical imaging etc.
