*****************************************************************************************************************

The QorIQ LS1 family, which includes the LS1021A communications processor, is built on Layerscape architecture, the industry's first software-aware, core-agnostic networking architecture to offer unprecedented efficiency and scale.

A member of the value-performance tier, the QorIQ LS1021A processor provides extensive integration and power efficiency for fanless, small form factor enterprise networking applications. Incorporating dual ARM® Cortex®-A7 cores running up to 1.0 GHz, the LS1021A processor delivers pre-silicon CoreMark® performance of over 6,000, as well as virtualization support, advanced security features and the broadest array of high-speed interconnects and optimized peripheral features ever offered in a sub-3 W processor.

DAB-Embedded company is developing Windows Embedded Compact 2013 and Compact 7 BSPs for QorIQ LS1 series.

TWR-LS1021A as main hardware platform was used:

QorIQ LS1 BSP can be used for next applications:

• Industrial: Secure Asset Management (IoT, M2M, SCADA)
• Industrial: Data concentrator
• Industrial: Robotics (with CoDeSys Runtime)
• Industrial: Programmable logic Controller (with CoDeSys Runtime)
• Industrial: Elevator control
• Industrial: HMI enabled controllers

Now BSP has next features:

EBOOT bootloader with:

• ARM Cortex-A7 core initialization (+ NEON/VFP initialization)
• Clocks initialization
• Cache initialization          
• DDR3L initialization
• Core timer initialization (as EBOOT main timer)
• SD/MMC support (boot WINCE image)
• NAND support
• GPIO support
• CPLD control
• I2C support
• DSPI support
• UART support (output debug messages)
• LCD (24-bit) support (display logo)
• Ethernet support (VeTSEC)

• Cache initialization
• Interrupt controller (GIC) initialization
• Vector float point (VFP) unit initialization
• Initialization translation table for memory management unit (MMU)
• Dedicated timer initialization for the OS (fixed or variable)
• Core profiler initialization
• Debug output initialization (UART1)
• Kernel Independent Transport Layer (KITL) via the GEMAC network peripheral (with support of operation via interrupts or by method of continuous scanning) for core debugging
• Virtual Network Miniport (VMINI) bridge for simultaneous operation of the core debugger and network adapter in the OS
• Watchdog timer initialization
• Power management system initialization with the support of the OEMIdle() idleness subroutine (where WFI instruction should be used)

• QuadSPI Flash
• NAND Flash
• SD/SDHC/eMMC memory, SDIO devices
• Display controller (2D-ACE/DCU, 24-bit RGB) and TFT display (TWR-LCD-RGB 480x272 LCD display) with hardware layers support
• General digital I/O (GPIO)
• I2C bus
• SPI bus (DSPI)
• USB 2.0 with ULP
• USB 3.0 with integrated PHY
• UART
• VeTSEC Ethernet complex
• FlexTimers

• PCIe Gen2 controllers
• SATA 3.0 controllers
• SAI + ASRC + SPDIF (audio block)
• QUICC Engine ULite Block
• FlexCAN
