Freescale and Jungo team to deliver PowerQUICC™ architecture-based residential and business gateways
Combination of PowerQUICC II processors and Jungo software
provides scalable, cost-effective platform for home and office
networking equipment
SAN JOSE, Calif. November 2, 2005
Freescale Semiconductor (NYSE:FSL, FSL.B)
and Jungo Ltd. have joined forces to deliver platform solutions
for residential and business gateway products. The solutions are
based on the MPC8272 PowerQUICC™ II processor family
containing a PowerPC® core and powered by Jungo’s
popular OpenRG and OpenSMB software platforms. Jungo is a leading
provider of home, SOHO and SMB gateway software platforms.
Freescale and Jungo’s combined solution bundles OpenRG
and OpenSMB software with Freescale’s MPC8272 Application
Development System (ADS).

"Freescale’s leadership in the processor market,
combined with Jungo’s feature-rich software, allows our
customers to introduce a wide range of best-in-class networking
devices, broadband routers and gateways,” said Udi
Yuhjtman, Jungo’s vice president of business development.
"Our relationship with Freescale represents our commitment to
introduce to market highly integrated and complete hardware and
software platforms to help our customers, OEMs, ODMs and telcos
get to market fast.”
The bundled solutions are designed to shorten development
cycles and accelerate time-to-market for customer premises
equipment (CPE) developed around the PowerQUICC architecture and
Jungo’s software platforms. Target applications include
smart residential gateways, DSL/cable routers, integrated access
devices (IADs), wireless access points, voice gateways, VPN
routers, home storage routers, office-in-a box and other CPE/
SOHO and SMB networking products.
"The residential gateway market is seeing significant growth,
driven heavily by telco deployments," says In-Stat analyst Joyce
Putscher. "We see this market approaching 30 million gateways in
2009."
“Explosive growth in broadband and triple-play services
is driving strong demand for residential and business gateway
products, and our customers look to us for fast time-to-market
solutions,” said Lynelle McKay, vice president and general
manager of Freescale’s Digital Systems Division.
“Partnering with Jungo puts market-leading evaluation and
development tools based on PowerQUICC architecture and OpenRG and
OpenSMB software platforms into the hands of gateway
developers—fast!”
About the MPC8272 Application Development System (ADS)
Freescale’s MPC8272ADS system provides a comprehensive
evaluation platform for MPC8272 family processors. The MPC8272ADS
board features 64MB of SDRAM attached to a 60x bus and an 8MB
program flash SIMM supporting up to 32MB. On-board interfaces
include JTAG/COP, Dual UART, USB 1.1, two 100/10-Base-T Fast
Ethernets, and a 155 Mbps ATM UNI with optical interface. Using
ADS on-board resources and a debugger, developers can download
and run code, set breakpoints, display memory registers and
connect proprietary hardware through expansion connectors. The
resulting code can be used in a wide range of PowerQUICC II
processor-based systems.
About the MPC8272 PowerQUICC II Family
Freescale’s MPC8272 processor family offers exceptional
integration with features and interfaces optimized for
cost-sensitive system designs. MPC8272 family devices incorporate
the embedded PowerPC 603e core in speeds of 266MHz, 300MHz and
400MHz, with bus speeds up to 133MHz. The devices also feature a
266MHz, 32-bit RISC-based Communications Processor Module (CPM)
to handle communications protocol acceleration and termination.
Freescale’s integrated security engine supports DES, 3DES,
MD-5, SHA-1, AES and ARC-4 encryption algorithms, as well as a
Public Key accelerator and on-chip Random Number Generator.
MPC8272 family devices with integrated security include the
MPC8272 and the MPC8248; the MPC8271 and MPC8247 are available
for applications that do not require encryption acceleration. For
