Vortex86SX
32-Bit x86 Embedded SoC
1
Overview
Vortex86SX is the x86 SoC (System on Chip) with 0.13
micron process and ultra low power consumption design
(less than 1 watt). This comprehensive SoC has been
integrated with rich features, such as various I/O (RS-232,
Parallel, USB and GPIO), BIOS, WatchDog Timer, Power
Management, MTBF counter, LoC (LAN on Chip),JTAG etc.,
into a 27x27 mm, 581-pin BGA packing single chip.
The Vortex86SX is compatible with Win CE, Linux and DOS.
It integrates 32KB write through direct map L1 cache, 16-bit
ISA bus, PCI Rev. 2.1 32-bit bus interface at 33 MHz,
SDRAM, DDR2, ROM controller, IPC (Internal Peripheral
Controllers with DMA and interrupt timer/counter included),
