Freescale and Jungo Team to Deliver PowerQUICC(TM) Architecture-based Residential and Business Gateways

Freescale Semiconductor (NYSE:FSL) (NYSE:FSL.B) and Jungo Ltd.have joined forces to deliver platform solutions for residential andbusiness gateway products. The solutions are based on the MPC8272PowerQUICC(TM) II processor family containing a PowerPC(R) core andpowered by Jungo's popular OpenRG and OpenSMB software platforms.Jungo is a leading provider of home, SOHO and SMB gateway softwareplatforms.

Freescale and Jungo's combined solution bundles OpenRG and OpenSMBsoftware with Freescale's MPC8272 Application Development System(ADS). The two companies are jointly demonstrating the residential andbusiness gateway platform solution at the Network Systems DesignConference (booth #504) in San Jose this week.

"Freescale's leadership in the processor market, combined withJungo's feature-rich software, allows our customers to introduce awide range of best-in-class networking devices, broadband routers andgateways," said Udi Yuhjtman, Jungo's vice president of businessdevelopment. "Our relationship with Freescale represents ourcommitment to introduce to market highly integrated and completehardware and software platforms to help our customers, OEMs, ODMs andtelcos get to market fast."

The bundled solutions are designed to shorten development cyclesand accelerate time-to-market for customer premises equipment (CPE)developed around the PowerQUICC architecture and Jungo's softwareplatforms. Target applications include smart residential gateways,DSL/cable routers, integrated access devices (IADs), wireless accesspoints, voice gateways, VPN routers, home storage routers, office-in-abox 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 JoycePutscher. "We see this market approaching 30 million gateways in2009."

"Explosive growth in broadband and triple-play services is drivingstrong demand for residential and business gateway products, and ourcustomers look to us for fast time-to-market solutions," said LynelleMcKay, vice president and general manager of Freescale's DigitalSystems Division. "Partnering with Jungo puts market-leadingevaluation and development tools based on PowerQUICC architecture andOpenRG and OpenSMB software platforms into the hands of gatewaydevelopers -- fast!"

About the MPC8272 Application Development System (ADS)

Freescale's MPC8272ADS system provides a comprehensive evaluationplatform for MPC8272 family processors. The MPC8272ADS board features64MB of SDRAM attached to a 60x bus and an 8MB program flash SIMMsupporting up to 32MB. On-board interfaces include JTAG/COP, DualUART, USB 1.1, two 100/10-Base-T Fast Ethernets, and a 155 Mbps ATMUNI with optical interface. Using ADS on-board resources and adebugger, developers can download and run code, set breakpoints,display memory registers and connect proprietary hardware throughexpansion connectors. The resulting code can be used in a wide rangeof PowerQUICC II processor-based systems.

About the MPC8272 PowerQUICC II Family

Freescale's MPC8272 processor family offers exceptionalintegration with features and interfaces optimized for cost-sensitivesystem designs. MPC8272 family devices incorporate the embeddedPowerPC 603e core in speeds of 266MHz, 300MHz and 400MHz, with busspeeds up to 133MHz. The devices also feature a 266MHz, 32-bitRISC-based Communications Processor Module (CPM) to handlecommunications protocol acceleration and termination. Freescale'sintegrated security engine supports DES, 3DES, MD-5, SHA-1, AES andARC-4 encryption algorithms, as well as a Public Key accelerator andon-chip Random Number Generator. MPC8272 family devices withintegrated security include the MPC8272 and the MPC8248; the MPC8271and MPC8247 are available for applications that do not requireencryption acceleration.
