VoIP-optimized home gateway design runs Linux
Note: Geeks Rejoice!
Infineon is shipping a Linux-based hardware/software reference design for integrated access devices (IADs). The ADSL2+ Residential Gateway (RG) design is based on an Infineon MIPS32 SoC (system-on-chip) with integrated VoIP (voice-over-IP) co-processor and ADSL2/2+ transceiver. The design also offers 802.11n connectivity and a DECT (digital enhanced cordless telecommunications) base station.
Infineon's Residential Gateway design comprises:
* Danube -- A highly integrated SoC (system-on-chip) based on a 32-bit 24KEc MIPS core, and integrating a VoIP co-processor, two integrated codecs, an 8/16-bit NOR/NAND controller, and an ADSL2/2+ (asymmetric digital subscriber line) transceiver supporting data rates up to 24Mbps. I/O includes USB 2.0, two Ethernet interfaces, SPI with DMA, serial UART with hardware flow control, JTAG/EJTAG, and 32 general purpose I/Os.
