This Product Selection Guide contains information to help select products in the System On Chip (SoC) category on DigiKey.com
Devices in the System-on-Chip family combine on one device substrate several computing system components which traditionally would be implemented as separate devices, such as a general-purpose microprocessor, an FPGA co-processor, and a graphics controller for generation of display data. While limited amounts of data storage resources may also be incorporated, the provision of an interface to external storage devices is typical.
SelectionCharacteristics
Architecture: Indicates functional blocks that are incorporated into a device.
Core Processor: Identifies the microprocessor or processor technology that serves as the primary computational engine for a board or device.
Flash Size: Amount of non-volatile memory available available in the SoC.
RAM Size: Amount of Random Access Memory available in the SoC.
Peripherals: Enumerates common functions that are incorporated within a device or specifically provisioned for by a device’s architecture.
Connectivity: Enumerates the standardized communication protocols for which a device provides hardware support.
Speed: Indicate the clock frequency of the device. This directly influences the overall rate computations that can be done in the device.
Primary Attributes: Provides a brief description of the programmable logic core incorporated in a device.
Operating Temperature: Recommended operating temperature, typically given in a range or as a maximum. Exceeding these temperatures may affect performance or damage the device and/or other system components.
Package / Case: Describes the footprint and type of body the item has based on a general standard.
Supplier Device Package: Describes the footprint and type of body the item has based on what the manufacturer names it.
