MXC300 Mobile eXtreme Convergence 3G Cellular Platform



Freescale’s latest 3G platform, the MXC300-30, is  the first platform with a 3G single core modem in the industry. The single core processor at the heart of the MXC300-30 combines a SC140e digital signal processor (DSP) based on StarCore™ technology operating at up to 250 MHz and an ARM1136™ applications processor core operating
at up to 532 MHz. The single core modem handles all the signaling protocol layers
(L1, L2 and L3) for 2.5G, 2.75G and 3G standards including GSM, GPRS, EDGE Class 12 and WCDMA.
The applications processing technology is integrated into the chip with a shared memory
system and shared peripherals, eliminating the need for an additional external  applications processor, thus helping to reduce cost. This shared memory approach enables more efficient inter-processor communication, resulting in higher performance, exceptional power management and reduced complexity.

Despite their integration, there is a strict separation between the communications and
applications processing. This clean separation of modem and applications processing dramatically reduces complexity and simplifies software development. It helps to reduce part count, size and system costs, while enhancing multimedia and communications processing performance. This separation also gives manufacturers comprehensive
scalability and flexibility across their portfolios; making it possible to increase unctionality,
decrease development time and free up critical engineering resources.
