SAN FRANCISCO -- Raza Microelectronics, Inc. (RMI®), aleading supplier of processors for communications and consumer applications, todayannounced the XLS Processor Family, a mid range to entry level, price optimizedfamily positioned below the XLR processor family. The XLS is a general purposeprocessor, with a high level of programmability, scalability, intelligent packetmanagement and the ability to combine control plane, data plane and securityoperations into a System-on-a-Chip (SoC) Processor.
Leveraging key technology from RMI’s flagship XLR processor, including its MIPSbasedmulti-core, multi-thread architecture, the XLS Processor provides the speed,scalability and innovation necessary for mid-range to entry-level applications whilemaintaining software compatibility throughout both product families. The XLS productfamily addresses applications where PCB real estate and power are a premium, aswell as those requiring integrated network connectivity, security and compressionacceleration options. The XLS product family consists of the 600 Series, 400 Series,200 Series, and features unprecedented power and performance for embeddedcommunication, telecom, enterprise wireless and wired-line LAN, and SMBnetworking.
The XLS Processor family accelerates packet oriented applications essential forsecurity appliances, wireless access points and switches, ATCA and AMC servicecards, secured wire-line routers and switches, and telecom media gateways, radiocontrollers and network signaling products.
“The XLS Processor exemplifies our technology leadership and exh ibits theinnovation and capability of our design team here at RMI. We believe that it is theright product with the right features for our most demanding customers,” said LanceSmith, vice president and general manager, Scalable Processor Solutions at RMI.“This entry level to mid- range offering gives our customers a feature rich, highperformance yet cost optimized solution enabling them to further penetrate acrossdiverse products and geographies which will in turn result in continued growth.”
