V5 ColdFire Core: Full Superscalar

• Performance Targets:
  • 1.3x - 1.4x V4{e} core performance in same process technology;
  • 2x V4{e} system-level performance in next-generation process
• Maintain attributes of family heritage
  • Fully-synthesizable, highly-configurable designs for SoC
• Compiled RAMs for cache and local memories
• Provide SoC designers with access to key price/performance variables
  • Backward binary compatibility to preserve software investment
• Implementations in 0.13 micron
  • 300 - 366 MHz, 549 - 670 Dhrystone 2.1 MIPS
  • 5.2 mm 2 V5e core-only, 9.6 mm 2 V5e core + 32K I-/32K D- + 4K
• Innovative architectural solutions meeting varied customer demands and achieving superior system performance through optional feature integration
• Continuing to reap the benefits of 100% synthesizability, easily moving to new, higher performance technologies
• Building on the ColdFire legacy of low-cost, high performance solutions and extending the family in both performance and integration
