Support for DPAA1

[ramkrishnan]

This is a question regarding DPAA1 and DPAA2. If I am to decide on a chipset primarily used for network packet processing, is it better to wait for a chipset that supports DPAA2 or go with the T4240 which supports DPAA1. Will the DPAA1 go away and be replaced with DPAA2. It is also nice that the DPAA2 has the ODP support. I also see that some demo applications that were supported on the older SDK's are not there anymore on the newer 1.9 and 2.0 SDK's. Any recommendations will be helpful..

Regards,

Ram

If you wish to start your design now, and you need the maximum performance

device, then select T4240. It's part of the longevity program, if that

is your concern:

DPAA2-based devices of a comparable packet processing performance are

future products,  their schedule is NDA information. If you are

interested in future chips, discuss it with your distributor.

Have a great day,
