32-bit RISC microprocessor: TX39 Family

The TX39 Family of RISC microprocessors for embedded use were developed by Toshiba based on the R3000A architecture designed by MIPS Technologies, Inc. It is an original Toshiba 32-bit processor family. Using the TX39/H or the high-speed TX39/H2, TX39/H3 as the CPU core for gate arrays and cell-based ICs, you can accomplish a high level of integration in your system.

Features

High-performance RISC technology
  • R3000A architecture
  • Internal operating frequency
    TX39/H: 92 MHz, TX39/H2, H3: 133 MHz
  • Built-in cache memory
  • Non-blocking load function
    • The instructions which follow the instruction currently being executed are executed while the cache is being refilled.
  • DSP function
    • 32-bit multiply-accumulate (MAC) operations take only one clock cycle to execute.
Functions suitable for embedded applications
  • Reduced code size and improved performance
    • Use of branch-likely instructions
    • Hardware interlock function
  • Increased real-time capability
    • Cache lock function
  • Real-time debugger system connection
    • Real-time debugging is possible while cache is on.
Low power consumption
  • Low power consumption modes
  • Clock stop function
Ideal as CPU core in embedded arrays / cell-based ICs
  • TX39/H2: 0.25 μm process technology
  • TX39/H3: 0.18 μm process technology
  • Complete development environment
Recommendable Application
  • Mobile terminals, networks, car navigation
  • They can be used for various applications, not only for above application but also for other purpose.
