-A35 processor
The Cortex
‑
A35 processor is a product designed to give mid-range instruction execution performance
with low power consumption. It is highly configurable, allowing you to select features that are
appropriate for the SoC in which it is used.
The major configuration options are:
• One to four Armv8-A compliant cores with automatic data cache coherency.
• One shared L2 cache.
• An AXI, ACE, or CHI system bus interface.
The processor also contains:
• Logic to help with power management.
• GICv4 interrupt capability.
• A complete CoreSight subsystem to support embedded debug in each core.
• An optional ACP that allows for I/O coherent operations with an external master, for example a DMA
engine.
The following figure shows an example configuration with four cores, an L2 cache, and a CHI system
bus interface.
