MSC Q7-TI8168
Texas Instruments DSP+ARM MPU
The innovation of this Qseven module is the
combination of an ARM

Cortex A8 RISC MPU

with Texas Instruments C674x VLIW DSP core
offering up to 8000 MMACS. This powerful product
is especially suited for Medical/Industrial Vision
Systems, High-end Test &Measurement, Tracking
and Control as well as Medical/Biological Imaging.
The MSC Q7-TI8168 MPU Module incorporates a
high performance DM8168 MPU @ 1.2 GHz with
DDR3 memory, Gigabit Ethernet and industrial
interfaces including Flash memory. The module
fully supports the Qseven Standard Rev. 1.2
interface, allowing simple integration with our
range of Qseven baseboards or custom
developments.
For evaluation and design-in of the MSC Q7-
TI8168 module, MSC provides a development
platform as well as a target platform and BSPs for
operating systems like Linux, Android and
Windows Compact 7 (on request).
