New 3rd Gen Diamond Controllers
This family of five upward-compatible processor cores is based on a common Xtensa architecture and provides the price/performance/low-power required for a wide range of embedded control functions in today's compute-intensive dataplane functions. Improvements in this third generation of Diamond Standard controllers deliver up to 15 percent faster clock speed, up to 20 percent smaller die area and up to 15 percent less power consumption.
