Freescale is sampling its new, SOI-based MPC8610 integrated host processor, which the company says offers significant power, board real estate and cost savings. The chip is engineered to deliver breakthrough performance, connectivity and integration for embedded applications that process or display graphical images, such as kiosk voice and facial recognition, robotics, in-vehicle infotainment equipment, cockpit displays, single-board computers and multi-function printers. Full production is planned for mid-2008.
