Quatro 4110
Programmable SOC Solution
for Printing Appliances
Product Brief
Description (continued)
Processing Modules
The 4110 incorporates the following processing modules:
• 150 MHz ARM9E CPU core
• 210 MHz Quatro DSP core
• 150 MHz JBIG compression/decompression core
Interfaces
The 4110 provides all the interfaces required in an appliance-type
printer:
• 105 MHz 16-bit SDRAM interface
• USB 2.0 hi-speed device interface (including PHY)
• Memory card interface: CompactFlash (including Microdrive),
Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO, Secure Digital, xD-Picture
Card, MultiMediaCard and SmartMedia
• Scanner AFE and control interface (supporting CCD and
CIS scanners)
• Laser printer interface
• Programmable inkjet printer interface
• SPI serial flash interface
By pairing the ARM9E CPU core with the Quatro DSP core, the
Quatro architecture provides OEMs with a unique combination of
high-performance processing and easy-to-use programmability. The
ARM9E CPU core, the established leader in embedded CPU cores,
delivers high-performance system and control processing with dense
code size and a highly regarded software development tool suite.
• System bus interface
• General-purpose I/O interface
• Serial port
• JTAG
Key Specifications
• 0.18 micron process
The Quatro DSP core, the next generation of the parallel processing
DSP core used in Zoran’s PM-44i and PM-44ix discrete DSPs,
delivers unmatched performance in image processing. The Quatro
DSP core utilizes an advanced single instruction, multiple data
(SIMD) parallel processing architecture to provide very high
performance image processing—up to 840 million multiply-
accumulates (MACs) per second at 210 MHz.
• On-chip PLLs
• Full scan design and on-chip BIST for high production test coverage
• Core voltage 1.8V
• I/O voltage 3.3V (5V tolerant)
• Power dissipation <3W at maximum clock speed

The programming environment for 4110 is based on the ARM
Developer Suite, widely recognized as one of the best embedded
development tool sets available. To these proven ARM9E tools Zoran
integrates a set of tools for programming the Quatro DSP—C
compiler assembler, linker, simulator, debugger, and libraries. Zoran’s
extensive library of optimized image processing algorithms makes
developing image processing pipelines easy.

To further shorten time-to-market, Zoran provides OEMs with a
reference design for an inkjet MFP. The reference design includes
both a controller board and firmware. The reference controller board
also serves as a development board that customers can use to
prototype their own system code.
