R-Car E2 is an entry-level embedded tri-core SoC designed by Renesas for the automotive industry and introduced in late 2014. The E2 incorporates two Cortex-A7 cores operating at 1 GHz along with a SH-4A core operating at 780 MHz for real-time processing. This chip includes an Imagination PowerVR SGX540 GPU operating at 260 MHz and supports up to 2 GiB of dual-channel DDR3-1333 memory.

Cache[edit]

[Edit/Modify Cache Info]

Cache Organization
Cache is a hardware component containing a relatively small and extremely fast memory designed to speed up the performance of a CPU by preparing ahead of time the data it needs to read from a relatively slower medium such as main memory.

The organization and amount of cache can have a large impact on the performance, power consumption, die size, and consequently cost of the IC.

Cache is specified by its size, number of sets, associativity, block size, sub-block size, and fetch and write-back policies.

Note: All units are in kibibytes and mebibytes.
