µPD30122
VR4122TM
64-/32-BIT MICROPROCESSOR
DESCRIPTION
The µPD30122 (VR4122) is one of NEC Electronics’ VR SeriesTM RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer)
microprocessors and is a high-performance 64-/32-bit microprocessor employing the MIPSTM RISC architecture.
The VR4122 uses the high-performance, super power-saving VR4120TM as the CPU core, and has many peripheral
functions such as a DMA controller, serial interface, IrDA interface, and real-time clock. Configured with these
functions, the VR4122 is suitable for high-speed battery-driven portable information systems. The external memory
bus width can be selected from 32 bits and 16 bits, realizing high-speed data transfer.
Detailed function descriptions are provided in the following user’s manuals. Be sure to read them before
designing.
