Figure 4.2 shows a view of the ARMCortexA9MPxnCT component in Fast Models, with all vectored ports collapsed. This is a single component that represents a Cortex-A9 multiprocessor containing from one to four processors. The xn in the component name indicates how many processors are included in the component, so choose the one with the required number of processors for your system. The component is based on r1p0 of the Cortex-A9 processor. All variants of the ARMCortexA9MPxnCT component are described in this section, the only difference being the number of processors.

The ARMCortexA9MPxnCT component implements the following additional peripherals, that are not present in the basic Cortex-A9 processor:

These embedded peripherals are more fully documented elsewhere. See the processor technical reference manual.
