In addition to speeding development, this module provides an optimal P2 building block for system integrators and designers to include in their products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Propeller 2 P2X8C4M64P chip contains over 32 million transistors and \u0026gt;70 mm2 of custom silicon, 10x that of a typical microcontroller. The P2 contains 8 independent processors with analog pad rings and Smart-pin functionality at all 64 I\/O pins.  Each smart I\/O pin is capable of many autonomous analog and digital functions, including ADC, DAC, PWM, USB, SERIAL, Waveform generation, SMPS, Comparator, SCHMITT and LOGIC modes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe P2 Edge Module includes the exposed-pad 100-pin TQFP P2X8C4M64P, core and I\/O power regulators, power filtering capacitors, crystal, flash memory, boot configuration switches, and two user-configurable on-board LEDs to indicate system states.  The PCB's six-layer design features solid thermal and signal reference planes isolating each signal layer.  The design is optimized for low-noise analog and digital operation, and with low temperature rise even at high-speed operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew features for Rev D include increasing PCB from four layers to 6 layers, and onboard switching power supplies' maximum output current increasing from 2 A to 3 A, with switching frequency changing from 2.5 MHz to 750 kHz.
