Designed for industrial environments, this device combines processor performance, on‑chip communications acceleration and flexible clocking to simplify system integration for applications requiring multiple Ethernet interfaces, DRAM/SDRAM support and robust thermal range.

Key Features

• Core PowerPC G2 single 32‑bit core operating at 266 MHz, including on‑chip instruction and data caches and an MMU as described in the device hardware specifications.
• Communications Processor Module (CPM) Includes a RISC CPM/co‑processor for communications tasks, enabling offload of protocol handling and serial DMA operations.
• Ethernet Three 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interfaces for multi‑port network connectivity and embedded networking applications.
• Memory Subsystem On‑chip controllers for DRAM and SDRAM, plus separate instruction and data caches to support efficient memory access.
• Clocking and PLLs Separate PLLs for the G2 core and the CPM allow independent core and communications clocking for power/performance optimization.
• Power Separate internal logic power (1.8 V) and I/O power (3.3 V) domains; I/O operates at 3.3 V.
• Package and Mounting 480‑TBGA (37.5×37.5 mm) package with exposed pad, surface‑mount mounting and a 480‑LBGA exposed pad package case option.
• Operating Range and Qualification Industrial qualification with an operating temperature range of −40 °C to 105 °C.
• Additional Interfaces Includes I2C and multiple serial interfaces and peripheral controllers described in the device hardware specifications.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Communications Equipment Multi‑port network controllers and protocol gateways leveraging the integrated CPM and three 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports.
• Embedded Networking Appliances Routers, switches and edge devices that require on‑chip Ethernet, DMA and memory controller integration.
• Industrial Control Systems Controller and supervisory platforms that benefit from the industrial temperature range and on‑chip peripherals for deterministic I/O and communication handling.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Communications Acceleration: On‑chip RISC CPM reduces CPU load for protocol processing and serial DMA tasks, simplifying software partitioning.
