MC68MH360AI25L

The MC68MH360AI25L is a CPU32+ microprocessor in the MC68 series from NXP Semiconductors. It implements a single 32‑bit core running at 25 MHz with integrated communications and memory controller functionality targeted at embedded systems.

Designed for embedded communications and control applications, the device combines a CPU32+ core with on‑chip communications co‑processors and DRAM controller capability to simplify system design and reduce external component count.

Key Features

• Core  The MC68MH360AI25L integrates a CPU32+ single core with a 32‑bit bus width for deterministic embedded processing.
• Clock & I/O Voltage  Operates at a 25 MHz core clock frequency with 5 V I/O signaling for compatibility with legacy embedded systems.
• Communications Co‑processors  Includes communications and CPM co‑processor functionality to offload protocol and data‑movement tasks from the main CPU.
• Memory Controller  Built‑in DRAM controller to manage external dynamic memory interfaces and simplify board-level memory design.
• Network Interface  Integrated 10 Mbps Ethernet controller (1 port) for low‑speed network connectivity.
• Serial and Channel Interfaces  Additional serial channel controller (SCC) support and QMC (QUICC Multichannel Controller) features for multi‑channel serial routing and time‑slot assignment as documented in the series reference materials.
• Package & Mounting  Supplied in a 240‑lead FQFP package (32 × 32 mm) and specified for surface‑mount assembly.
• Operating Range & Compliance  Commercial temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C and RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Communications  Multi‑channel serial routing, protocol handling and low‑speed Ethernet enable deployment in communication interface modules and gateways.
• Network Equipment  Use in network control and peripheral functions where a dedicated communications co‑processor and 10 Mbps Ethernet are required.
• Industrial and Control Systems  On‑board DRAM controller and serial channel support make the device suitable for control logic, I/O aggregation and supervisory tasks.
• Legacy and Mixed‑Signal Systems  5 V I/O and a 240‑lead FQFP package support integration into existing embedded platforms and high‑pin‑count designs.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Communications Co‑processing: On‑chip communications and CPM functionality reduce the need for external protocol processors and simplify firmware partitioning.
• Onboard DRAM Controller: Built‑in DRAM controller lowers board complexity and shortens development time for memory‑backed applications.
• Flexible Serial I/O (QMC/SCC): QMC and SCC features documented in the MC68 series provide multi‑channel serial routing and time‑slot assignment for telecom and data‑streaming use cases.
• High‑pin‑count FQFP Package: The 240‑lead (32 × 32 mm) FQFP enables extensive I/O breakdown and dense signal routing for complex embedded systems.
• Commercial Temperature and RoHS Compliance: Rated 0 °C to 70 °C and RoHS compliant for standard commercial embedded deployments.
• Standard 5 V I/O: Compatibility with 5 V signaling simplifies integration into existing boards and peripheral interfaces.
