MC68MH360EM33L

The MC68MH360EM33L is a CPU32+ microprocessor from NXP Semiconductors featuring a single 32-bit core running at 33 MHz in a 240-pin FQFP (32×32 mm) package. Designed for embedded systems, it integrates communications-oriented coprocessor support and DRAM controller capabilities to address applications that require on-chip integration of networking and memory interfaces.

With 5 V I/O, an onboard communications processor module (CPM), a 10 Mbps Ethernet interface and serial communication controller (SCC) options, this device targets embedded designs where integrated communications and memory control reduce board-level complexity.

Key Features

• Core  CPU32+ architecture, single 32‑bit core operating at 33 MHz for deterministic embedded processing.
• Memory and Bus  Integrated DRAM controller to manage external memory, simplifying system memory interfacing.
• Communications and Coprocessors  Communications-oriented coprocessor support (CPM) and DSP communications features enable handling of protocol and data-stream tasks.
• Networking Interface  Built-in 10 Mbps Ethernet interface for networked embedded applications.
• Serial Connectivity  Additional serial interfaces provided via SCC to support peripheral and subsystem communications.
• Package and Mounting  240‑pin FQFP (32×32 mm) surface‑mount package for standard PCB assembly and thermal considerations.
• Power and I/O  5 V I/O voltage compatibility for existing 5 V embedded designs.
• Operating Range  Rated for operation from 0 °C to 70 °C, suitable for commercial-grade embedded environments.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant for lead‑free assembly and regulatory alignment.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Communications Equipment  Use the CPM and 10 Mbps Ethernet interface to implement protocol handling and network connectivity in communication modules.
