MC68MH360RC25L

The MC68MH360RC25L is a CPU32+ 32-bit microprocessor IC running at 25 MHz in a 241-PGA (47.24 × 47.24 mm) package. It combines a CPU32+ core with a communications-focused companion (CPM) and multiple serial interfaces, providing a single-chip solution for embedded controller and communications applications.

Designed for controller and communications tasks, the device targets embedded systems that require integrated serial communications, DMA, timers and DRAM interfacing while operating at 5 V I/O and a commercial temperature range.

Key Features

• CPU Core  CPU32+ processor, 32-bit single core architecture running at 25 MHz, supporting background debug mode and byte-misaligned addressing as part of the MC68360 series feature set.
• Memory and Bus  Up to 32-bit data bus with dynamic bus sizing for 8- and 16-bit devices and DRAM controller support for external memory configurations.
• Communications Processor Module (CPM)  On-chip CPM for communications tasks with dedicated commands and buffer descriptor support to offload serial channel processing.
• Serial Interfaces  Multiple serial channels including four SCCs, two SMCs and one SPI (as provided in the MC68360 family), plus SCC support and additional SCC interface noted in the part specifications.
• Ethernet Capability  Optional Ethernet support (10 Mbps on one channel) available within the family, enabling basic LAN connectivity where required.
• Timers and DMA  Multiple general-purpose timers and two independent DMA controllers for efficient data movement and timing functions (features available in the series).
• System Integration  On-chip system integration features in the MC68360 family such as watchdog, clock synthesizer and breakpoint logic to assist in system-level integration and debug.
• Electrical and Mechanical  5 V I/O voltage, through-hole mounting in a 241-BEPGA / 241-PGA package (47.24 × 47.24 mm) for robust board-level attachment.
• Environmental  RoHS compliant with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Communications Modules  Use the integrated CPM and multiple serial channels to implement protocol handling, serial aggregation and offloaded communications processing.
• Industrial Controllers  Leverage timers, DMA and DRAM interfacing for machine control, data buffering and real-time control tasks in commercial-temperature industrial systems.
• Networking Equipment  Deploy in basic network interface or gateway functions where a single 10 Mbps Ethernet channel and multiple serial links are required.
• Custom Embedded Systems  Suitable for one-chip controller designs that benefit from on-chip system integration features, debug capability and a 32-bit core.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Communications Engine:  Built-in CPM and multiple serial controllers reduce external peripheral requirements for communications-centric designs.
• Balanced Processing and I/O:  32-bit CPU32+ core at 25 MHz with DMA and timers provides a practical balance of control performance and peripheral throughput for embedded tasks.
• Flexible Memory Interface:  Support for DRAM and dynamic bus sizing enables use with a range of external memory configurations to match system capacity and cost targets.
• Through-Hole 241-PGA Packaging:  Large PGA package (47.24 × 47.24 mm) and through-hole mounting offer mechanical robustness for connectorized or serviceable assemblies.
• Commercial Temperature and RoHS Compliance:  Commercial operating range (0 °C to 70 °C) with RoHS compliance supports environmentally conscious procurement for standard embedded deployments.
