MC68VZ328AGR2

The MC68VZ328AGR2 is a FLX68000-based microprocessor in a 144-LQFP (20×20) surface-mount package, featuring a single 32-bit core running at 33 MHz. It combines a static FLX68000 CPU with an integrated System Integration Module (SIM) and on-chip peripherals to address compact, power-conscious embedded designs.

Built for portable and embedded applications, the device targets systems that benefit from integrated memory controllers and peripheral interfaces while minimizing board space, pin count and external glue logic.

Key Features

• Core Static FLX68000 core (single 32-bit core) providing a 32-bit internal address bus and static operation that allows the processor clock to be stopped to save power.
• Performance 33 MHz processor clock with documented throughput of 5.4 MIPS at 33 MHz.
• Memory Controllers & Interface On-chip SDRAM and DRAM controllers with a glueless interface supporting SRAM, DRAM, SDRAM, EPROM and FLASH memory types for simplified system design.
• Peripherals & Timers Integrated peripherals including UART, SPI, 16-bit timers and PWM functionality to support common embedded I/O and timing needs.
• Bus & I/O External M68000 bus interface with selectable bus sizing for 8-bit and 16-bit data ports; I/O voltage specified at 3 V.
• System Integration Module (SIM) SIM provides system configuration and programmable address mapping to reduce external array logic and parts count in the design.
• Package & Mounting Supplier device package: 144-LQFP (20×20), surface mount; supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging for automated assembly.

Typical Applications

• Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) Integrated memory support and on-chip peripherals make the MC68VZ328AGR2 suitable for compact handheld devices requiring reduced board area and fewer external components.
• Smart Phones and Portable Devices Static core operation and integrated system functions support low-power portable electronics with peripheral and memory interface needs.
• Navigation Systems On-chip timers, UART and SPI interfaces pair with SDRAM support to handle real-time data and display/control tasks in navigation applications.
• Exercise Monitors and Other Portable Consumer Electronics Low-voltage I/O, PWM and integrated peripherals help implement sensor interfacing, user interface control and timing functions in small form-factor products.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated System Integration Module: Reduces external glue logic and parts count by providing system configuration and programmable address mapping on-chip.
• Glueless memory interfaces: Built-in controllers for SDRAM and DRAM and support for SRAM/FLASH/EPROM eliminate the need for complex external memory interface circuitry.
• Static FLX68000 core with power control: Static design permits stopping the processor clock for power savings in battery-powered applications.
• Compact surface-mount package: 144-LQFP (20×20) footprint and Tape & Reel packaging support space-constrained boards and automated assembly.
• On-chip peripherals: UART, SPI, 16-bit timers and PWM reduce the need for discrete peripheral chips and simplify board design.
• Low-voltage I/O: 3 V I/O level supports low-voltage system architectures.
