The MC8641DVU1000GB is a 1.0 GHz dual-core PowerPC e600 microprocessor in the MC8641 family, provided in a 1023‑FCCBGA (33×33) surface‑mount package. The MPC8641D variant integrates two e600 cores and system logic targeted at networking, storage, wireless infrastructure and general‑purpose embedded applications.

Designed for embedded systems that require multi‑core processing, integrated memory controllers and broad I/O, this device delivers an architecture focused on connectivity and system integration for demanding embedded use cases.

Key Features

• Dual PowerPC e600 cores — 1.0 GHz Two 32‑bit e600 cores operating at 1 GHz provide concurrent processing capability for embedded workloads.
• L1 Caches Per‑core 32 KB instruction and 32 KB data L1 caches to support low‑latency instruction and data access.
• Memory controllers Integrated DDR and DDR2 SDRAM controller support for system memory, including dedicated DDR SDRAM controller functionality.
• Ethernet connectivity Four 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports with enhanced three‑speed Ethernet (eTSEC) functionality for high‑throughput network interfaces.
• High‑speed I/O and interfaces On‑chip support and documented hardware sections for PCI Express, Serial RapidIO, High‑Speed Serial Interfaces (HSSI), Local Bus, DUART, I2C and JTAG for broad peripheral and board‑level connectivity.
• Package and mounting Supplier device package: 1023‑FCCBGA (33×33); surface mount, supplied in bulk packaging.
• No graphics acceleration Device does not include graphics acceleration, focusing silicon resources on processing and connectivity.

Typical Applications

• Networking equipment — Four 1 GbE ports and integrated system logic enable routing, switching and network‑edge processing designs.
• Storage systems — DDR/DDR2 memory controller support and high‑speed I/O options suit storage controllers and packet processing tasks.
• Wireless infrastructure — Integrated peripherals and high‑speed serial interfaces support baseband and infrastructure control functions.
• General‑purpose embedded systems — Dual e600 cores and broad peripheral support provide a foundation for a range of embedded control and processing applications.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated family architecture: MPC8641/MPC8641D hardware integrates processing cores with system logic for networking and storage, reducing external component count.
• Dual‑core throughput: Two PowerPC e600 cores enable parallel tasking and improved system responsiveness for multi‑threaded embedded workloads.
• Memory flexibility: Built‑in DDR and DDR2 SDRAM controllers simplify memory subsystem design across multiple DRAM technologies.
• Broad connectivity: Multiple Ethernet ports plus support for PCIe, Serial RapidIO and HSSI provide a wide range of board‑level interfaces for connectivity and expansion.
• Compact, high‑pin‑count package: 1023‑FCCBGA (33×33) offers high I/O density in a surface‑mount form factor for compact, feature‑dense designs.
• Focused silicon resources: Absence of graphics acceleration concentrates device capability on processing, I/O and memory subsystems important to embedded networking and storage.
