MC8641DVU1333JE

The MC8641DVU1333JE is a multicore embedded microprocessor based on the PowerPC e600 architecture, configured as a two-core, 32-bit device running at 1.333 GHz. It integrates processor cores and system logic intended for networking, storage, wireless infrastructure and general-purpose embedded applications.

Designed to support high-bandwidth interfaces and memory subsystems, this device targets embedded designs that require integrated peripheral controllers, multi-core processing and compact surface-mount packaging.

Key Features

• Processor cores: Dual PowerPC e600 cores, 32-bit, providing symmetric multicore processing capability as described for the MPC8641D family.
• Clock speed: 1.333 GHz core frequency for the dual-core MPC8641D variant.
• On-chip cache: Per-core L1 caches documented for the series (32 KB instruction and 32 KB data L1 caches per e600 core).
• Memory controllers: Integrated controllers for DDR and DDR2 SDRAM to support system memory requirements.
• Ethernet connectivity: Four integrated 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet controllers for multi-port wired networking.
• High-speed serial and PCI interfaces: On-chip support for high-speed serial interfaces (HSSI), PCI Express and Serial RapidIO as detailed in the MPC8641/MPC8641D hardware specifications.
• Peripheral and system interfaces: Integrated DUART, I2C, JTAG and local bus controller functionality for system control and debug.
• Package and mounting: 1023-FCCBGA (33×33 mm) supplier device package, surface-mount; supplied in tray format.
• Debug and system support: Multiprocessor programmable interrupt controller (MPIC) and enhanced management interfaces referenced in series documentation.

Typical Applications

• Network infrastructure: Multi-port Ethernet processing and packet handling for switches, routers and access equipment.
• Storage controllers: Embedded host processing and memory interface support for storage appliances and SAN/NAS controllers.
• Wireless infrastructure: Baseband/control-plane processing and system logic integration for wireless infrastructure equipment.
• General embedded systems: High-performance embedded compute for industrial and communications applications that require integrated peripherals and high-speed serial interfaces.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated multicore architecture: Dual PowerPC e600 cores combine processing density with on-chip system logic to simplify multicore embedded designs.
• Broad memory support: Native DDR and DDR2 SDRAM controllers reduce external logic and streamline memory subsystem design.
• Multitude of high-speed I/O: Multiple Gigabit Ethernet controllers plus PCI Express, Serial RapidIO and HSSI support enable flexible connectivity and system partitioning.
• Compact surface-mount package: 1023-FCCBGA (33×33) packaging provides high pin density for complex system integration while remaining suitable for surface-mount manufacturing.
• Built-in system and debug features: On-chip DUART, JTAG, I2C and MPIC resources facilitate system bring-up, debug and management.
