MPC5200CBV400

The MPC5200CBV400 is a 32-bit embedded microprocessor based on the PowerPC G2_LE core, operating at 400 MHz. It combines a high-performance G2_LE core with a rich set of peripherals and I/O subsystems focused on communications and systems integration.

Designed for embedded and industrial applications, the device delivers system-level integration with memory controllers, networking and storage interfaces, and a BestComm I/O subsystem to offload routine peripheral tasks from the CPU core.

Key Features

• Core  The PowerPC G2_LE core runs at 400 MHz, delivering 760 MIPS at rated frequency and includes 16 kB instruction and 16 kB data caches plus a double-precision FPU and MMU.
• Processor Configuration  Single 32-bit core optimized for embedded control and communications tasks.
• Memory  Integrated SDRAM/DDR memory controller supporting SDRAM and DDR SDRAM up to 132 MHz, with 32-bit data bus and up to 256 MByte addressing per chip-select.
• External Bus and PCI  Flexible external bus interface with up to eight programmable chip selects and a PCI controller (PCI v2.2 compatible) supporting 32-bit transfers at 33/66 MHz.
• Storage and Audio  Built-in ATA (Version 4) controller for IDE connectivity and AC97 audio interface for multimedia/voice applications.
• Connectivity  Integrated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (1), dual USB 1.1 ports, six programmable serial controllers (PSC), I²C, SPI, CAN, and J1850 support for broad peripheral interoperability.
• DMA and I/O Offload  BestComm DMA subsystem provides intelligent virtual DMA to isolate routine peripheral maintenance from the core.
• Package and Mounting  Supplied in a 272-PBGA package (27×27 mm) and intended for surface-mount PCB assembly.
• Industrial Qualification & Temperature Range  Industrial-qualified device rated for operation from −40 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Networking and Communications  Use in routers, switches, and gateways where integrated Ethernet, PCI and serial peripherals enable packet processing and system integration.
• Industrial Control and Automation  Suitable for embedded controllers and automation equipment that require industrial temperature operation and multiple fieldbus/serial interfaces.
• Embedded Storage and NAS  ATA controller plus PCI and DMA capabilities make the device suitable for storage controller and embedded NAS designs.
• Multimedia and Telephony Interfaces  AC97 audio support combined with serial and USB connectivity for voice, audio, and multimedia edge devices.

Unique Advantages

• High single-core performance: The PowerPC G2_LE core at 400 MHz delivers up to 760 MIPS for compute-intensive embedded tasks.
• System-level integration: On-chip memory controllers, PCI, ATA, Ethernet, USB and multiple serial interfaces reduce external components and simplify system design.
• I/O offload with BestComm: The BestComm DMA subsystem isolates peripheral maintenance from the CPU, improving deterministic performance for real-time tasks.
• Flexible memory and bus options: Support for SDRAM and DDR, multiple chip selects and a flexible external bus enable a wide range of memory and peripheral topologies.
• Industrial-grade reliability: Industrial qualification and a −40 °C to 85 °C operating range support deployment in demanding environments.
• RoHS compliant: Conforms to RoHS requirements for environmental compliance in modern designs.
