MPC5200CVR400

The MPC5200CVR400 is a single-core PowerPC G2_LE microprocessor running at 400 MHz, designed for embedded communications and systems-integration applications. It combines a superscalar PowerPC core with an extensive set of on-chip peripherals and I/O subsystems to address networking, storage, and industrial control use cases.

Built for industrial environments, the device supports SDRAM and DDR memory, multiple high-speed interfaces, and a dedicated BestComm I/O subsystem that offloads peripheral maintenance from the CPU to improve overall system efficiency.

Key Features

• Core and Performance PowerPC G2_LE superscalar core, single 32-bit core at 400 MHz with an on-chip double-precision FPU, 16 KB instruction cache and 16 KB data cache, delivering documented throughput up to 760 MIPS at 400 MHz.
• Memory and External Bus Integrated SDRAM/DDR memory controller with up to 132 MHz operation and per-chip-select addressing; flexible external bus interface supporting ROM/Flash/SRAM with up to 8 programmable chip selects and 8/16/32-bit data access modes.
• High‑speed Peripheral Interfaces On-chip PCI controller (PCI 2.2) with 32-bit address/data support and 33/66 MHz operation, ATA (Version 4) controller for IDE connectivity, and USB 1.1 ports (2).
• Networking and Audio Integrated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet MAC (1) and AC97 audio interface for communications and multimedia subsystems.
• Serial and Field Interfaces Multiple serial interfaces including six Programmable Serial Controllers (PSC), I2C, SPI, CAN, and J1850 for broad field connectivity and sensor/actuator interfacing.
• DMA and I/O Offload BestComm DMA subsystem isolates routine peripheral maintenance from the CPU to streamline data movement and reduce CPU load.
• Package and Environmental 272‑PBGA (27 × 27 mm) surface-mount package, industrial qualification with operating temperature range –40 °C to +85 °C, and RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Networking Equipment Use as a communications processor for routers, switches, and gateways leveraging the integrated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet MAC, PCI connectivity, and robust DMA support.
• Industrial Control Embedded controllers and automation systems benefit from the industrial temperature range, CAN and serial interfaces, and deterministic I/O handling via BestComm.
• Storage and Mass-Data Interfaces ATA-4 support and a 32-bit external bus make this device suitable for embedded storage controllers and devices requiring local disk or flash interfacing.
• Multimedia and Voice Systems Integrated AC97 audio interface combined with USB and serial peripherals supports basic multimedia, telematics, and voice applications.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated communications peripherals: Combines Ethernet, PCI, USB, ATA and multiple serial buses on-chip to reduce external components and BOM.
• Dedicated I/O offload (BestComm): Offloads routine peripheral tasks from the CPU, improving real-time performance and freeing the core for application processing.
• Flexible memory and bus options: On-chip SDRAM/DDR controller plus a versatile external bus with multiple chip selects simplifies memory subsystem design and expansion.
• Industrial-ready packaging: 272‑PBGA surface-mount package with –40 °C to +85 °C qualification supports deployment in harsh environments.
• Standards-based peripherals: PCI 2.2, ATA-4, USB 1.1 and Ethernet support enables interoperability with common system components and legacy devices.
• RoHS compliant with vendor documentation: Environmentally compliant supply and detailed datasheet-level documentation for system design and integration.
