MPC823VR81B2T

The MPC823VR81B2T is a PowerPC-based microprocessor optimized for embedded applications requiring integrated peripheral support and efficient task offload. It combines a 32-bit single PowerPC core with a Communication Processor Module (CPM) to handle imaging and communications tasks.

Targeted use cases include low-power portable devices, image capture and personal communications products where integration of USB, display controllers and serial interfaces reduces system complexity and component count.

Key Features

• Core — Single 32-bit PowerPC core; the device is specified at 81 MHz and includes core-focused design elements from the MPC8xx family.
• Communication Processor Module (CPM) — On-chip CPM implements a RISC-style processor for communications and imaging tasks, enabling parallel processing and offloading of peripheral functions from the main core.
• Caches & Memory Management — Series documentation describes on-chip instruction and data caches and memory management support, including Translation Lookaside Buffers (TLBs) and multiple page-size support for virtual memory control.
• Interfaces — Integrated peripheral interfaces include USB 1.x, I2C, an Ethernet 10 Mbps channel, multiple serial channels and a serial peripheral interface for broad connectivity options.
• Display & Imaging — On-chip LCD and video display controllers plus CPM-based image processing support for compact imaging and display subsystems.
• Memory Controllers — DRAM controller support for external memory subsystems.
• Power & I/O — 3.3 V I/O boundary and design focused on low-power operation for portable applications.
• Package & Mounting — 256-PBGA (23 × 23 mm) package, surface-mount mounting type; package case listed as 256-BBGA.
• Operating Range — Consumer qualification with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 95 °C and RoHS compliant status.

Typical Applications

• Portable Imaging Devices — Integrated CPM and video/LCD controllers support image capture and local display tasks while offloading the main core.
• Personal Communication Equipment — USB, serial channels and Ethernet connectivity enable communication-centric products that require protocol handling and interface flexibility.
• Handheld and Low-Power Systems — 3.3 V I/O and an architecture designed for efficient peripheral handling make the device suitable for power-conscious portable designs.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Communication Offload: The CPM handles imaging and serial protocol tasks, reducing CPU load and simplifying firmware partitioning.
• Broad Peripheral Integration: Built-in USB, I2C, Ethernet and multiple serial channels reduce external component count and board complexity.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 256-PBGA (23×23) package supports dense PCB layouts for space-constrained designs.
• Memory and Display Support: On-chip DRAM controller plus LCD and video controllers streamline memory and display subsystem design.
• RoHS Compliant: Conforms to RoHS requirements for environmentally sensitive designs.
