MPC823ZQ81B2T

The MPC823ZQ81B2T is a PowerPC-based embedded microprocessor designed for consumer-focused embedded applications. It integrates a single 32-bit PowerPC core running at 81 MHz together with a dedicated communications processor module (CPM) and a broad set of on-chip peripherals to support portable, image-capture and personal-communication products.

This device delivers a compact, highly integrated solution with on-chip DRAM controller, display interface controllers, USB and Ethernet connectivity, and serial interfaces, enabling efficient system designs that require mixed processing and peripheral functions at 3.3 V I/O levels.

Key Features

• PowerPC Core  Single 32-bit PowerPC core operating at 81 MHz for embedded control and application processing.
• Communications Processor Module (CPM)  On-chip RISC communications processor for offloading imaging and communication tasks from the main core, enabling parallel processing of peripheral workloads.
• Memory and Cache  On-chip support for DRAM controllers and caching architecture drawn from the series datasheet to improve system memory performance.
• Wide Peripheral Set  Integrated interfaces including USB 1.x (1 channel), 10 Mbps Ethernet (1), I2C, serial peripheral interface and multiple serial channels for flexible connectivity.
• Display and Video Support  On-chip LCD and video display controllers suitable for embedded user interfaces and image display tasks.
• Power and I/O  3.3 V I/O boundary for compatibility with standard embedded IO levels; surface-mount package simplifies board integration.
• Package and Mounting  256-PBGA (23 × 23 mm) package in a surface-mount form factor for compact board designs.
• Operating Range and Qualification  Consumer-qualified device with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 95 °C; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Mobile and Portable Devices  Ideal for low-power portable electronics where integrated processing and peripheral functions reduce system complexity.
