MPC8250AZUMHBC

The MPC8250AZUMHBC is a single-core PowerPC G2 microprocessor in the MPC8250 series, delivering a 32-bit core operating at 266 MHz. Designed for embedded applications, it integrates communications-oriented peripherals and memory interfaces to serve networking and general embedded control markets.

Key value comes from integrated communications support, on-chip memory/controller resources, and a high-density 480‑TBGA package suitable for surface-mount assembly in space-constrained systems.

Key Features

• Core & Architecture PowerPC G2 single-core, 32-bit processor running at 266 MHz with a dual-issue integer core and on-chip floating-point and MMU capabilities as documented for the MPC8250 family.
• Caches & Performance Separate instruction and data caches (16 KB each) and support for bus snooping for data cache coherency to improve system performance in multi-master environments.
• Communications Processor Module (CPM) Integrated CPM/RISC coprocessor functionality for communications tasks, plus multiple Ethernet ports supporting 10/100 Mbps (3), enabling packet and protocol offload.
• Memory & DMA On-chip DRAM/SDRAM controllers and serial DMAs including virtual IDMAs to simplify system memory interfacing and efficient data movement.
• System & Bus Interfaces 60x local bus (64-bit data, 32-bit address) and a 32-bit PCI interface capability (up to 66 MHz) for system expansion and peripheral connectivity.
• Serial & Control Interfaces Multiple serial interfaces including I2C and SPI, along with SCC/SMC serial controllers and baud-rate generators for broad peripheral support.
• Power Domains & Clocking Separate internal logic power (1.8 V) and I/O power (3.3 V), and independent PLLs for core and CPM with configurable core/bus multipliers to balance performance and power.
• Package & Thermal 480‑TBGA package (37.5 × 37.5 mm) with exposed pad, surface-mount mounting and an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 105 °C; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Networking & Communications Equipment Protocol handling, packet processing and interface bridging using integrated CPM and multiple 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports.
• Embedded Control Systems General-purpose embedded processing where a compact, surface-mount PowerPC G2 core with serial and memory interfaces is required.
• Consumer Network Appliances Consumer-class network devices and appliances that benefit from on-chip communications modules and a consumer qualification level.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated communications support: On-chip CPM, multiple Ethernet ports and serial controllers reduce external component count for networking designs.
• Balanced performance and integration: A 266 MHz PowerPC G2 core with separate caches, MMU and FPU (as part of the MPC8250 family) delivers deterministic embedded processing performance.
• Flexible system connectivity: 60x local bus and PCI interface options allow straightforward expansion and integration with existing system buses.
• Configurable clocking and power domains: Separate PLLs for core and CPM and distinct I/O and core voltages enable power/performance tuning.
• Surface-mount, high-density package: 480‑TBGA (37.5 × 37.5 mm) package with exposed pad supports compact board designs and thermal management options.
• Standards-ready compliance: RoHS-compliant construction and consumer qualification simplify regulatory and supply-chain considerations.
