MPC8260AZUPJDB

The MPC8260AZUPJDB is a single‑core PowerPC G2 microprocessor IC operating at 300 MHz, designed for embedded applications that require integrated communications and system‑level functionality. It combines a 32‑bit core, on‑chip communications processing, memory controllers and multiple serial interfaces to support embedded communications, industrial control, and networked appliance designs.

Key value propositions include a high‑performance PowerPC G2 core with separate caches, integrated communications co‑processors (CPM), flexible clocking and power domains, and a compact 480‑TBGA surface‑mount package for board‑level integration.

Key Features

• Core PowerPC G2 single‑core 32‑bit processor running at 300 MHz with an integrated floating‑point unit and separate 16 KB instruction and 16 KB data caches.
• Communications Co‑processors On‑chip communications and RISC CPM co‑processors to offload protocol and data‑plane tasks for embedded networking applications.
• Memory Support Integrated DRAM and SDRAM controllers for system memory interfacing and a 64‑bit data / 32‑bit address 60x bus architecture (as described in the device family datasheet).
• Ethernet and Serial Interfaces 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connectivity and additional serial interfaces including I2C to support peripheral communication and networked I/O.
• Power and Clock Flexibility Separate power supplies for internal logic and I/O and independent PLLs for the G2 core and CPM, enabling power/performance optimization and flexible clock multipliers.
• Package and Mounting 480‑TBGA package (37.5 × 37.5 mm) with 480‑lead L‑BGA exposed pad, surface‑mount mounting type suitable for compact board designs.
• Operating Range and Compliance Qualified for consumer applications with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 105 °C and RoHS compliance.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Networking Used in networked appliances and communication endpoints where integrated Ethernet and CPM capabilities simplify protocol handling and data throughput.
• Industrial Control Suitable for embedded controllers that require deterministic processing at 300 MHz along with DRAM/SDRAM support and robust I/O interfacing.
• Communications Equipment Fits applications that benefit from on‑chip communications co‑processors and multiple serial interfaces for protocol offload and peripheral connectivity.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Communications Processing: On‑chip CPM and communications co‑processors reduce external logic and simplify protocol implementation.
• Balanced Performance and Efficiency: 300 MHz PowerPC G2 core with separate instruction and data caches delivers predictable processing for embedded workloads.
• Flexible System Design: Separate PLLs for core and CPM plus multiple clock multiplier options enable tuning of performance versus power consumption.
• Memory and I/O Integration: Built‑in DRAM/SDRAM controllers and serial interfaces including I2C streamline system memory and peripheral connectivity.
• Robust Packaging: 480‑TBGA surface‑mount package with exposed pad supports high‑density board layouts and thermal considerations.
• Regulatory and Environmental Compliance: RoHS‑compliant construction aligns with modern environmental requirements.
