MPC8280CZUQLDA

The MPC8280CZUQLDA is a PowerPC G2_LE microprocessor in a 1‑core, 32‑bit configuration running at 333 MHz, designed for embedded applications that require integrated communications and robust industrial operation. It combines a dual‑issue integer core architecture with on‑chip peripherals and memory controllers to streamline system design.

Targeted at embedded and communications‑oriented designs, the MPC8280 family delivers integrated Ethernet, USB, serial communications controllers and system interfaces in a compact 480‑TBGA package, offering a balance of processing performance and peripheral integration for industrial applications.

Key Features

• Core Architecture  Dual‑issue integer PowerPC G2_LE core, 1 core, 32‑bit, operating at 333 MHz; includes separate 16 KB instruction and 16 KB data caches (four‑way set associative, physically addressed).
• Memory and Controllers  On‑chip DRAM and SDRAM controllers to support system memory interfacing and simplify board‑level design.
• Communications Co‑processors  Integrated communications and RISC CPM co‑processor functionality to offload protocol handling and communications tasks.
• Ethernet and USB  Three 10/100 Mbps Ethernet controllers and one USB 2.0 port provide native connectivity for networking and peripheral interfaces.
• Serial and System Interfaces  Multiple serial communications controllers (SCCs) and I2C support for common peripheral and control interfaces; PCI bridge support for system expansion.
• Power and I/O  3.3 V I/O signaling for compatibility with standard embedded peripherals and interfaces.
• Package and Thermal  480‑TBGA supplier device package (37.5 × 37.5 mm) with a 480‑LBGA exposed pad option; industrial operating temperature range from −40 °C to 105 °C.
• Qualification and Compliance  Industrial qualification and RoHS‑compliant manufacturing.

Typical Applications

• Networking Equipment  Multi‑port 10/100 Mbps Ethernet and integrated communications controllers make the MPC8280 suitable for routers, switches, and network appliances.
• Embedded Communications Systems  On‑chip co‑processors and SCC resources support protocol handling and real‑time communications tasks in embedded gateways and appliances.
• Industrial Control  Industrial temperature rating and robust I/O support enable deployment in factory automation, process control, and industrial monitoring systems.
• System Expansion Platforms  PCI bridge and multiple peripheral interfaces allow the MPC8280 to serve as a central processing and I/O hub in modular embedded platforms.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated communications peripherals: Three 10/100 Ethernet controllers, USB 2.0, SCCs and I2C reduce external component count and simplify board design for connected applications.
• Proven PowerPC G2_LE core: Dual‑issue integer core with separate instruction and data caches enables predictable embedded performance for control and networking workloads.
• Industrial temperature capability: −40 °C to 105 °C operating range supports deployment in demanding environmental conditions.
• Compact, thermally aware packaging: 480‑TBGA (37.5 × 37.5 mm) with exposed pad options supports high‑density designs while providing thermal conduction paths for system cooling.
• Simplified memory and expansion: Integrated DRAM/SDRAM controllers and PCI bridge support reduce external logic and accelerate time‑to‑market for complex systems.
• RoHS compliant and industrial qualified: Meets common environmental and qualification expectations for embedded applications.
