MPC8308VMADDA

The MPC8308VMADDA is a cost-effective, low-power, highly integrated host microprocessor based on the PowerPC e300c3 core running at 266 MHz. Designed for embedded applications, it combines a 32-bit single core CPU with on-chip memory subsystems and a broad set of I/O to simplify system design.

With integrated DDR2 memory control, multi‑speed Ethernet, PCI Express support and a compact 473‑MAPBGA (19×19) package, the MPC8308VMADDA targets embedded and networking applications requiring consolidated functionality and controlled power consumption.

Key Features

• Core  PowerPC e300c3 32‑bit core, single core at 266 MHz with 16 KB instruction and 16 KB data cache for deterministic embedded processing.
• Memory  Integrated DDR2 SDRAM controller to support system memory needs for application and buffering tasks.
• Ethernet and Networking  10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet support (3) for multi‑port Gigabit connectivity in networking and gateway designs.
• High‑speed I/O  USB 2.0 controller (1) and PCI Express controller for peripheral and expansion interfacing.
• Peripheral Interfaces  DUART, I2C, SPI, GPIO, timers, JTAG and DMA controller for flexible peripheral and control integration.
• Storage and Media  Enhanced SD Host Controller (eSDHC) support and enhanced local bus controller (eLBC) for external memory and storage interfacing.
• System Integration  Integrated programmable interrupt controller (IPIC) and general purpose DMA to simplify real‑time and data movement tasks.
• Package & Mounting  473‑MAPBGA (19×19) package, surface mount, 473‑LFBGA case option.
• Operating Range & Compliance  Qualification: Consumer; operating temperature 0 °C to 105 °C; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Networking and Gateways  Multi‑port Gigabit Ethernet and PCI Express support make this device suitable for embedded gateway, switch control and edge networking functions.
• Embedded Host Controllers  The PowerPC e300c3 core, integrated caches and peripheral set fit compact single‑chip host controller roles in embedded systems.
• Storage and Media Interfaces  DDR2 memory controller, eSDHC and USB 2.0 support enable use in storage front‑end and I/O‑intensive embedded appliances.
• Industrial and Edge Appliances  Broad I/O (DUART, SPI, I2C, GPIO) and extended operating temperature up to 105 °C enable deployment in a range of embedded appliance environments.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated I/O: On‑chip Ethernet, USB 2.0, PCI Express and multiple serial interfaces reduce external components and streamline board layout.
• Compact MAPBGA package: 473‑MAPBGA (19×19) provides a small footprint for space‑constrained embedded designs.
• Balanced performance and power: 266 MHz PowerPC e300c3 core with on‑chip caches provides responsive control while supporting low‑power system designs.
• Memory and storage support: DDR2 controller plus eSDHC and eLBC support enable flexible memory architectures and local storage options.
• Documented platform: Supported by detailed hardware specification and datasheet material for system design, layout and timing guidance.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental compliance requirements for lead‑free assembly and modern manufacturing.
