MPC8309VMAGDCA

The MPC8309VMAGDCA is a POWERQUICC II Pro integrated communications microprocessor built around the PowerPC e300c3 core. It delivers a single 32‑bit core design with integrated communications accelerators and a rich set of peripheral interfaces for embedded networking and control applications.

Designed as a cost‑effective, highly integrated solution, the MPC8309 targets applications such as residential gateways, modem/routers, industrial control and test & measurement, offering a balance of CPU capability, I/O integration and board‑level footprint savings.

Key Features

• Core & Architecture PowerPC e300c3 core (MPC603e‑based); single 32‑bit core providing the processor foundation for control and packet handling.
• Communications Offloads Integrated communications DSP functionality and a QUICC Engine to accelerate networking tasks and protocol handling.
• Memory Subsystem DDR2 memory controller support for system memory interfacing and data buffering.
• Ethernet & USB Three 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interfaces and one USB 2.0 interface to support multiple network ports and peripheral connectivity.
• Peripheral Set Integrated peripheral blocks described in the device documentation include DUART, eSDHC, FlexCAN, I2C, timers, GPIO, IPIC, SPI, JTAG, PCI, HDLC and TDM/SI.
• Package & Mounting 489‑ball PBGA (19 × 19 mm) package; surface mount device suitable for compact board layouts.
• Qualification & Compliance Consumer qualification and RoHS compliance for regulatory and environmental alignment.
• Operating Range Specified operating temperature from 0°C to 105°C for a range of commercial and industrial ambient conditions.
• Graphics & Display No dedicated graphics acceleration (device is focused on communications and control functions).

Typical Applications

• Residential Gateways: Use as the communications processor in home gateway and router designs to handle multiple Ethernet ports and USB peripheral connectivity.
• Modem and Router Platforms: Integrate DDR2 memory support and QUICC Engine offloads to manage packet processing and protocol tasks in modem/router products.
• Industrial Control: Leverage the e300c3 core, on‑chip peripherals and 0°C to 105°C operating range for embedded control and monitoring systems.
• Test & Measurement Equipment: Employ the processor’s peripheral set and communications interfaces for data acquisition, protocol handling and device control functions.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated communications processor: Combines an e300c3 core with a QUICC Engine and communications DSP functionality to consolidate processing and protocol offloads on a single device.
• Multiple network interfaces: Three 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports plus USB 2.0 simplify multi‑port networking designs and peripheral connectivity without adding separate controllers.
• Broad peripheral coverage: On‑chip DUART, eSDHC, FlexCAN, I2C, SPI, PCI and other interfaces reduce bill‑of‑materials and simplify board design for embedded systems.
• Compact PBGA package: 489‑ball PBGA (19 × 19 mm) provides a small footprint option for space‑constrained boards while supporting surface‑mount assembly.
• Documented platform support: Comprehensive hardware specifications and subsystem descriptions are provided in the device documentation to assist system design and integration.
• Regulatory alignment: RoHS compliance and consumer qualification help meet environmental and market entry requirements.
