MPC8347ZQAGD

The MPC8347ZQAGD is a single‑core PowerPC e300 microprocessor designed for embedded applications that require integrated networking and peripheral interfaces. Operating at 400 MHz, the device combines a 32‑bit core with on‑chip system logic to support networking, storage and general‑purpose embedded host functions.

Built with dual high‑speed interfaces and hardware security capabilities, this NXP Semiconductors MPC8347 series device targets designs where integration, connectivity and deterministic operation are priorities.

Key Features

• Processor Core  PowerPC e300 32‑bit single core running at 400 MHz, suitable for embedded host processing tasks.
• Memory Controller  Integrated DDR memory controller for system and application memory requirements.
• Networking Interfaces  Two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports provide multi‑speed wired connectivity options for networking and gateway designs.
• USB Connectivity  Two USB 2.0 controllers with integrated PHYs enable common peripheral and host connectivity.
• Security Subsystem  Dedicated SEC co‑processor with cryptography acceleration and a hardware random number generator to support secure communications and cryptographic tasks.
• Peripheral and System Interfaces  Includes DUART and a range of system interfaces documented for the MPC8347 family (timers, GPIO, SPI, I2C, JTAG, PCI and local bus per family documentation).
• Package and Mounting  620‑ball HBGA exposed pad package (29 × 29 mm), surface‑mount, designed for compact system implementations.
• Operating Range & Compliance  Rated for 0 °C to 105 °C operation and RoHS compliant; specified for consumer qualification level.

Typical Applications

• Network Appliances  Routers, gateways and switches that benefit from dual Gigabit Ethernet ports and integrated USB connectivity for management and peripheral access.
• Storage and NAS Controllers  Embedded storage systems that require DDR memory support and secure data handling via on‑chip cryptography.
• General Embedded Hosts  Control and monitoring platforms that need a compact, surface‑mount PowerPC solution with a broad set of peripherals.
• Industrial and Commercial Equipment  Systems operating within 0 °C to 105 °C that require integrated communications, security and peripheral interfaces.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Connectivity: Dual Gigabit Ethernet and dual USB 2.0 + PHY reduce external component count and simplify board layout for connected devices.
• Built‑in Security Engine: On‑chip SEC co‑processor plus a hardware RNG enable hardware‑assisted cryptography without relying solely on software libraries.
• System Integration: DDR controller and a comprehensive set of peripheral interfaces (DUART, SPI, I2C, PCI, GPIO, etc. as documented for the family) streamline system design.
• Compact Packaging: 620‑HBGA (29×29 mm) with exposed pad supports high‑density board designs while providing thermal interface options.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets RoHS requirements for environmentally conscious product development.
• Documented Family Features: Family documentation details additional system blocks (timers, JTAG, local bus, Ethernet management and others) useful for system architects.
