MPC8360ZUAJDGA

The MPC8360ZUAJDGA is a PowerPC-based microprocessor featuring a single PowerPC e300 core running at 533 MHz. It is a highly integrated communications processor designed for embedded networking and telecommunications applications.

Built for networking, wireless infrastructure and telecom equipment, the device combines the e300 core with a QUICC Engine and a broad set of on-chip controllers and interfaces to address control-plane and data-plane use cases requiring integration and protocol interworking.

Key Features

• Core PowerPC e300 core operating at 533 MHz with a 32-bit execution environment.
• Cache 32 Kbytes of instruction cache and 32 Kbytes of data cache (instruction and data cache sizes referenced in product documentation).
• QUICC Engine On-chip QUICC Engine module providing termination, interworking, and switching between protocols for communications workloads.
• Networking Interfaces Integrated UCC Ethernet controller (three-speed Ethernet) and MII management support, enabling common Ethernet connectivity options described in the product documentation.
• Memory Support Support for DDR and DDR2 SDRAM interfaces as described in the device documentation.
• Peripheral Subsystems On-chip controllers and interfaces documented for PCI, USB, SPI, I2C, JTAG, DUART, HDLC/BISYNC/transparent and synchronous UART, timers, GPIO, TDM/SI and local bus connectivity.
• Package and Mounting 740-TBGA package (37.5 × 37.5 mm), surface-mount, supplied in tray format.
• Qualification Consumer qualification level as specified in the product data.

Typical Applications

• DSLAMs and Broadband Equipment Use the integrated communications features and memory interfaces for control and protocol handling in next‑generation DSLAMs.
• 3G Base Station Network Cards (Node Bs) Suitable for network interface cards that require protocol interworking and Ethernet connectivity as part of wireless infrastructure.
• Routers and Media Gateways Combine the e300 core, QUICC Engine and multi-protocol controllers to manage packet processing and control-plane tasks in routers and gateways.
• High-end IADs (Integrated Access Devices) Leverage the device's peripheral set and memory support for integrated voice/data access solutions.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Communications Engine: The QUICC Engine provides built-in termination, interworking, and switching capabilities to simplify protocol handling on-board.
• Balanced Processor and I/O: A 533 MHz PowerPC e300 core paired with a broad range of peripheral controllers enables both control-plane and data-plane roles.
• Comprehensive Peripheral Set: On-chip support for Ethernet, PCI, USB, SPI, I2C, serial interfaces, timers and more reduces external component count and BOM complexity.
• Memory Interface Flexibility: Documented support for DDR and DDR2 SDRAM interfaces allows designers to select memory solutions that match system performance needs.
• Ready-for-Integration Package: The 740-TBGA (37.5×37.5 mm) surface-mount package simplifies PCB integration for compact communications hardware.
