MPC850DEVR66BU

The MPC850DEVR66BU is a single-chip microprocessor built around the embedded MPC8xx 32-bit core running at 66 MHz. It combines the processor core with integrated system peripherals and a Communications Processor Module (CPM), making it suitable for controller, communications and networking applications in cost-sensitive and remote-access products.

Designed with integrated memory and peripheral interfaces, the device delivers a compact, surface-mount solution with on-chip support for Ethernet, USB and serial protocols, enabling simplified system designs and reduced bill of materials.

Key Features

• Core Embedded MPC8xx 32-bit processor core, single-issue architecture operating at 66 MHz.
• Communications Processor Module (CPM) Integrated CPM with an independent RISC communications processor to off-load peripheral and protocol handling from the main core.
• Serial and Peripheral Interfaces On-chip support for Ethernet (10 Mbps), USB 1.x, HDLC/SDLC and additional serial channels including SCC/SMC/I2C/SPI as provided by the CPM.
• Memory and Controllers Versatile memory controller with DRAM support and an 8-Kbyte dual-port RAM referenced in the family hardware specifications.
• Power and I/O 3.3 V I/O signaling for standard embedded system interfaces.
• Package and Mounting 256-PBGA (23 × 23 mm) package, surface-mount for compact board designs.
• Operating Range Rated for operation from 0 °C to 95 °C and qualified for consumer applications.
• Compliance RoHS-compliant component suitable for environmentally conscious designs.

Typical Applications

• Communications Equipment Protocol handling and peripheral off-load via the CPM make the device suited for cost-sensitive networking and remote-access controllers.
• Embedded Networking Controllers On-chip Ethernet and serial interfaces support gateway, modem and small network appliance functions.
• Telecommunications Integrated communications peripherals and HDLC/SDLC support simplify telecom protocol implementations.
• General Embedded Control Single-core 32-bit processing with DRAM controller support fits a range of controller and appliance applications where a compact, integrated MPU is required.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated solution: Processor core, CPM, memory controller and multiple serial interfaces are combined on a single die to reduce component count and simplify system design.
• CPM off-load capability: Dedicated communications processor handles serial channels and protocol tasks, freeing the main MPC8xx core for application processing.
• Standard I/O and power: 3.3 V I/O and common peripheral support ease integration into existing embedded platforms.
• Compact surface-mount package: 256-PBGA (23×23) package enables space-efficient PCB layout for compact devices.
• Documented hardware specifications: Family-level hardware documentation and electrical/thermal data provide detailed design guidance for system integration.
• Regulatory and environmental readiness: RoHS compliance supports environmentally conscious manufacturing requirements.
