• On-chip Caches — 32 KB L1 instruction cache and 32 KB L1 data cache with parity protection; caches can be locked entirely or on a per-line basis for deterministic behavior.
• Signal and Floating-Point Processing — Integrated Signal Processing Engine (SPE) APU plus double-precision and single-precision floating-point APUs for vector and scalar computation workloads.
• Memory Interfaces — Built-in controllers for DDR, DDR2, and SDRAM to support a range of system memory configurations.
• Ethernet — Two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet interfaces suitable for gigabit networking and embedded communications.
• Security — On-chip cryptography support and a hardware random number generator for secure communications and trusted functions.
• I/O and Peripheral Interfaces — DUART and a broad set of peripherals listed in the device specifications (including JTAG, I2C, GPIO, PCI, PCI Express and high-speed serial interfaces in the MPC8544 series).
• Package and Mounting — 783-FCPBGA (29×29) / 783-BBGA FCBGA package; surface-mount mounting type.
• Industrial Temperature Range — Rated for operation from –40 °C to 105 °C for deployment in industrial environments.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS requirements for environmental compliance.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Networking — Dual gigabit Ethernet and industrial temperature qualification make the device suitable for embedded network controllers and industrial communication nodes.
• Embedded Control and Automation — Single-core PowerPC e500 performance with deterministic cache locking supports real-time control, PLCs, and automation controllers.
