MPC8568EVTAQGG

The MPC8568EVTAQGG is a single-core PowerPC e500v2 microprocessor IC running at 1.0 GHz, offered by NXP Semiconductors as part of the MPC8568 series. It is designed for embedded applications that require integrated communications, memory controllers and security features in a surface-mount FCBGA package.

With on-chip support for high-speed Ethernet, DDR/DDR2/SDRAM memory controllers, and dedicated communications and security co-processors, this device targets embedded networking and communications-focused systems where integration and reliable operation across 0 °C to 105 °C matter.

Key Features

• Core – PowerPC e500v2 single 32-bit core at 1 GHz, delivering a deterministic embedded processing engine.
• Memory and Cache – On-chip memory resources include a 512-Kbyte L2 cache/SRAM and a 32-Kbyte L1 instruction resource as documented for the series; supports external DDR, DDR2 and SDRAM controllers.
• Communications and Co-processors – Integrated communications and security co-processors (QUICC Engine for communications and SEC for security) to offload packet and cryptographic processing.
• Ethernet – Two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet interfaces for gigabit networking connectivity.
• Interfaces and Expansion – Series documentation highlights support for PCI, PCI Express, Serial RapidIO, HSSI, I2C, SPI, DUART and other serial/peripheral interfaces for broad system connectivity.
• Security Features – On-chip cryptography and a hardware random number generator to support secure communications and data protection tasks.
• Package and Mounting – 1023-FCPBGA (33×33) surface-mount package, suitable for compact embedded board designs.
• Operating Range and Compliance – Industrial-friendly operating temperature from 0 °C to 105 °C and RoHS-compliant construction.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Networking: Use as the processing and communications hub in embedded network appliances where dual gigabit Ethernet and integrated protocol engines are needed.
• Industrial Communications: Deploy in industrial controllers and gateways that require DDR/DDR2 memory support, robust thermal range, and secure communications.
• Security Appliances: Apply the device’s on-chip cryptography and random number generator for secure data handling and encrypted link termination.
• Telecom and Routing Equipment: Leverage the QUICC Engine and multi-interface support for packet processing and control-plane functions in compact telecom systems.

Unique Advantages
