• L1 cache architecture 32 Kbyte L1 instruction cache and 32 Kbyte L1 data cache with parity protection; caches can be locked entirely or on a per-line basis for deterministic performance.
• Signal-processing and floating-point engines Integrated SPE (Signal Processing Engine) APU plus embedded vector/scalar single-precision and double-precision floating-point APUs for DSP and numeric workloads.
• Memory controllers On-chip controllers for DDR2 and DDR3 SDRAM enabling high-bandwidth local memory interfaces.
• High-speed networking Four 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports (Enhanced Three-Speed Ethernet, eTSEC) for multi-port networking and connectivity.
• Peripheral interfaces Integrated DUART and support for common embedded interfaces including PCI Express and Serial RapidIO (documented in device hardware specifications).
• Security features On-chip cryptography support and a hardware random number generator for secure processing functions.
• System features 36-bit real addressing and a Memory Management Unit (MMU) for large-memory and virtual-memory use cases.
• Package and mounting 1023-ball FCBGA package (33 × 33 mm), surface-mount, suitable for compact board designs.
• Operating range and compliance Consumer qualification with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 105 °C and RoHS compliance.

Typical Applications

• Networking & Communications Multi-port gigabit Ethernet and high-speed serial interfaces make the MPC8572LVTAVNE suitable for routers, switches and embedded network appliances.
• Signal Processing & Multimedia SPE and floating-point APUs support vector and floating-point workloads for audio, video or sensor signal processing.
• High-performance Embedded Control Dual cores, deterministic cache locking and MMU support enable complex real-time control and monitoring applications.
• I/O and Storage Controllers Integrated PCIe and Serial RapidIO support high-bandwidth peripheral connectivity for storage, I/O bridging and expansion cards.

Unique Advantages

• Dual-core compute density: Two PowerPC e500 cores at 1.5 GHz deliver parallel processing capability in a single package for throughput-sensitive embedded designs.
• Integrated memory and I/O: On-chip DDR2/DDR3 controllers and multiple high-speed interfaces reduce external component count and simplify board design.
• DSP and floating-point acceleration: SPE plus single- and double-precision FP APUs provide hardware acceleration for numeric and signal-processing tasks.
• Deterministic cache control: Lockable L1 caches with parity protection help achieve predictable performance for real-time and safety-conscious applications.
• Multi-port networking: Four gigabit Ethernet ports enable compact multi-interface network endpoints without additional switching silicon.
• Security primitives on-chip: Cryptography support and a hardware random number generator provide building blocks for secure communications and data protection.
