MPC860DTVR50D4

The MPC860DTVR50D4 is a member of the MPC860 PowerQUICC family: a single-core, 32-bit microprocessor IC implementing Power Architecture technology for embedded communications and control applications. It integrates on-chip communications acceleration and peripheral controllers to support networking, protocol handling, and system control functions.

Key elements include a 50 MHz MPC8xx core, integrated communications co-processor (CPM), DRAM memory controller, multiple Ethernet interfaces, and a 357‑pin PBGA surface-mount package—designed for compact embedded systems that require integrated communications capability and straightforward hardware integration.

Key Features

• Core & Architecture Single 32-bit MPC8xx core running at 50 MHz with Power Architecture technology; the family documentation describes on-chip MMUs and instruction/data caches for system-level memory management and performance.
• Communications Co-Processor (CPM) Integrated CPM designed for communications and protocol offload; supports serial protocols and system communications acceleration.
• Ethernet Interfaces Multiple integrated Ethernet ports: two 10 Mbps interfaces and one 10/100 Mbps interface for diversified network connectivity.
• Memory & Controllers On-chip DRAM controller to interface with external DRAM; family documentation also references a PCMCIA socket controller supporting up to two sockets.
• Additional Interfaces HDLC/SDLC support and communications-oriented peripheral interfaces for protocol framing and serial link management.
• Power & I/O 3.3 V I/O signaling for common embedded system compatibility.
• Package & Mounting 357‑PBGA (25 × 25 mm) surface-mount package for space-efficient board designs.
• Operating Range & Qualification Consumer-grade qualification with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 95 °C; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Networking Equipment Embedded routers, switches, and network controllers that require multiple Ethernet interfaces and protocol handling.
• Communications Gateways Protocol conversion and link-management appliances leveraging the CPM and HDLC/SDLC interfaces for serial and framed links.
• Embedded Controllers Compact controller systems using the on-chip DRAM controller and integrated peripherals for control and I/O tasks.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Communications Subsystem: The on-chip CPM and HDLC/SDLC interfaces reduce external peripheral requirements for protocol handling and serial communications.
• Multi-Port Ethernet: Two 10 Mbps ports plus a 10/100 Mbps port provide flexible LAN/WAN connectivity options without added PHY complexity.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 357‑PBGA (25×25) packaging enables high-density board layouts while supporting the device’s I/O requirements.
• Standard 3.3 V I/O: Compatibility with common 3.3 V system designs simplifies integration with modern embedded components.
• Family-Level Ecosystem: As part of the MPC860 PowerQUICC family, the device benefits from documented architecture features such as MMUs, caches, and expanded peripheral support detailed in the family datasheet.
