MPC860TCZQ66D4

The MPC860TCZQ66D4 is a single‑core, 32‑bit microprocessor from the MPC860 PowerQUICC family, built on Power Architecture™ technology. It combines a 66 MHz CPU core with an integrated communications processor module (CPM) and a flexible memory controller for embedded communications and networking applications.

Designed for embedded and industrial systems, the MPC860TCZQ66D4 delivers integrated peripheral and interface functionality—Ethernet ports, HDLC/SDLC support, DRAM controller and real‑time system features—while operating from 3.3 V I/O and a wide temperature range for industrial deployments.

Key Features

• Core and Architecture  Single 32‑bit MPC8xx core running at 66 MHz, implementing Power Architecture™ technology as described for the MPC860 family.
• Communications Processor (CPM)  Integrated CPM for communications and serial protocol offload, with HDLC/SDLC interfaces for protocol handling.
• Ethernet Connectivity  Multiple Ethernet interfaces: four 10 Mbps ports plus one 10/100 Mbps port for mixed‑speed network links.
• Memory Support  On‑chip memory controller supporting DRAM types and system memory configurations typical of the MPC860 family.
• Power and I/O  3.3 V I/O signaling for compatibility with common embedded peripherals.
• Package and Mounting  357‑pin PBGA package (25 × 25 mm) in a surface‑mount form factor for compact board integration.
• Industrial Qualification & Temperature  Industrial qualification with an operating temperature range of −40 °C to 95 °C for rugged environments.
• Additional Interfaces  HDLC/SDLC support and other serial interfaces provided by the CPM for protocol‑rich applications.
• RoHS Compliance  Device is RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Communication and Networking Equipment  Integration of CPU and CPM plus multiple Ethernet ports makes this device suitable for embedded routers, switches and protocol concentrators.
• Industrial Control Systems  Industrial temperature rating and 3.3 V I/O support deployment in control nodes, PLCs and factory automation controllers.
