MPC885VR133

The MPC885VR133 is a single-core, 32-bit microprocessor IC in the MPC885 family, running at 133 MHz on a Power Architecture™ core. Designed for embedded and communications-focused applications, it combines a CPU, system integration unit and communications processor module for integrated control and networking tasks.

With on-chip communications peripherals, a DRAM controller, hardware security support and both Ethernet and USB interfaces, the MPC885VR133 targets controller, networking and security appliance designs that require a compact, integrated solution from NXP Semiconductors.

Key Features

• Core  Single-issue 32-bit MPC8xx core at 133 MHz built on Power Architecture™ technology, including instruction and data caches for responsive embedded performance.
• Memory & Caches  Integrated memory management with on-chip caches (instruction and data) and DRAM controller support to simplify system memory design.
• Communications Processing  On-chip Communications Processor Module (CPM) supporting communications-oriented tasks and offloading to dedicated hardware.
• Security & Cryptography  Dedicated security co-processor (SEC) and cryptography features to support encrypted communications and secure data handling.
• Ethernet  Multiple Ethernet controllers: three 10 Mbps ports and two 10/100 Mbps ports, enabling flexible wired networking topologies.
• USB  One USB 2.0 interface for host or device connectivity.
• Additional Interfaces  HDLC/SDLC support for serial link framing and legacy communications protocols.
• Power & I/O  3.3 V I/O voltage for common embedded system compatibility.
• Package & Mounting  357-ball PBGA package (25×25 mm), surface-mountable for compact board designs.
• Operating Range & Qualification  Consumer-grade qualification with operating temperature range of 0 °C to 95 °C.

Typical Applications

• Communications & Networking Equipment  Integration of multiple Ethernet ports and CPM functionality makes this device suitable for network controllers, routers or access devices.
• Embedded Controllers  Single-chip CPU plus DRAM controller and peripheral integration supports general embedded control and management tasks.
• Security Appliances  On-chip cryptography and the SEC co-processor enable encrypted communications and secure processing for appliances and gateways.
• USB-enabled Systems  Built-in USB 2.0 interface facilitates connectivity for peripherals, configuration or host/device roles in embedded products.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Communications Subsystem: Multiple Ethernet controllers, USB and HDLC/SDLC interfaces reduce external component count and simplify board design.
• Built-in Security Acceleration: On-chip SEC and cryptography features offload security tasks from the CPU, improving throughput for encrypted traffic.
• Power Architecture Core: 133 MHz MPC8xx core with instruction and data caches delivers deterministic embedded performance for control and networking workloads.
• Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 357-ball PBGA (25×25 mm) enables high-density PCB layouts while supporting robust thermal and mechanical mounting.
• Design-Ready Peripherals: DRAM controller and CPM functionality simplify system integration and accelerate time-to-market for embedded products.
