MPC8306CVMAFDCA

Overview

The MPC8306CVMAFDCA is a PowerQUICC II Pro integrated communications processor featuring an e300c3 core with 16 KB instruction and data caches. It operates at a maximum clock frequency of 333 MHz with a 32-bit data bus width. The device utilizes a 369-ball BGA package and supports DDR2 SDRAM via a 16-bit controller running up to 266 MHz. Core supply voltage is 1.0 V, while I/O voltages are 1.8 V and 3.3 V. It includes five UCCs for Ethernet, HDLC, TDM, and IEEE 1588 protocols.

Feature Summary

• Integrates QUICC Engine technology with five unified communication controllers supporting Ethernet, HDLC, TDM, and time synchronization.
• Features an enhanced local bus controller supporting parallel NOR and NAND Flash booting with multiple chip selects.
• Includes a dual-role USB 2.0 controller compatible with host, device, and OTG modes.
• Provides an enhanced secure digital host controller (eSDHC) compatible with SD/MMC standards.

Applications

• Residential gateways
• Modem/routers
• Industrial control systems
• Test and measurement applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'AFDCA' against official NXP documentation to confirm package type, temperature range, and lead-free status. Ensure compatibility with existing board designs regarding the 369-ball BGA footprint and required power sequencing for the 1.0 V core and 3.3 V I/O supplies.

Selection Notes

Select this component for networking applications requiring high integration and protocol support. Consider the e300c3 core performance and QUICC Engine capabilities for handling complex communication tasks. Evaluate power consumption requirements against the specified operating conditions and thermal characteristics.
