MPC8321ECVRADDCA

Overview

The MPC8321ECVRADDCA is a PowerQUICC II Pro microprocessor featuring an e300c2 core operating at 266 MHz. It integrates a QUICC Engine with five Unified Communication Controllers, a Security Engine (SEC 2.2), and a 32-bit DDR1/DDR2 memory controller. The device supports PCI 2.2, USB 2.0, Ethernet, TDM, and serial interfaces within a 516-pin PBGA package.

Feature Summary

• Integrated QUICC Engine with five Universal Communication Controllers for flexible protocol termination
• Hardware security acceleration via SEC 2.2 for DES, AES, and SHA algorithms
• Dual integer units in the e300c2 core for parallel instruction execution
• Support for both DDR1 and DDR2 SDRAM memory standards

Applications

• ADSL SOHO and residential gateways
• Industrial control systems
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized NXP channels due to end-of-life status. Confirm RoHS compliance documentation matches the specific manufacturing lot. Validate that the 516-PBGA footprint aligns with existing PCB designs before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this processor for applications requiring integrated networking protocols and hardware security without floating-point capabilities. Ensure system design accommodates the 1V core voltage and 3.3V I/O requirements. Verify software compatibility with legacy PowerQUICC codebases if migrating from previous generations.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MPC8323E family of communications processors. It shares architectural similarities with the MPC8323E but lacks UTOPIA interface support. The part utilizes the e300c2 core variant optimized for integer processing tasks common in network packet handling.
