MPC8323CVRAFDC

Overview

The MPC8323CVRAFDC is a PowerQUICC II Pro integrated communications processor featuring an e300c2 core with dual integer units and 16 KB L1 instruction/data caches. It includes a QUICC Engine block with five unified communication controllers supporting Ethernet, ATM, HDLC, TDM, and USB 2.0 protocols. The device integrates a 32-bit DDR1/DDR2 memory controller, a PCI 2.3 controller, and a SEC 2.2 security engine for hardware-accelerated cryptography.

Feature Summary

• Supports protocol termination for IP/Ethernet and ATM networks via the QUICC Engine block
• Provides hardware acceleration for cryptographic algorithms including DES, AES, and SHA-1
• Integrates a flexible local bus and PCI interface for peripheral connectivity
• Includes a single RISC controller within the QUICC Engine for communications management

Applications

• ADSL SOHO and residential gateways
• Modem/routers
• Industrial control systems
• Test and measurement applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CVRAFDC' against official NXP documentation to confirm package type, temperature range, and lead-free status. Confirm that the component belongs to the MPC8323E family as detailed in the hardware specifications. Ensure compatibility with required DDR1 or DDR2 memory configurations before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this processor for applications requiring converged IP and ATM packet processing. It is suitable for designs needing high software compatibility with previous PowerQUICC generations. Consider the absence of a floating-point unit when evaluating computational requirements for signal processing tasks.

Part Context

This component is part of the MPC8323E PowerQUICC II Pro family, which also includes the MPC8323, MPC8321E, and MPC8321. The family is designed to offer higher CPU performance and faster interfaces compared to earlier PowerQUICC processors while addressing power consumption and board real estate constraints.
