• Single DDR SDRAM memory controller supporting both DDR1 and DDR2 SDRAM with programmable timing.
• Dedicated security engine optimized for IPSec, SSL/TLS, SRTP, 802.11i, iSCSI, and IKE processing algorithms.
• High-performance e300 PowerPC processor core compatible with Power Architecture 603e instruction set.

Applications

• Next generation DSLAMs
• Network interface cards for 3G base stations (Node Bs)
• Routers and media gateways
• High end IADs

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized NXP channels. Confirm revision level matches design requirements. Check datasheet for specific ordering suffix definitions. Ensure supply chain integrity for legacy components. Validate RoHS compliance status prior to integration.

Selection Notes

Select based on required protocol support and memory configuration. Compare against MPC8360E if dual DDR controllers are needed. Evaluate thermal dissipation requirements for 400 MHz operation. Consider package availability and lead times for production planning.

Part Context

Part of the PowerQUICC II Pro family designed for networking and telecommunications markets. Extends previous offerings with higher CPU performance and faster interfaces. Targets control plane and data plane functionality in cost-effective communications processors.

Replacement Considerations

MPC8360E offers similar features but includes dual DDR controllers and eight UCCs instead of six. Verify pin compatibility and software migration efforts when considering alternatives within the MPC83xx series.
