MPC8377ECVRAJFA

Overview

The MPC8377ECVRAJFA is a PowerQUICC II Pro System-on-Chip based on the e300c4s core, featuring 32 KB instruction and data caches. It integrates dual enhanced three-speed Ethernet controllers (eTSEC), a DDR1/DDR2 memory controller, USB 2.0, PCI, and two PCI Express links. The device includes an optional security engine for cryptographic acceleration, a Serial ATA controller, and a flexible local bus.

Feature Summary

• Integrated high-performance e300c4s processor core with floating-point unit
• Dual enhanced Ethernet controllers supporting multiple interface standards
• Optional hardware security engine for offloading encryption algorithms
• High-speed I/O connectivity via PCI Express and Serial ATA

Applications

• Printing systems main CPUs and I/O processors
• Networking switches and line cards
• Wireless LANs (WLANs)
• VPN routers and network access servers
• Industrial controllers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CVRAJFA against official NXP documentation to confirm package type, temperature range, and revision level. Ensure compatibility with existing board designs regarding power sequencing and voltage requirements before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high integration of networking and storage interfaces within a single chip. Consider the optional security engine if cryptographic offload is required. Evaluate the backward compatibility with previous PowerQUICC designs for software migration ease.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MPC837xE family of PowerQUICC II Pro processors. It shares architectural similarities with the MPC8378E and MPC8379E but differs in the number of integrated high-speed interfaces such as PCI Express and SATA ports.

Replacement Considerations

NXP recommends using the T1013 (Power Architecture) or LS1012/LS1023 (Arm Architecture) families for new designs as this product is not recommended for new designs.
