Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status as this product line may be discontinued or not recommended for new designs. Confirm exact suffix specifications against official NXP documentation to ensure compatibility with required operating temperatures and voltage levels. Check for replacement families such as T1013 or LS1012 if long-term supply assurance is required for ongoing production cycles.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high integration of networking and storage interfaces within a single SoC. The e300 core provides sufficient processing power for embedded communication tasks. Ensure design compatibility with the 689-pin BGA footprint and verify that the target application can utilize the integrated PCIe and SATA controllers to minimize external component requirements.

Part Context

This microprocessor belongs to the MPC837xE family of PowerQUICC II Pro processors. It shares architectural similarities with the MPC8378E and MPC8379E but differs in specific interface configurations and external bus options. The family targets cost-effective, high-performance solutions for communications and consumer electronics markets using 90 nm process technology.

Replacement Considerations

NXP recommends using Power Architecture T1013 or Arm Architecture LS1012 and LS1023 families for new designs.
