MPC852TZT100A

Overview

The MPC852TZT100A is a microprocessor from the PowerQUICC I family, manufactured by NXP Semiconductors. It features a single-core PowerPC processor with a 32-bit data bus width and operates at a maximum clock frequency of 100 MHz. The device is housed in a PBGA-256 package and supports surface mount installation. It functions within a voltage range of 1.8 V for core power and 3.3 V for I/O interfaces. Internal memory includes 4 kB instruction cache, 4 kB data cache, and 8 kB of data RAM. The component supports Ethernet, I2C, SPI, and UART interfaces, along with two timers and a watchdog timer. Operating temperatures range from 0°C to +95°C.

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels due to potential availability constraints. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated in official documentation. Ensure handling procedures account for moisture sensitivity levels specified in the datasheet. Validate pin compatibility and thermal requirements against target PCB design specifications before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a PowerQUICC I architecture is required for network-centric embedded tasks. Consider the 100 MHz performance ceiling and PBGA-256 footprint during system design. Evaluate interface needs against available Ethernet, I2C, SPI, and UART resources. Assess thermal management capabilities for operation up to 95°C ambient temperature.

Part Context

This part belongs to the legacy PowerQUICC I (MPC8xx) series, designed for high-performance embedded networking and control. It succeeds earlier MPC8xx variants with enhanced integration of communication peripherals. The series targets cost-sensitive applications requiring reliable packet processing and protocol handling without complex external controllers.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference lists for compatible upgrades. Verify electrical and pinout compatibility with existing designs before substitution.
