MPC8536AVJAQGA

Overview

The MPC8536AVJAQGA is a PowerQUICC III integrated processor featuring a single 32-bit e500 core operating up to 1.25 GHz with 36-bit physical addressing and double-precision floating-point support. It includes 32-Kbyte L1 instruction and data caches, plus a 512-Kbyte L2 cache. The device integrates a DDR2/DDR3 memory controller supporting up to 16 Gbytes with full ECC, two enhanced three-speed Ethernet controllers (eTSECs), two PCI Express interfaces, one SATA controller, two USB dual-role controllers, an enhanced local bus, and an eSDHC interface.

Feature Summary

• Integrated security engine optimized for IPsec, SSL/TLS, and RAID parity checking
• Dual enhanced three-speed Ethernet controllers with IEEE 1588 support
• Multiplexed high-speed serial interfaces including PCI Express and SATA
• Advanced power management modes including Doze, Nap, Sleep, and Deep Sleep

Applications

• IP network processing applications
• Advanced media processing systems
• Storage area network (SAN) controllers
• Industrial automation gateways

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix AVJAQGA against official NXP documentation to confirm package type, temperature range, and revision level. Confirm current lifecycle status as this component may be discontinued or subject to last-time buy restrictions. Ensure compatibility with existing board designs regarding voltage levels and pin assignments before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this processor for applications requiring high-performance embedded networking combined with robust security features. Consider the integrated DDR2/DDR3 controller and extensive I/O options when designing systems needing direct connectivity to storage and high-speed networks without external bridge chips.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MPC85xx PowerQUICC III family of communications processors. It shares architectural similarities with the MPC8535E but offers specific interface configurations tailored for complex application processing. The FC-PBGA-783 package provides a compact form factor suitable for dense embedded designs.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official NXP documentation for confirmed substitute part numbers within the MPC85xx family. Verify functional equivalence regarding pinout, voltage requirements, and software compatibility before considering alternatives.
