MPC8536BVJAQGA

Overview

The MPC8536BVJAQGA is a PowerQUICC III integrated processor featuring a single 32-bit e500 core operating at 600 MHz. It implements the Power Architecture technology with 36-bit physical addressing and double-precision floating-point capabilities. The device includes 32-Kbyte L1 instruction and data caches, alongside a 512-Kbyte L2 cache. Memory management is handled by a DDR2/DDR3 SDRAM controller supporting up to 16 Gbytes with full ECC. Connectivity features two enhanced three-speed Ethernet controllers (eTSECs), three PCI Express interfaces, two SATA controllers, and three USB dual-role controllers compliant with USB 2.0.

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
• Enhanced local bus controller with memory management capabilities

Applications

• Network infrastructure equipment
• Industrial control systems
• Storage area networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official NXP documentation to confirm voltage, temperature range, and package variations. Confirm component status as obsolete or active through authorized distributors. Ensure compatibility with existing board designs regarding pin assignments and power sequencing requirements before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this processor for applications requiring robust hardware security acceleration and multiple high-speed serial interfaces within a single chip. Evaluate system memory requirements against the supported DDR2/DDR3 specifications. Consider the thermal characteristics of the 783-pin FC-PBGA package during PCB layout planning.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MPC85xx family of PowerQUICC III processors designed for communications and networking applications. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the MPC8536E but differs in specific speed grades and interface configurations defined by the ordering suffix.
