MPC8536EAVTANGA

Overview

The MPC8536EAVTANGA is a PowerQUICC III integrated processor featuring a high-performance 32-bit e500 core operating up to 1.5 GHz with 36-bit physical addressing and double-precision floating-point support. It includes 32-Kbyte L1 instruction/data caches and a 512-Kbyte L2 cache. The device integrates a DDR2/DDR3 SDRAM controller supporting up to 16 Gbytes with full ECC, two three-speed Ethernet controllers (eTSECs) with IEEE 1588 support, three PCI Express interfaces, two SATA controllers, and three USB dual-role controllers. It also features an enhanced local bus, eSDHC, and an integrated security engine.
