MPC8536ECVTAULA

Overview

The MPC8536ECVTAULA is a PowerQUICC III integrated processor featuring a single 32-bit e500 core operating up to 1.333 GHz. It includes 32-Kbyte L1 instruction and data caches, plus a 512-Kbyte L2 cache. The device supports DDR2/DDR3 SDRAM with full ECC and integrates two enhanced three-speed Ethernet controllers (eTSECs), three USB 2.0 dual-role controllers, and two SATA controllers. Additional interfaces include PCI Express, PCI 2.2, eSPI, eSDHC, I2C, and DUART. It utilizes a 783-pin FC-PBGA package.

Feature Summary

• Integrated security engine optimized for IPsec, IKE, SSL/TLS, iSCSI, SRTP, IEEE Std 802.16e, and 3GPP algorithms.
• Dual enhanced three-speed Ethernet controllers supporting TCP/IP acceleration, QoS, and wake-up events in deep sleep mode.
• High-performance 32-bit e500 core implementing Power Architecture technology with double-precision embedded floating point APU.
• DDR2/DDR3 memory controller with full ECC support detecting and correcting single-bit errors.

Applications

• Network infrastructure equipment requiring high-speed packet processing
• Industrial control systems utilizing secure communication protocols
• Storage area networks leveraging integrated SATA controllers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CVTAULA' against official NXP documentation to confirm extended temperature range and encryption features. Confirm package dimensions match the 783-pin FC-PBGA specification. Check for moisture sensitivity levels and power sequencing requirements during integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-core PowerQUICC III solution with integrated security and multiple high-speed serial interfaces is required. Ensure system design accommodates the 783-pin BGA footprint and supports the necessary DDR2/DDR3 memory configurations with ECC.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MPC8536E family within the PowerQUICC III series. It shares architectural similarities with other MPC85xx processors but is distinguished by its specific interface configuration and security engine implementation suitable for communications applications.

Replacement Considerations

Consult NXP documentation for direct pin-compatible or functionally equivalent successors within the MPC85xx family. Verify software compatibility and peripheral mapping before substituting with newer revisions.
