MPC8548ECVJAUJD

Microprocessors Overview

The MPC8548ECVJAUJD is a PowerQUICC III integrated processor featuring a single 32-bit e500 core operating at 1.5 GHz. It utilizes a 783-pin ceramic ball grid array (CBGA) package with dimensions of 29x29 mm. The device incorporates a 512-Kbyte L2 cache/SRAM, four enhanced three-speed Ethernet controllers (eTSECs), and dual PCI/PCI-X controllers. Connectivity includes Serial RapidIO and PCI Express interfaces via SerDes transceivers. It supports DDR and DDR2 SDRAM memory with full ECC capabilities.

Microprocessors Feature Summary

• Integrated security engine supporting multiple cryptographic algorithms including AES, DES, and RSA.
• Ocean switch fabric providing full crossbar packet switching and priority-based reordering.
• Four-channel DMA controller supporting scatter-gather transfers and hardware-enforced coherency.
• Programmable interrupt controller compliant with OpenPIC architecture supporting high-resolution timers.

Microprocessors Applications

• Enterprise networking equipment
• Telecom transmission and switching systems
• 3G wireless infrastructure

Microprocessors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CVJAUJD against the official NXP ordering guide to confirm package material and temperature range. Confirm component status as this part may be discontinued or subject to last-time buy notifications. Ensure compatibility with existing board designs regarding the CBGA footprint and power sequencing requirements for VDD and GVDD rails.

Microprocessors Selection Notes

Select this processor for applications requiring high-performance control plane processing combined with extensive I/O connectivity. The integration of dedicated security engines and multiple high-speed serial interfaces reduces system component count. Consider thermal management requirements due to power dissipation characteristics at maximum clock speeds.

Microprocessors Part Context

This component belongs to the PowerQUICC III family based on the scalable e500 system-on-chip platform. It shares architectural similarities with the MPC8547E, MPC8545E, and MPC8543E, differing primarily in feature sets and pinout configurations. The family targets communications processing performance using 90nm SOI technology.
