High degree of software compatibility
with previous generation PowerQUICC
processor-based designs for backward
compatibility and easier software migration
QUICC Engine Technology Features
Single 32-bit RISC controller for flexible
support of communications peripherals
Serial DMA controller for receive and
transmit on all serial channels
Five UCCs supporting the following
interfaces (not all simultaneously)
- 10/100 Mbps Ethernet/IEEE Std. 802.3
through MII and RMII interfaces
- IEEE 1588 version-2 support (only on
MPC8306)
- HDLC/transparent (bit rate up to QUICC
Engine operating frequency divided by
eight)
- HDLC bus (bit rate up to 10 Mbps)
- PROFIBUS protocol support
- Asynchronous HDLC (bit rate up to
2 Mbps)
- Two TDM interfaces supporting up to 128
channels each running at up to 64 Kbps
The UCCs are similar to the PowerQUICC II
peripherals in that the serial communications
controller (SCC) supports the UART and HDLC
bus and fast serial communications controller
(FCC) supports fast Ethernet and HDLC.
Enablement
The MPC8306-KIT is a cost-optimized
reference development kit for the MPC8306
processor. The kit consists of a carrier card
and processor-specific system on module
(SOM) card. The SOM interfaces with
peripherals through the carrier card. This same
carrier card can be used for the MPC8309
processor SOMs.The MPC830x-KIT board
support package (BSP) can be customized
per project and combined with off-the-shelf
software for product development. The BSP
components provide the tools, device drivers
and additional features needed for embedded
Linux OS projects.
