The MPC823 microprocessor is a versatile, one-chip integrated microprocessor and peripheral combination that can be used in a variety of electronic products. It particularly excels in low-power, portable, image capture and personal communication products. It has a universal serial bus (USB) interface and video display controller, as well as the existing LCD controller of the MPC821 device.

The MPC823 microprocessor integrates a high-performance embedded MPC8xx core with a communication processor module that uses a specialized RISC processor for imaging and communication. The communication processor module can perform embedded signal processing functions for image compression and decompression. It also supports seven serial channels--two serial communication controllers, two serial management controllers, one I2C port, one USB channel, and one serial peripheral interface.

This two-processor architecture consumes power more efficiently than traditional architectures because the communication processor module frees the core from peripheral tasks like imaging and communication.

The MPC8240 Integrated Host Processor fits applications where cost, space, power consumption and performance are critical requirements. This device provides a high level of integration, reducing chip count from five discrete chips to one, thereby significantly reducing system component cost. High integration results in a simplified board design, less power consumption and faster time-to-market solution. This cost-effective, general-purpose integrated processor targets systems using PCI interfaces in networking infrastructure, telecommunications, and other embedded markets. It can be used for control processing in applications such as routers, switches, network storage applications and image display systems.

Processor Core 

The MPC8240 Integrated Host Processor takes advantage of a small, yet powerful 32-bit, superscalar MPC603e processor core. The processor core provides floating-point support, memory management, 16-Kbyte instruction and data caches and power management features with five independent execution units. This full-featured high-performance processor core is software-compatible with microprocessors based on Power Architecture.

The MPC8308 processor is optimized for low-cost and low-power providing a highly-integrated PowerQUICC II Pro processor that addresses requirements of networking applications such as smart grid home energy gateways, data concentrators, wireless LAN access points, wireless femto base stations, consumer printing and industrial applications such as industrial control and factory automation. MPC8308 processor extends the PowerQUICC II Pro family adding higher CPU performance and high-speed peripherals with low power consumption at a very aggressive cost.

For networking applications, the gigabit Ethernet MACs support connectivity to the wired network while the PCI Express and SDIO interfaces offer connectivity to wireless LAN or 3G and 4G modem devices. The MPC8308 features integrated IEEE 1588 version 2 time synchronization offering extremely precise clock synchronization for applications such as time-sensitive telecommunications services, industrial network switches, powerline networks and test/measurement devices.The MPC8536E PowerQUICC® III is designed to deliver gigahertz-class complex application processing performance with exceptional feature integration and high-speed connectivity for IP network and advanced media processing applications. It combines a robust e500 processor core, with enhanced peripherals and interconnect technology, to balance processor performance with I/O system throughput. The MPC8536E processor includes advanced energy management features that will help enable next-generation embedded Internet media processing applications with energy efficiency levels under the environmental and governmental energy regulatory requirements.

Energy Management Advantage
The MPC8536E processor implements sophisticated power-saving modes for managing energy consumption in both dynamic and static power modes. Designers will be able to leverage these modes to efficiently match work accomplished with the correct level of energy consumed.

Power QUICC系列微處理器一般有三個功能模塊組成，嵌入式 PowerPC核(EMPCC),系統接口單元(SIU)以及通信處理器(CPM)模塊，這三個模塊內部總線都是 32位。
嵌入式 PowerPC核由嵌入式 PowerPC核心、指令和數據緩存(Cache)及其各自的存儲器管理單元(MMU)組成，從功能上 Power PC核可分為兩個功能模塊:整數模塊和加載/存儲模塊。整數和加載/存儲操作均由具有 32位內部數據通道，支持 32位整數操作及算術操作的硬件直接執行。PowerPC核中的整數模塊使用 32 X 32 bit定點通用寄存器，每時鐘周期可以執行一條整數處理指令。整數模塊中的單元僅在數據隊列中的有效數據被傳輸時才被占用，這樣使得 PowerPC核一直處于低功耗工作模式。

Power QUICC

Power QUICCII 完全可以看作是 Power QUICC的**代，在靈活性、擴展能力、集成度等方面提供了更高的性能。Power QUICC II同樣由嵌入式的PowerPC核和通信處理模塊 CPM兩部分集成而來。這種雙處理器器的結構由于 CPM承接了嵌入式 Power PC核的外圍接口任務，所以較傳統結構更加省電。CPM交替支持三個快速串行通信控制器(FCC)，二個多通道控制器(MCC)，四個串行通信控制器(SCC)，二個串行管理控制器(SMC)，一個串行外圍接口電路(SPI)和一個 12C接口。嵌入式的 Power PC核和通信處理模塊(CPM)的融和，以及Power QUICCII的其他功能、性能縮短了技術人員在網絡和通信產品方面的開發周期。

PowerQUICC III
同 Power QUICCII相比，Power QUICCIII集成度更高、功能更強大、具有更好的性能提升機制。Power QUICCIII中的 CPM較 Power QUICCII產品 200MHz的 CPM的運行速度提升了 66%，達到 333MHz，同時保持了與早期產品的向后兼容性。這使得客戶能夠昀大范圍的延續其現有的軟件投入、簡化未來的系統升級、又極大的節省開發周期。Power QUICCIII通過微代碼具有的可擴展性和增加客戶定制功能的特性，能夠使客戶針對不同應用領域開發出各具特色的產品。這種從 Power QUICC II開始就有的微代碼復用功能，已經成為簡化和降低升級成本的主要設計考慮。
