The MPC8536E PowerQUICC III integrated communications processor 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, built on Power Architecture® technology, with enhanced peripherals and interconnect technology to balance processor performance with I/O system throughput. Designed to achieve clock speeds up to 1.5 GHz, the MPC8536E processor includes advanced power and energy management features that enable developers to design next-generation embedded Internet media processing applications with energy efficiency levels under the environmental and governmental energy regulatory requirements.
Energy Management Advantage Balancing the performance requirements for powerful new networking- and Internet-centric applications, with the increasing concerns over energy consumption, is driving manufacturers to develop intelligent strategies for optimizing performance within specific energy budgets. The MPC8536E processor implements sophisticated power-saving modes for managing energy consumption in both dynamic and static power modes. These include the traditional nap, doze and sleep plus the new JOG (dynamic frequency scaling) and packet-lossless deep sleep. Designers will be able to leverage these modes to efficiently match work accomplished with the correct level of energy consumed.
