Freescale Semiconductor MPC8569 Block Diagram

The MPC8569E PowerQUICC III communications processor is a high-performance, low-power device based on 45-nm silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology. The device targets broadband access equipment such as 3G/WiMAX/LTE base stations, RNCs, gateways and ATM/TDM/IP equipment. It supports wireless protocols while delivering up to 1.3 Gigahertz performance within a sub-10 watt power envelope. The MPC8569E processor incorporates enhanced QUICC Engine technology that delivers double the performance of previous generations. The MPC8569E offloads data path tasks to the QUICC Engine block, which handles termination, interworking, and switching between communication protocols and interface standards such as Gigabit Ethernet, ATM, HDLC, POS, PPP and PWE3. The device includes a high-performance CPU with 512-kbyte Level 2 (L2) cache, one 64-bit or two 32-bit DDR2/DDR3 memory controllers, SGMII, serial RapidIO interconnects, USB 2.0, and PCI Express technology.
