High-performance, 32-bit core enhanced by
resources for embedded cores defined by the Power
ISA, and built on Power Architecture® technology:
— 32-Kbyte L1 instruction cache and 32-Kbyte L1
data cache with parity protection. Caches can be
locked entirely or on a per-line basis, with
separate locking for instructions and data.
— Signal-processing engine (SPE) APU (auxiliary
processing unit). Provides an extensive
instruction set for vector (64-bit) integer and
fractional operations. These instructions use both
the upper and lower words of the 64-bit GPRs as
they are defined by the SPE APU.
Freescale reserves the right to change the detail specifications as may be required
to permit improvements in the design of its products.

operation. These requirements are as follows for power up:

Note that all supplies must be at their stable values within 50 ms.
Items on the same line have no ordering requirement with respect to one another. Items on separate lines
must be ordered sequentially such that voltage rails on a previous step must reach 90% of their value before
the voltage rails on the current step reach 10% of theirs.
In order to guarantee MCKE low during power-up, the above sequencing for GVDD is required. If there is
no concern about any of the DDR signals being in an indeterminate state during power up, then the
sequencing for GV is not required.

From a system standpoint, if any of the I/O power supplies ramp prior to the V core supply, the I/Os
DD
associated with that I/O supply may drive a logic one or zero during power-up, and extra current may be
drawn by the device.

1. These values specify the power consumption at nominal voltage and apply to all valid processor bus frequencies and
configurations. The values do not include power dissipation for I/O supplies.
2. Typical power is an average value measured at the nominal recommended core voltage (VDD) and 65°C junction temperature
(see Table 2) while running the Dhrystone 2.1 benchmark.
3. Thermal power is the average power measured at nominal core voltage (VDD) and maximum operating junction temperature
(see Table 2) while running the Dhrystone 2.1 benchmark.
4. Maximum power is the maximum power measured at nominal core voltage (VDD) and maximum operating junction
temperature (see Table 2) while running a smoke test which includes an entirely L1-cache-resident, contrived sequence of

Notes:
1. Caution: The CCB clock to SYSCLK ratio and e500 core to CCB clock ratio settings must be chosen such that the resulting
SYSCLK frequency, e500 (core) frequency, and CCB clock frequency do not exceed their respective maximum or minimum
operating frequencies. Refer to Section 19.2, “CCB/SYSCLK PLL Ratio,” and Section 19.3, “e500 Core PLL Ratio,” for ratio
settings.
2. Rise and fall times for SYSCLK are measured at 0.6 and 2.7 V.
3. This represents the total input jitter—short- and long-term.
4. The SYSCLK driver’s closed loop jitter bandwidth should be <500 kHz at –20 dB. The bandwidth must be set low to allow
cascade-connected PLL-based devices to track SYSCLK drivers with the specified jitter.
4.1.1
SYSCLK and Spread Spectrum Sources
Spread spectrum clock sources are an increasingly popular way to control electromagnetic interference
emissions (EMI) by spreading the emitted noise to a wider spectrum and reducing the peak noise
magnitude in order to meet industry and government requirements. These clock sources intentionally add
long-term jitter in order to diffuse the EMI spectral content. The jitter specification given in Table 5
considers short-term (cycle-to-cycle) jitter only and the clock generator’s cycle-to-cycle output jitter
should meet the MPC8544E input cycle-to-cycle jitter requirement. Frequency modulation and spread are
separate concerns, and the MPC8544E is compatible with spread spectrum sources if the recommendations
listed in Table 6 are observed.

1. SYSCLK frequencies resulting from frequency spreading, and the resulting core and VCO frequencies, must meet the
minimum and maximum specifications given in Table 5.
It is imperative to note that the processor’s minimum and maximum SYSCLK, core, and VCO frequencies
must not be exceeded regardless of the type of clock source. Therefore, systems in which the processor is
operated at its maximum rated e500 core frequency should avoid violating the stated limits by using
down-spreading only.

Real-Time Clock Timing
The RTC input is sampled by the platform clock (CCB clock). The output of the sampling latch is then
used as an input to the counters of the PIC and the TimeBase unit of the e500. There is no jitter
specification. The minimum pulse width of the RTC signal should be greater than 2 × the period of the
CCB clock. That is, minimum clock high time is 2 × t
, and minimum clock low time is 2 × t
. There

is no minimum RTC frequency; RTC may be grounded if not needed.

L/TVDD = 3.3 V.
2. EC_GTX_CLK125 is used to generate the GTX clock for the eTSEC transmitter with 2% degradation. EC_GTX_CLK125 duty
cycle can be loosened from 47%/53% as long as the PHY device can tolerate the duty cycle generated by the eTSEC
GTX_CLK. See Section 8.7.4, “RGMII and RTBI AC Timing Specifications,” for duty cycle for 10Base-T and 100Base-T
reference clock.
4.4
Platform to FIFO Restrictions
Please note the following FIFO maximum speed restrictions based on platform speed.
For FIFO GMII mode:
FIFO TX/RX clock frequency ≤ platform clock frequency ÷ 4.2
For example, if the platform frequency is 533 MHz, the FIFO Tx/Rx clock frequency should be no more
than 127 MHz.
For FIFO encoded mode:
FIFO TX/RX clock frequency ≤ platform clock frequency ÷ 3.2
For example, if the platform frequency is 533 MHz, the FIFO Tx/Rx clock frequency should be no more
than 167 MHz.

Notes:
1. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)(reference)(state) for
inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. Output hold time can be read as DDR timing
(DD) from the rising or falling edge of the reference clock (KH or KL) until the output went invalid (AX or DX). For example,
tDDKHAS symbolizes DDR timing (DD) for the time tMCK memory clock reference (K) goes from the high (H) state until
outputs (A) are setup (S) or output valid time. Also, tDDKLDX symbolizes DDR timing (DD) for the time tMCK memory clock
reference (K) goes low (L) until data outputs (D) are invalid (X) or data output hold time.
2. All MCK/MCK referenced measurements are made from the crossing of the two signals 0.1 V.
3. ADDR/CMD includes all DDR SDRAM output signals except MCK/MCK, MCS, and MDQ/MECC/MDM/MDQS.
4. Note that tDDKHMH follows the symbol conventions described in note 1. For example, tDDKHMH describes the DDR timing
(DD) from the rising edge of the MCK[n] clock (KH) until the MDQS signal is valid (MH). tDDKHMH can be modified through
control of the DQSS override bits in the TIMING_CFG_2 register. This will typically be set to the same delay as the clock
adjust in the CLK_CNTL register. The timing parameters listed in the table assume that these two parameters have been
set to the same adjustment value. See the MPC8544E PowerQUICC III Integrated Communications Processor Reference
Manual, for a description and understanding of the timing modifications enabled by use of these bits.
5. Determined by maximum possible skew between a data strobe (MDQS) and any corresponding bit of data (MDQ), ECC
(MECC), or data mask (MDM). The data strobe should be centered inside of the data eye at the pins of the microprocessor.
6. All outputs are referenced to the rising edge of MCK[n] at the pins of the microprocessor. Note that tDDKHMP follows the
symbol conventions described in note 1.
7. Maximum DDR1 frequency is 400 MHz.
NOTE
For the ADDR/CMD setup and hold specifications in Table 18, it is
assumed that the clock control register is set to adjust the memory clocks by
½ applied cycle.

eTSEC DC Electrical Characteristics
All GMII, MII, TBI, RGMII, RTBI, RMII, and FIFO drivers and receivers comply with the DC parametric
attributes specified in Table 21 and Table 22. The potential applied to the input of a GMII, MII, TBI, RTBI,
RMII, and FIFO receiver may exceed the potential of the receiver’s power supply (that is, a GMII driver
powered from a 3.6-V supply driving V into a GMII receiver powered from a 2.5-V supply). Tolerance
OH
for dissimilar GMII driver and receiver supply potentials is implicit in these specifications. The RGMII
and RTBI signals are based on a 2.5-V CMOS interface voltage as defined by JEDEC EIA/JESD8-5.

SGMII Interface Electrical Characteristics
Each SGMII port features a 4-wire AC-coupled serial link from the dedicated SerDes 2 interface of
MPC8544E as shown in Figure 7, where C is the external (on board) AC-coupled capacitor. Each output
TX
pin of the SerDes transmitter differential pair features 50-Ω output impedance. Each input of the SerDes
receiver differential pair features 50-Ω on-die termination to SGND_SRDS2 (xcorevss). The reference
circuit of the SerDes transmitter and receiver is shown in Figure 7.
When an eTSEC port is configured to operate in SGMII mode, the parallel interface’s output signals of
this eTSEC port can be left floating. The input signals should be terminated based on the guidelines
described in Section 21.5, “Connection Recommendations,” as long as such termination does not violate
the desired POR configuration requirement on these pins, if applicable.
When operating in SGMII mode, the eTSEC EC_GTX_CLK125 clock is not required for this port.
Instead, SerDes reference clock is required on SD2_REF_CLK and SD2_REF_CLK pins.
8.3.1
AC Requirements for SGMII SD2_REF_CLK and SD2_REF_CLK
Table 23 lists the SGMII SerDes reference clock AC requirements. Please note that SD2_REF_CLK and
SD2_REF_CLK are not intended to be used with, and should not be clocked by, a spread spectrum clock
source.

3. The |VOD| value shown in the table assumes the following transmit equalization setting in the XMITEQCD (for SerDes 2 lane
2 and 3) bit field of MPC8544E SerDes 2 control register 1:
•The MSbit (bit 0) of the above bit field is set to zero (selecting the full VDD-DIFF-p-p amplitude—power up default);
•The LSbits (bit [1:3]) of the above bit field is set based on the equalization setting shown in this table.
4. VOS is also referred to as output common mode voltage.
5. The |VOD| value shown in the Typ column is based on the condition of XVDD_SRDS2-Typ = 1.0 V, no common mode offset
variation (VOS = 500 mV), SerDes2 transmitter is terminated with 100-Ω differential load between SD2_TX[n] and SD2_TX[n].

FIFO, GMII,MII, TBI, RGMII, RMII, and RTBI AC Timing
Specifications
The AC timing specifications for FIFO, GMII, MII, TBI, RGMII, RMII, and RTBI are presented in this
section.
8.5.1
FIFO AC Specifications
The basis for the AC specifications for the eTSEC FIFO modes is the double data rate RGMII and RTBI
specifications, since they have similar performance and are described in a source-synchronous fashion like
FIFO modes. However, the FIFO interface provides deliberate skew between the transmitted data and
source clock in GMII fashion.
When the eTSEC is configured for FIFO modes, all clocks are supplied from external sources to the
relevant eTSEC interface. That is, the transmit clock must be applied to the eTSECn TSECn_TX_CLK,
while the receive clock must be applied to pin TSECn_RX_CLK. The eTSEC internally uses the transmit
clock to synchronously generate transmit data and outputs an echoed copy of the transmit clock back out
onto the TSECn_GTX_CLK pin (while transmit data appears on TSECn_TXD[7:0], for example). It is
intended that external receivers capture eTSEC transmit data using the clock on TSECn_GTX_CLK as a
source-synchronous timing reference. Typically, the clock edge that launched the data can be used, since
the clock is delayed by the eTSEC to allow acceptable set-up margin at the receiver.
A summary of the FIFO AC specifications appears in Table 28 and Table 29.

1. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)(reference)(state) for inputs
and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tGTKHDV symbolizes GMII transmit timing
(GT) with respect to the tGTX clock reference (K) going to the high state (H) relative to the time date input signals (D) reaching
the valid state (V) to state or setup time. Also, tGTKHDX symbolizes GMII transmit timing (GT) with respect to the tGTX clock
reference (K) going to the high state (H) relative to the time date input signals (D) going invalid (X) or hold time. Note that, in
general, the clock reference symbol representation is based on three letters representing the clock of a particular functional.
For example, the subscript of tGTX represents the GMII(G) transmit (TX) clock. For rise and fall times, the latter convention
is used with the appropriate letter: R (rise) or F (fall).
2. Data valid tGTKHDV to GTX_CLK Min setup time is a function of clock period and max hold time (Min setup = cycle time – Max
delay).

1. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)(reference)(state) for
inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tMRDVKH symbolizes MII receive
timing (MR) with respect to the time data input signals (D) reach the valid state (V) relative to the tMRX clock reference (K)
going to the high (H) state or setup time. Also, tMRDXKL symbolizes MII receive timing (GR) with respect to the time data input
signals (D) went invalid (X) relative to the tMRX clock reference (K) going to the low (L) state or hold time. Note that, in general,
the clock reference symbol representation is based on three letters representing the clock of a particular functional. For
example, the subscript of tMRX represents the MII (M) receive (RX) clock. For rise and fall times, the latter convention is used
with the appropriate letter: R (rise) or F (fall).

inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tTTKHDV symbolizes the TBI
transmit timing (TT) with respect to the time from tTTX (K) going high (H) until the referenced data signals (D) reach the valid

TBI Single-Clock Mode AC Specifications
When the eTSEC is configured for TBI modes, all clocks are supplied from external sources to the relevant
eTSEC interface. In single-clock TBI mode, when TBICON[CLKSEL] = 1, a 125-MHz TBI receive clock
is supplied on the TSECn_RX_CLK pin (no receive clock is used on TSECn_TX_CLK in this mode,
whereas for the dual-clock mode this is the PMA1 receive clock). The 125-MHz transmit clock is applied
on the TSEC_GTX_CLK125 pin in all TBI modes.

1. In general, the clock reference symbol representation for this section is based on the symbols RGT to represent RGMII and
RTBI timing. For example, the subscript of tRGT represents the TBI (T) receive (RX) clock. Note also that the notation for rise
(R) and fall (F) times follows the clock symbol that is being represented. For symbols representing skews, the subscript is
skew (SK) followed by the clock that is being skewed (RGT).
2. This implies that PC board design will require clocks to be routed such that an additional trace delay of greater than 1.5 ns
will be added to the associated clock signal.
3. For 10 and 100 Mbps, tRGT scales to 400 ns 40 ns and 40 ns 4 ns, respectively.
4. Duty cycle may be stretched/shrunk during speed changes or while transitioning to a received packet's clock domains as long
as the minimum duty cycle is not violated and stretching occurs for no more than three tRGT of the lowest speed transitioned
between.
5. Guaranteed by design.

Notes:
1. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)(reference)(state) for
inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tLBIXKH1 symbolizes local bus
timing (LB) for the input (I) to go invalid (X) with respect to the time the tLBK clock reference (K) goes high (H), in this case for
clock one (1). Also, tLBKHOX symbolizes local bus timing (LB) for the tLBK clock reference (K) to go high (H), with respect to
the output (O) going invalid (X) or output hold time.
2. All timings are in reference to LSYNC_IN for PLL enabled and internal local bus clock for PLL bypass mode.
3. All signals are measured from BVDD/2 of the rising edge of LSYNC_IN for PLL enabled or internal local bus clock for PLL
bypass mode to 0.4 × BVDD of the signal in question for 3.3-V signaling levels.
4. Input timings are measured at the pin.
5. For purposes of active/float timing measurements, the Hi-Z or off state is defined to be when the total current delivered
through the component pin is less than or equal to the leakage current specification.
6. tLBOTOT is a measurement of the minimum time between the negation of LALE and any change in LAD. tLBOTOT is
programmed with the LBCR[AHD] parameter.
7. Maximum possible clock skew between a clock LCLK[m] and a relative clock LCLK[n]. Skew measured between
complementary signals at BVDD/2.

Notes:
1. All outputs are measured from the midpoint voltage of the falling/rising edge of tTCLK to the midpoint of the signal in question.
The output timings are measured at the pins. All output timings assume a purely resistive 50-Ω load (see Figure 34).
Time-of-flight delays must be added for trace lengths, vias, and connectors in the system.
2. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)(reference)(state) for
inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tJTDVKH symbolizes JTAG device
timing (JT) with respect to the time data input signals (D) reaching the valid state (V) relative to the tJTG clock reference (K)
going to the high (H) state or setup time. Also, tJTDXKH symbolizes JTAG timing (JT) with respect to the time data input signals
(D) went invalid (X) relative to the tJTG clock reference (K) going to the high (H) state. Note that, in general, the clock reference
symbol representation is based on three letters representing the clock of a particular functional. For rise and fall times, the
latter convention is used with the appropriate letter: R (rise) or F (fall).
3. TRST is an asynchronous level sensitive signal. The setup time is for test purposes only.
4. Non-JTAG signal input timing with respect to tTCLK
.
5. Non-JTAG signal output timing with respect to tTCLK

Notes:
1. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)(reference)(state) for
inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tI2DVKH symbolizes I2C timing (I2)
with respect to the time data input signals (D) reach the valid state (V) relative to the tI2C clock reference (K) going to the high
(H) state or setup time. Also, tI2SXKL symbolizes I2C timing (I2) for the time that the data with respect to the start condition
(S) went invalid (X) relative to the tI2C clock reference (K) going to the low (L) state or hold time. Also, tI2PVKH symbolizes I2C
timing (I2) for the time that the data with respect to the stop condition (P) reaching the valid state (V) relative to the tI2C clock
reference (K) going to the high (H) state or setup time. For rise and fall times, the latter convention is used with the appropriate
letter: R (rise) or F (fall).
2. The MPC8544E provides a hold time of at least 300 ns for the SDA signal (referred to the VIHmin of the SCL signal) to bridge
the undefined region of the falling edge of SCL.
3. The maximum tI2DXKL has only to be met if the device does not stretch the LOW period (tI2CL) of the SCL signal.

16 High-Speed Serial Interfaces (HSSI)
The MPC8544E features two serializer/deserializer (SerDes) interfaces to be used for high-speed serial
interconnect applications.The SerDes1 dedicated for PCI Express data transfers. The SerDes2 can be used
for PCI Express and/or SGMII application. This section describes the common portion of SerDes DC
electrical specifications, which is the DC requirement for SerDes Reference Clocks. The SerDes data
lane’s transmitter and receiver reference circuits are also shown.
16.1 Signal Terms Definition
The SerDes utilizes differential signaling to transfer data across the serial link. This section defines terms
used in the description and specification of differential signals.
Figure 44 shows how the signals are defined. For illustration purpose, only one SerDes lane is used for
description. The figure shows waveform for either a transmitter output (SDn_TX and SDn_TX) or a
receiver input (SDn_RX and SDn_RX). Each signal swings between A Volts and B Volts where A > B.
MPC8544E PowerQUICC III Integrated Processor Hardware Specifications, Rev. 8
Freescale Semiconductor
63
High-Speed Serial Interfaces (HSSI)
Using this waveform, the definitions are as follows. To simplify illustration, the following definitions
assume that the SerDes transmitter and receiver operate in a fully symmetrical differential signaling
environment.
1. Single-Ended Swing
The transmitter output signals and the receiver input signals SDn_TX, SDn_TX, SDn_RX and
SDn_RX each have a peak-to-peak swing of A - B Volts. This is also referred as each signal wire’s
Single-Ended Swing.
2. Differential Output Voltage, V (or Differential Output Swing):
OD
The Differential Output Voltage (or Swing) of the transmitter, V , is defined as the difference of
OD
the two complimentary output voltages: V
or negative.
– V
The V value can be either positive
SDn_TX
SDn_TX. OD
3. Differential Input Voltage, V (or Differential Input Swing):

ID
two complimentary input voltages: V
negative.
– V
The V value can be either positive or
SDn_RX
SDn_RX. ID
4. Differential Peak Voltage, V
DIFFp
The peak value of the differential transmitter output signal or the differential receiver input signal
is defined as Differential Peak Voltage, V = |A – B| Volts.
DIFFp
5. Differential Peak-to-Peak, V
DIFFp-p
Since the differential output signal of the transmitter and the differential input signal of the receiver
each range from A – B to –(A – B) Volts, the peak-to-peak value of the differential transmitter
output signal or the differential receiver input signal is defined as Differential Peak-to-Peak
Voltage, V
= 2*V
= 2 * |(A – B)| Volts, which is twice of differential swing in
DIFFp-p
DIFFp
amplitude, or twice of the differential peak. For example, the output differential peak-peak voltage
can also be calculated as V
= 2*|V |.
TX-DIFFp-p
OD
6. Differential Waveform
The differential waveform is constructed by subtracting the inverting signal (SDn_TX, for
example) from the non-inverting signal (SDn_TX, for example) within a differential pair. There is
only one signal trace curve in a differential waveform. The voltage represented in the differential
waveform is not referenced to ground. Refer to Figure 44 as an example for differential waveform.
7. Common Mode Voltage, V
cm
The Common Mode Voltage is equal to one half of the sum of the voltages between each conductor
of a balanced interchange circuit and ground. In this example, for SerDes output, V
=
cm_out
V
+ V
= (A + B) / 2, which is the arithmetic mean of the two complimentary output
SDn_TX
SDn_TX
voltages within a differential pair. In a system, the common mode voltage may often differ from
one component’s output to the other’s input. Sometimes, it may be even different between the
receiver input and driver output circuits within the same component. It is also referred as the DC
offset in some occasions.

Figure 44. Differential Voltage Definitions for Transmitter or Receiver
To illustrate these definitions using real values, consider the case of a CML (Current Mode Logic)
transmitter that has a common mode voltage of 2.25 V and each of its outputs, TD and TD, has a swing
that goes between 2.5 V and 2.0 V. Using these values, the peak-to-peak voltage swing of each signal (TD
or TD) is 500 mV p-p, which is referred as the single-ended swing for each signal. In this example, since
the differential signaling environment is fully symmetrical, the transmitter output’s differential swing
(V ) has the same amplitude as each signal’s single-ended swing. The differential output signal ranges
OD
between 500 mV and –500 mV, in other words, V is 500 mV in one phase and –500 mV in the other
OD
phase. The peak differential voltage (V
is 1000 mV p-p.
) is 500 mV. The peak-to-peak differential voltage (V

16.2 SerDes Reference Clocks
The SerDes reference clock inputs are applied to an internal PLL whose output creates the clock used by
the corresponding SerDes lanes. The SerDes reference clocks inputs are SD1_REF_CLK and
SD1_REF_CLK for PCI Express1, PCI Express2. SD2_REF_CLK, and SD2_REF_CLK for the PCI
Express3 or SGMII interface, respectively. The following sections describe the SerDes reference clock
requirements and some application information.
16.2.1 SerDes Reference Clock Receiver Characteristics
Figure 45 shows a receiver reference diagram of the SerDes reference clocks.
•
•
The supply voltage requirements for XV
are specified in Table 1 and Table 2.
DD_SRDS2
SerDes reference clock receiver reference circuit structure
— The SDn_REF_CLK and SDn_REF_CLK are internally AC-coupled differential inputs as
shown in Figure 45. Each differential clock input (SDn_REF_CLK or SDn_REF_CLK) has a
50-Ω termination to SGND_SRDSn (xcorevss) followed by on-chip AC-coupling.
— The external reference clock driver must be able to drive this termination.
MPC8544E PowerQUICC III Integrated Processor Hardware Specifications, Rev. 8
Freescale Semiconductor
65
High-Speed Serial Interfaces (HSSI)
— The SerDes reference clock input can be either differential or single-ended. Refer to the
differential mode and single-ended mode description below for further detailed requirements.
•
The maximum average current requirement that also determines the common mode voltage range:
— When the SerDes reference clock differential inputs are DC coupled externally with the clock
driver chip, the maximum average current allowed for each input pin is 8 mA. In this case, the
exact common mode input voltage is not critical as long as it is within the range allowed by the
maximum average current of 8 mA (refer to the following bullet for more detail), since the
input is AC-coupled on-chip.
— This current limitation sets the maximum common mode input voltage to be less than 0.4 V
(0.4 V/50 = 8 mA) while the minimum common mode input level is 0.1 V above
SGND_SRDSn (xcorevss). For example, a clock with a 50/50 duty cycle can be produced by
a clock driver with output driven by its current source from 0mA to 16mA (0–0.8 V), such that
each phase of the differential input has a single-ended swing from 0 V to 800 mV with the
common mode voltage at 400 mV.
— If the device driving the SDn_REF_CLK and SDn_REF_CLK inputs cannot drive 50 Ω to
SGND_SRDSn (xcorevss) DC, or it exceeds the maximum input current limitations, then it
must be AC-coupled off-chip.
•

16.2.2 DC Level Requirement for SerDes Reference Clocks
The DC level requirement for the MPC8544E SerDes reference clock inputs is different depending on the
signaling mode used to connect the clock driver chip and SerDes reference clock inputs as described
below.
•
Differential Mode
— The input amplitude of the differential clock must be between 400 and 1600 mV differential
peak-peak (or between 200 and 800 mV differential peak). In other words, each signal wire of
the differential pair must have a single-ended swing less than 800 mV and greater than 200 mV.
This requirement is the same for both external DC-coupled or AC-coupled connection.
MPC8544E PowerQUICC III Integrated Processor Hardware Specifications, Rev. 8
66
Freescale Semiconductor
High-Speed Serial Interfaces (HSSI)
— For external DC-coupled connection, as described in Section 16.2.1, “SerDes Reference
Clock Receiver Characteristics,” the maximum average current requirements sets the
requirement for average voltage (common mode voltage) to be between 100 and 400 mV.
Figure 46 shows the SerDes reference clock input requirement for DC-coupled connection
scheme.
— For external AC-coupled connection, there is no common mode voltage requirement for the
clock driver. Since the external AC-coupling capacitor blocks the DC level, the clock driver
and the SerDes reference clock receiver operate in different command mode voltages. The
SerDes reference clock receiver in this connection scheme has its common mode voltage set to
SGND_SRDSn. Each signal wire of the differential inputs is allowed to swing below and above
the command mode voltage (SGND_SRDSn). Figure 47 shows the SerDes reference clock
input requirement for AC-coupled connection scheme.
•
Single-ended Mode
— The reference clock can also be single-ended. The SDn_REF_CLK input amplitude
(single-ended swing) must be between 400 and 800 mV peak-peak (from Vmin to Vmax) with
SDn_REF_CLK either left unconnected or tied to ground.
— The SDn_REF_CLK input average voltage must be between 200 and 400 mV. Figure 48 shows
the SerDes reference clock input requirement for single-ended signaling mode.
— To meet the input amplitude requirement, the reference clock inputs might need to be DC or
AC-coupled externally. For the best noise performance, the reference of the clock could be DC
or AC-coupled into the unused phase (SDn_REF_CLK) through the same source impedance as
the clock input (SDn_REF_CLK) in use.

16.2.3 Interfacing With Other Differential Signaling Levels
With on-chip termination to SGND_SRDSn (xcorevss), the differential reference clocks inputs are HCSL
(high-speed current steering logic) compatible DC-coupled.
Many other low voltage differential type outputs like LVDS (low voltage differential signaling) can be
used but may need to be AC-coupled due to the limited common mode input range allowed (100 to
400 mV) for DC-coupled connection.
LVPECL outputs can produce signal with too large amplitude and may need to be DC-biased at clock
driver output first, then followed with series attenuation resistor to reduce the amplitude, in addition to
AC-coupling.
NOTE
Figure 49 through Figure 52 are for conceptual reference only. Due to the
fact that clock driver chip's internal structure, output impedance and
termination requirements are different between various clock driver chip
manufacturers, it is very possible that the clock circuit reference designs
provided by clock driver chip vendor are different from what is shown
below. They might also vary from one vendor to the other. Therefore,
Freescale Semiconductor can neither provide the optimal clock driver
reference circuits, nor guarantee the correctness of the following clock
driver connection reference circuits. The system designer is recommended
to contact the selected clock driver chip vendor for the optimal reference
circuits with the MPC8544E SerDes reference clock receiver requirement
provided in this document.

LVDS output driver features 50-Ω termination resistor. It also assumes that the LVDS transmitter

assumes that the LVPECL clock driver’s output impedance is 50 Ω. R1 is used to DC-bias the LVPECL
outputs prior to AC-coupling. Its value could be ranged from 140 to 240 Ω depending on clock driver
vendor’s requirement. R2 is used together with the SerDes reference clock receiver’s 50-Ω termination
resistor to attenuate the LVPECL output’s differential peak level such that it meets the MPC8544E SerDes
reference clock’s differential input amplitude requirement (between 200 and 800 mV differential peak).
For example, if the LVPECL output’s differential peak is 900 mV and the desired SerDes reference clock
input amplitude is selected as 600 mV, the attenuation factor is 0.67, which requires R2 = 25 Ω. Please
consult clock driver chip manufacturer to verify whether this connection scheme is compatible with a

16.2.4 AC Requirements for SerDes Reference Clocks
The clock driver selected should provide a high quality reference clock with low phase noise and
cycle-to-cycle jitter. Phase noise less than 100 kHz can be tracked by the PLL and data recovery loops and
is less of a problem. Phase noise above 15 MHz is filtered by the PLL. The most problematic phase noise
occurs in the 1–15 MHz range. The source impedance of the clock driver should be 50 Ω to match the
transmission line and reduce reflections which are a source of noise to the system.

3. Measured from –200 mV to +200 mV on the differential waveform (derived from SDn_REF_CLK minus SDn_REF_CLK). The
signal must be monotonic through the measurement region for rise and fall time. The 400 mV measurement window is
centered on the differential zero crossing. See Figure 53.
4. Matching applies to rising edge rate for SDn_REF_CLK and falling edge rate for SDn_REF_CLK. It is measured using a
200 mV window centered on the median cross point where SDn_REF_CLK rising meets SDn_REF_CLK falling. The median
cross point is used to calculate the voltage thresholds the oscilloscope is to use for the edge rate calculations. The rise edge
rate of SDn_REF_CLK should be compared to the fall edge rate of SDn_REF_CLK, the maximum allowed difference should
not exceed 20% of the slowest edge rate. See Figure 54.

SD1_REF_CLK/SD1_REF_CLK were designed to work with a spread spectrum clock (+0 to –0.5%
spreading at 30–33 kHz rate is allowed), assuming both ends have same reference clock. For better results,
a source without significant unintended modulation should be used.

17.4.2 Transmitter Compliance Eye Diagrams
The TX eye diagram in Figure 56 is specified using the passive compliance/test measurement load (see
Figure 58) in place of any real PCI Express interconnect +RX component.
There are two eye diagrams that must be met for the transmitter. Both eye diagrams must be aligned in
time using the jitter median to locate the center of the eye diagram. The different eye diagrams will differ
in voltage depending whether it is a transition bit or a de-emphasized bit. The exact reduced voltage level
of the de-emphasized bit will always be relative to the transition bit.
The eye diagram must be valid for any 250 consecutive UIs.
A recovered TX UI is calculated over 3500 consecutive unit intervals of sample data. The eye diagram is
created using all edges of the 250 consecutive UI in the center of the 3500 UI used for calculating the
TX UI.
NOTE
It is recommended that the recovered TX UI is calculated using all edges in
the 3500 consecutive UI interval with a fit algorithm using a minimization
merit function (that is, least squares and median deviation fits).

Notes:
1. No test load is necessarily associated with this value.
2. Specified at the measurement point and measured over any 250 consecutive UIs. The test load in Figure 58 should be used
as the RX device when taking measurements (also refer to the receiver compliance eye diagram shown in Figure 57). If the
clocks to the RX and TX are not derived from the same reference clock, the TX UI recovered from 3500 consecutive UI must
be used as a reference for the eye diagram.
3. A TRX-EYE = 0.40 UI provides for a total sum of 0.60 UI deterministic and random jitter budget for the transmitter and
interconnect collected any 250 consecutive UIs. The TRX-EYE-MEDIAN-to-MAX-JITTER specification ensures a jitter
distribution in which the median and the maximum deviation from the median is less than half of the total. UI jitter budget
collected over any 250 consecutive TX UIs. It should be noted that the median is not the same as the mean. The jitter median
describes the point in time where the number of jitter points on either side is approximately equal as opposed to the averaged
time value. If the clocks to the RX and TX are not derived from the same reference clock, the TX UI recovered from 3500
consecutive UI must be used as the reference for the eye diagram.
4. The receiver input impedance shall result in a differential return loss greater than or equal to 15 dB with the D+ line biased to
300 mV and the D– line biased to –300 mV and a common mode return loss greater than or equal to 6 dB (no bias required)
over a frequency range of 50 MHz to 1.25 GHz. This input impedance requirement applies to all valid input levels. The
reference impedance for return loss measurements for is 50 Ω to ground for both the D+ and D– line (that is, as measured
by a vector network analyzer with 50-Ω probes, see Figure 58). Note that the series capacitors CTX is optional for the return
loss measurement.
5. Impedance during all LTSSM states. When transitioning from a fundamental reset to detect (the initial state of the LTSSM)
there is a 5-ms transition time before receiver termination values must be met on all unconfigured lanes of a port.
6. The RX DC common mode impedance that exists when no power is present or fundamental reset is asserted. This helps
ensure that the receiver detect circuit will not falsely assume a receiver is powered on when it is not. This term must be
measured at 300 mV above the RX ground.
7. It is recommended that the recovered TX UI is calculated using all edges in the 3500 consecutive UI interval with a fit algorithm
using a minimization merit function. Least squares and median deviation fits have worked well with experimental and
simulated data.
17.5 Receiver Compliance Eye Diagrams
The RX eye diagram in Figure 57 is specified using the passive compliance/test measurement load (see
Figure 58) in place of any real PCI Express RX component.
In general, the minimum receiver eye diagram measured with the compliance/test measurement load (see
Figure 58) will be larger than the minimum receiver eye diagram measured over a range of systems at the
input receiver of any real PCI Express component. The degraded eye diagram at the input receiver is due
to traces internal to the package as well as silicon parasitic characteristics which cause the real PCI Express
component to vary in impedance from the compliance/test measurement load. The input receiver eye
diagram is implementation specific and is not specified. RX component designer should provide additional
margin to adequately compensate for the degraded minimum receiver eye diagram (shown in Figure 57)
expected at the input receiver based on some adequate combination of system simulations and the return
loss measured looking into the RX package and silicon. The RX eye diagram must be aligned in time using
the jitter median to locate the center of the eye diagram.

Notes:
1.All multiplexed signals are listed only once and do not re-occur. For example, LCS5/DMA_REQ2 is listed only once in the
Local Bus Controller Interface section, and is not mentioned in the DMA section even though the pin also functions as
DMA_REQ2.
2.Recommend a weak pull-up resistor (2–10 KΩ) be placed on this pin to OVDD
.
3.This pin must always be pulled high.
4.This pin is a reset configuration pin. It has a weak internal pull-up P-FET which is enabled only when the processor is in the
reset state. This pull-up is designed such that it can be overpowered by an external 4.7-kΩ pull-down resistor. However, if
the signal is intended to be high after reset, and if there is any device on the net which might pull down the value of the net
at reset, then a pull-up or active driver is needed. TSEC3_TXD[3] (cfg_srds_sgmii_refclk) is an exception, because the
default value of this configuration signal is low (0). Thus, no external pull-down resistor is needed for selecting the default
configuration value.
5. Treat these pins as no connects (NC) unless using debug address functionality.

6.The value of LA[28:31] during reset sets the CCB clock to SYSCLK PLL ratio. These pins require 4.7-kΩ pull-up or pull-down
resistors. See Section 19.2, “CCB/SYSCLK PLL Ratio.”
7.The value of LALE, LGPL2, and LBCTL at reset set the e500 core clock to CCB clock PLL ratio. These pins require 4.7-kΩ
pull-up or pull-down resistors. See Section 19.3, “e500 Core PLL Ratio.”
8.Functionally, this pin is an output, but structurally it is an I/O because it either samples configuration input during reset or
because it has other manufacturing test functions. Therefore, this pin will be described as an I/O for boundary scan.
9.For proper state of these signals during reset, DMA_DACK[1] must be pulled down to GND through a resistor. DMA_DACK[0]
can be pulled up or left without a resistor. However, if there is any device on the net which might pull down the value of the
net at reset, then a pullup is needed on DMA_DACK[0].
10.This output is actively driven during reset rather than being three-stated during reset.
11.These JTAG pins have weak internal pull-up P-FETs that are always enabled.
12.These pins are connected to the VDD/GND planes internally and may be used by the core power supply to improve tracking
and regulation.
13.Anode and cathode of internal thermal diode.
14.Treat pins AC7, T5, V2, and M7 as spare configuration pins cfg_spare[0:3]. The spare pins are unused POR config pins. It
is highly recommended that the customer provide the capability of setting these pins low (that is, pull-down resistor which
is not currently stuffed) in order to support new config options should they arise between revisions.
15.If this pin is connected to a device that pulls down during reset, an external pull-up is required to drive this pin to a safe state
during reset.
16.This pin is only an output in FIFO mode when used as Rx flow control.
17.Do not connect.
18.These are test signals for factory use only and must be pulled up (100 Ω to 1 kΩ) to OVDD for normal machine operation.
19.Independent supplies derived from board VDD
.
20.Recommend a pull-up resistor (1 K~) be placed on this pin to OVDD
.
21.The following pins must not be pulled down during power-on reset: HRESET_REQ, TRIG_OUT/READY/QUIESCE,
MSRCID[2:4], and ASLEEP.
22.This pin requires an external 4.7-kΩ pull-down resistor to prevent PHY from seeing a valid transmit enable before it is actively
driven.
23.General-purpose POR configuration of user system.
24.When a PCI block is disabled, either the POR config pin that selects between internal and external arbiter must be pulled
down to select external arbiter if there is any other PCI device connected on the PCI bus, or leave the address pins as No
Connect or terminated through 2–10 kΩ pull-up resistors with the default of internal arbiter if the address pins are not
connected to any other PCI device. The PCI block will drive the address pins if it is configured to be the PCI arbiter—through
POR config pins—irrespective of whether it is disabled via the DEVDISR register or not. It may cause contention if there is
any other PCI device connected on the bus.
25.MDIC0 is grounded through an 18.2-Ω precision 1% resistor and MDIC1 is connected GVDD through an 18.2-Ω precision
1% resistor. These pins are used for automatic calibration of the DDR IOs.
26.For SGMII mode.
27.Connect to GND.
28.For systems that boot from a local bus (GPCM)-controlled flash, a pull-up on LGPL4 is required.

Simulations with heat sinks were done with the package mounted on the 2s2p thermal test board. The
thermal interface material was a typical thermal grease such as Dow Corning 340 or Wakefield 120 grease.
For system thermal modeling, the MPC8544E thermal model without a lid is shown in Figure 60. The
substrate is modeled as a block 29 × 29 × 1.18 mm with an in-plane conductivity of 18.0 W/m•K and a
through-plane conductivity of 1.0 W/m•K. The solder balls and air are modeled as a single block
29 × 29 × 0.58 mm with an in-plane conductivity of 0.034 W/m•K and a through plane conductivity of
12.1 W/m•K. The die is modeled as 7.6 × 8.4 mm with a thickness of 0.75 mm. The bump/underfill layer
is modeled as a collapsed thermal resistance between the die and substrate assuming a conductivity of
6.5 W/m•K in the thickness dimension of 0.07 mm. The die is centered on the substrate. The thermal model
uses approximate dimensions to reduce grid. Please refer to Figure 59 for actual dimensions.

The Flotherm library files of the parts have a dense grid to accurately capture the laminar boundary layer
for flow over the part in standard JEDEC environments, as well as the heat spreading in the board under
the package. In a real system, however, the part will require a heat sink to be mounted on it. In this case,
the predominant heat flow path will be from the die to the heat sink. Grid density lower than currently in
the package library file will suffice for these simulations. The user will need to determine the optimal grid
for their specific case.

20.3 Thermal Management Information
This section provides thermal management information for the flip chip plastic ball grid array (FC-PBGA)
package for air-cooled applications. Proper thermal control design is primarily dependent on the
system-level design—the heat sink, airflow, and thermal interface material. The MPC8544E implements
several features designed to assist with thermal management, including the temperature diode. The
temperature diode allows an external device to monitor the die temperature in order to detect excessive
temperature conditions and alert the system; see Section 20.3.4, “Temperature Diode,” for more
information.
The recommended attachment method to the heat sink is illustrated in Figure 61. The heat sink should be
attached to the printed-circuit board with the spring force centered over the die. This spring force should
not exceed 10 pounds force (45 Newton).

performance at a given air velocity, spatial volume, mass, attachment method, assembly, and cost. Several
heat sinks offered by Aavid Thermalloy, Advanced Thermal Solutions, Alpha Novatech, IERC, Chip
Coolers, Millennium Electronics, and Wakefield Engineering offer different heat sink-to-ambient thermal
resistances, that will allow the MPC8544E to function in various environments.

The heat sink removes most of the heat from the device. Heat generated on the active side of the chip is
conducted through the silicon and through the heat sink attach material (or thermal interface material), and
finally to the heat sink. The junction-to-case thermal resistance is low enough that the heat sink attach
material and heat sink thermal resistance are the dominant terms.
20.3.2 Thermal Interface Materials
A thermal interface material is required at the package-to-heat sink interface to minimize the thermal
contact resistance. For those applications where the heat sink is attached by spring clip mechanism,
Figure 63 shows the thermal performance of three thin-sheet thermal-interface materials (silicone,
graphite/oil, floroether oil), a bare joint, and a joint with thermal grease as a function of contact pressure.
As shown, the performance of these thermal interface materials improves with increasing contact pressure.
The use of thermal grease significantly reduces the interface thermal resistance. The bare joint results in a
thermal resistance approximately six times greater than the thermal grease joint.

Heat sinks are attached to the package by means of a spring clip to holes in the printed-circuit board (see

During operation the die-junction temperatures (T ) should be maintained within the range specified in

Table 2. The temperature of air cooling the component greatly depends on the ambient inlet air temperature
and the air temperature rise within the electronic cabinet. An electronic cabinet inlet-air temperature (T )

may range from 30° to 40°C. The air temperature rise within a cabinet (T ) may be in the range of 5° to

20.3.4 Temperature Diode
The MPC8544E has a temperature diode on the microprocessor that can be used in conjunction with other
system temperature monitoring devices (such as Analog Devices, ADT7461™). These devices use the
negative temperature coefficient of a diode operated at a constant current to determine the temperature of
the microprocessor and its environment. It is recommended that each device be individually calibrated.
The following are voltage forward biased range of the on-board temperature diode:

21.1 System Clocking
This device includes six PLLs:

level should always be equivalent to V , and preferably these voltages will be derived directly from V
DD
DD
through a low frequency filter scheme such as the following.
There are a number of ways to reliably provide power to the PLLs, but the recommended solution is to
provide independent filter circuits per PLL power supply as illustrated in Figure 65, one to each of the
AV pins. By providing independent filters to each PLL the opportunity to cause noise injection from
DD
one PLL to the other is reduced.
This circuit is intended to filter noise in the PLLs resonant frequency range from a 500 kHz to 10 MHz
range. It should be built with surface mount capacitors with minimum Effective Series Inductance (ESL).
Consistent with the recommendations of Dr. Howard Johnson in High Speed Digital Design: A Handbook
of Black Magic (Prentice Hall, 1993), multiple small capacitors of equal value are recommended over a
single large value capacitor.
Each circuit should be placed as close as possible to the specific AV pin being supplied to minimize
DD
noise coupled from nearby circuits. It should be possible to route directly from the capacitors to the AV
pin, which is on the periphery of 783 FC-PBGA the footprint, without the inductance of vias.

Figure 66. For maximum effectiveness, the filter circuit is placed as closely as possible to the
AV _SRDSn balls to ensure it filters out as much noise as possible. The ground connection should be

21.3 Decoupling Recommendations
Due to large address and data buses, and high operating frequencies, the device can generate transient
power surges and high frequency noise in its power supply, especially while driving large capacitive loads.
This noise must be prevented from reaching other components in the MPC8544E system, and the device
itself requires a clean, tightly regulated source of power. Therefore, it is recommended that the system
designer place at least one decoupling capacitor at each V , TV , BV , OV , GV , and LV pin
DD
DD
DD
DD
DD

of the device. These decoupling capacitors should receive their power from separate V , TV , BV ,
DD

DD
OV , GV , and LV ; and GND power planes in the PCB, utilizing short low impedance traces to
DD
DD
DD
minimize inductance. Capacitors may be placed directly under the device using a standard escape pattern.
Others may surround the part.
These capacitors should have a value of 0.01 or 0.1 µF. Only ceramic SMT (surface mount technology)
capacitors should be used to minimize lead inductance, preferably 0402 or 0603 sizes.
In addition, it is recommended that there be several bulk storage capacitors distributed around the PCB,
feeding the V , TV , BV , OV , GV , and LV planes, to enable quick recharging of the
DD
DD
DD
DD
DD
DD
smaller chip capacitors. These bulk capacitors should have a low ESR (equivalent series resistance) rating
to ensure the quick response time necessary. They should also be connected to the power and ground
planes through two vias to minimize inductance. Suggested bulk capacitors—100–330 µF (AVX TPS
tantalum or Sanyo OSCON). However, customers should work directly with their power regulator vendor
for best values and types and quantity of bulk capacitors.
21.4 SerDes Block Power Supply Decoupling Recommendations
The SerDes block requires a clean, tightly regulated source of power (SV and XV ) to ensure low
DD
DD
jitter on transmit and reliable recovery of data in the receiver. An appropriate decoupling scheme is
outlined below.
Only surface mount technology (SMT) capacitors should be used to minimize inductance. Connections
from all capacitors to power and ground should be done with multiple vias to further reduce inductance.
•
First, the board should have at least 10 × 10-nF SMT ceramic chip capacitors as close as possible
to the supply balls of the device. Where the board has blind vias, these capacitors should be placed
directly below the chip supply and ground connections. Where the board does not have blind vias,
these capacitors should be placed in a ring around the device as close to the supply and ground
connections as possible.
•
•
Second, there should be a 1-µF ceramic chip capacitor on each side of the device. This should be
done for all SerDes supplies.
Third, between the device and any SerDes voltage regulator there should be a 10-µF, low
equivalent series resistance (ESR) SMT tantalum chip capacitor and a 100-µF, low ESR SMT
tantalum chip capacitor. This should be done for all SerDes supplies.

21.6 Pull-Up and Pull-Down Resistor Requirements
The MPC8544E requires weak pull-up resistors (2–10 kΩ is recommended) on open drain type pins
2
including I C pins and MPIC interrupt pins.
Correct operation of the JTAG interface requires configuration of a group of system control pins as
demonstrated in Figure 69. Care must be taken to ensure that these pins are maintained at a valid deasserted
state under normal operating conditions as most have asynchronous behavior and spurious assertion will
give unpredictable results.
The following pins must NOT be pulled down during power-on reset: TSEC3_TXD[3], HRESET_REQ,
TRIG_OUT/READY/QUIESCE, MSRCID[2:4], ASLEEP. The DMA_DACK[0:1] and TEST_SEL pins
must be set to a proper state during POR configuration. Refer to the pinout listing table (Table 62) for more
details. Refer to the PCI 2.2 Local Bus Specifications, for all pullups required for PCI.
21.7 Output Buffer DC Impedance
The MPC8544E drivers are characterized over process, voltage, and temperature. For all buses, the driver
2
is a push-pull single-ended driver type (open drain for I C). To measure Z for the single-ended drivers,
0
an external resistor is connected from the chip pad to OV or GND. Then, the value of each resistor is
DD
varied until the pad voltage is OV /2 (see Figure 67). The output impedance is the average of two
DD
components, the resistances of the pull-up and pull-down devices. When data is held high, SW1 is closed
(SW2 is open) and R is trimmed until the voltage at the pad equals OV /2. R then becomes the

21.8 Configuration Pin Muxing
The MPC8544E provides the user with power-on configuration options which can be set through the use
of external pull-up or pull-down resistors of 4.7 kΩ on certain output pins (see customer visible
configuration pins). These pins are generally used as output only pins in normal operation.
While HRESET is asserted however, these pins are treated as inputs. The value presented on these pins
while HRESET is asserted, is latched when HRESET deasserts, at which time the input receiver is disabled
and the I/O circuit takes on its normal function. Most of these sampled configuration pins are equipped
with an on-chip gated resistor of approximately 20 kΩ. This value should permit the 4.7-kΩ resistor to pull
the configuration pin to a valid logic low level. The pull-up resistor is enabled only during HRESET (and
for platform /system clocks after HRESET deassertion to ensure capture of the reset value). When the input
receiver is disabled the pull-up is also, thus allowing functional operation of the pin as an output with
minimal signal quality or delay disruption. The default value for all configuration bits treated this way has
MPC8544E PowerQUICC III Integrated Processor Hardware Specifications, Rev. 8
Freescale Semiconductor
109
System Design Information
been encoded such that a high voltage level puts the device into the default state and external resistors are
needed only when non-default settings are required by the user.
Careful board layout with stubless connections to these pull-down resistors coupled with the large value
of the pull-down resistor should minimize the disruption of signal quality or speed for output pins thus
configured.
The platform PLL ratio and e500 PLL ratio configuration pins are not equipped with these default pull-up
devices.
21.9 JTAG Configuration Signals
Correct operation of the JTAG interface requires configuration of a group of system control pins as
demonstrated in Figure 69. Care must be taken to ensure that these pins are maintained at a valid deasserted
state under normal operating conditions as most have asynchronous behavior and spurious assertion will
give unpredictable results.
Boundary-scan testing is enabled through the JTAG interface signals. The TRST signal is optional in the
IEEE 1149.1 specification, but is provided on all processors built on Power Architecture™ technology.
The device requires TRST to be asserted during reset conditions to ensure the JTAG boundary logic does
not interfere with normal chip operation. While it is possible to force the TAP controller to the reset state
using only the TCK and TMS signals, generally systems will assert TRST during the power-on reset flow.
Simply tying TRST to HRESET is not practical because the JTAG interface is also used for accessing the
common on-chip processor (COP) function.
The COP function of these processors allow a remote computer system (typically, a PC with dedicated
hardware and debugging software) to access and control the internal operations of the processor. The COP
interface connects primarily through the JTAG port of the processor, with some additional status
monitoring signals. The COP port requires the ability to independently assert HRESET or TRST in order
to fully control the processor. If the target system has independent reset sources, such as voltage monitors,
watchdog timers, power supply failures, or push-button switches, then the COP reset signals must be
merged into these signals with logic. The arrangement shown in Figure 69 allows the COP port to
independently assert HRESET or TRST, while ensuring that the target can drive HRESET as well.
The COP interface has a standard header, shown in Figure 68, for connection to the target system, and is
based on the 0.025" square-post, 0.100" centered header assembly (often called a Berg header). The
connector typically has pin 14 removed as a connector key.
The COP header adds many benefits such as breakpoints, watchpoints, register and memory
examination/modification, and other standard debugger features. An inexpensive option can be to leave
the COP header unpopulated until needed.
There is no standardized way to number the COP header; consequently, many different pin numbers have
been observed from emulator vendors. Some are numbered top-to-bottom then left-to-right, while others
use left-to-right then top-to-bottom, while still others number the pins counter clockwise from pin 1 (as
with an IC). Regardless of the numbering, the signal placement recommended in Figure 68 is common to
all known emulators.

System Design Information
21.9.1 Termination of Unused Signals
If the JTAG interface and COP header will not be used, Freescale recommends the following connections:
•
TRST should be tied to HRESET through a 0-kΩ isolation resistor so that it is asserted when the
system reset signal (HRESET) is asserted, ensuring that the JTAG scan chain is initialized during
the power-on reset flow. Freescale recommends that the COP header be designed into the system
as shown in Figure 69. If this is not possible, the isolation resistor will allow future access to TRST
in case a JTAG interface may need to be wired onto the system in future debug situations.
•
No pull-up/pull-down is required for TDI, TMS, or TDO.

Notes:
1. The COP port and target board should be able to independently assert HRESET and TRST to the processor
in order to fully control the processor as shown here.
2. Populate this with a 10-Ω resistor for short-circuit/current-limiting protection.
3. The KEY location (pin 14) is not physically present on the COP header.
4. Although pin 12 is defined as a No Connect, some debug tools may use pin 12 as an additional GND pin for
improved signal integrity.
5. This switch is included as a precaution for BSDL testing. The switch should be closed to position A during BSDL
testing to avoid accidentally asserting the TRST line. If BSDL testing is not being performed, this switch should be
closed to position B.
6. Asserting SRESET causes a machine check interrupt to the e500 core.

If PCI arbiter is enabled during POR,
All AD pins will be driven to the stable states after POR. Therefore, all ADs pins can be floating.
All PCI control pins can be grouped together and tied to OV through a single 10-kΩ resistor.
It is optional to disable PCI block through DEVDISR register after POR reset.
