The MPC8245 combines a PowerPC™ MPC603e core with a PCI bridge. The PCI support on the MPC8245 will allow system designers to rapidly design systems using peripherals already designed for PCI and the other standard interfaces. The MPC8245 also integrates a high-performance memory controller which supports various types of ROM and SDRAM. The MPC8245 is the second of a family of products that provides system-level support for industry standard interfaces with a MPC603e processor core. This document describes pertinent electrical and physical characteristics of the MPC8245. For functional characteristics of the processor, refer to the MPC8245 Integrated Processor User’s Manual (MPC8245UM/D).
