Family Application Development Systems
MPC860 and MPC850
MPC860FADS and MPC850FADS
Freescale Semiconductor’s MPC860FADS
and MPC850SRFADS are family application
development systems (FADS) designed to aid
hardware and software developers working with
the MPC860 PowerQUICC™ Quad Integrated
Communications Controller and the MPC850
Integrated Communications Processor in quickly
evaluating and developing applications for these
devices. The FADS boards comprise of a
motherboard/daughterboard combination,
providing a common evaluation platform for
both the MPC860 and MPC850 Families.
Using the FADS onboard resources and its
associated debugger, developers may download
and run code, set breakpoints, display memory
and registers, and connect proprietary hardware
MPC860/850SRFADS
> Memory Disable option for
each local memory map slave
via the expansion connectors. Then, with an
MPC860 or MPC850 processor, that code
can be incorporated into a desired system. This
board can also be used as a demonstration tool.
For example, application software may
be burned into the board’s Flash memory and
run at exhibitions.
Motherboard Specifications
> Onboard debug port controller
with ADI interface
> Fast-IrDA (4 Mbps) port
with standby mode
> 4 MB, unbuffered
synchronous DRAM onboard
> Module enable indications
> 5V only PCMCIA socket with full
buffering, power control, and port
disable option
> 4 MB EDO 60 ns DRAM SIMM
with support for 4–32 MB FPM
or EDO DRAM SIMMs
The MPC860FADS includes SDRAM and
comes populated with an 860P processor. The
MPC860TFADS comes populated with an 860T
processor. The MPC850SRFADS, while very
similar to the MPC860FADS, has a 256-pin
BGA socket instead of a 357-pin BGA socket.
The MPC850SRFADS supports USB
> Dual RS232 ports with
low-power option
> Automatic DRAM SIMM identification
> 2 MB Flash SIMM with support
for up to 8 MB
> Single 5V supply
> Reverse/Over voltage
protection for power inputs
> Automatic Flash SIMM identification
> 10 base-T port with standby mode
> Board control and status register
> External tools identification capability
functionality and comes populated with the
high-end product, 850SR.
> Onboard debug port controller
with ADI I/F
