Overview
MPC8347EVVAJF from NXP (formerly Freescale) is a PowerQUICC™ II Pro integrated host processor featuring an embedded PowerPC e300 core operating up to 667 MHz, dual 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet controllers (TSEC), DDR SDRAM controller supporting 32-/64-bit interfaces at up to 333 MHz (TBGA), PCI 2.2-compliant 32-bit/66 MHz interface, and hardware security engine with AES-128/192/256, DES/3DES, SHA-1/256, and RSA acceleration - deployed in network edge routers, industrial gateways, and secure communications appliances.
For engineers reviewing the MPC8347EVVAJF datasheet, MPC8347EVVAJF pinout, MPC8347EVVAJF application, or MPC8347EVVAJF equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs (VDD = 1.2 V ±60 mV, GVDD = 2.5 V ±125 mV), thermal power data (up to 3.6 W typical in TBGA), DDR timing constraints (tDISKEW ≤750 ps @333 MHz), TSEC RGMII/RTBI interface support, and PCI host/agent mode configuration - all confirmed for revision 1.1 silicon per MPC8347EEC Rev. 11 (02/2009).
Technical Context
The MPC8347EVVAJF implements a superscalar PowerPC e300 core with 32 KB instruction and 32 KB data L1 caches (lockable portions), dynamic power management, and software compatibility across Power Architecture families. Its DDR SDRAM controller supports ECC, page mode (up to 16 open pages), and registered DIMM with SSTL2 I/O compliance.
It integrates dual TSECs compliant with IEEE 802.3z/ac/u/x standards, each with 2 KB TX/RX FIFOs, jumbo frame (9.6 KB) support, and MII/RGMII/TBI/RTBI physical layer flexibility. The security engine contains four crypto-channels with dedicated AESU, DEU, PKEU, MDEU, and RNG units - enabling concurrent IPSec/SSL/TLS offload without CPU intervention.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core Frequency | Up to 667 MHz - enables real-time packet forwarding and Linux-based routing stacks in compact embedded systems. |
| DDR Interface | 32-/64-bit, up to 333 MHz (TBGA), 2.5-V SSTL2 - supports high-bandwidth memory access for multi-service gateway applications. |
| Ethernet Controllers | Dual TSECs with RGMII/RTBI/MII - provides independent 10/100/1000 Mbps ports for WAN/LAN separation or failover redundancy. |
| PCI Interface | 32-bit, 66 MHz, PCI 2.2-compliant, host/agent mode - allows direct attachment of legacy NICs, storage controllers, or FPGA co-processors. |
| Security Engine | AES-128/192/256, SHA-1/256, RSA-2048, 4 crypto-channels - accelerates IPsec SA setup and encrypted tunnel throughput >200 Mbps line-rate. |
| Power Supply | VDD = 1.2 V ±60 mV, GVDD = 2.5 V ±125 mV, OVDD/LVDD = 3.3 V ±330 mV - requires tightly tracked, low-noise regulation for stable cache and I/O operation. |
| Thermal Dissipation | Max 3.6 W (TBGA, 533 MHz) - mandates heatsink + airflow design for sustained operation above 65°C ambient. |
Pinout & Package
The MPC8347EVVAJF is housed in a 620-pin TBGA (Thin Ball Grid Array) package with 1.0 mm ball pitch, designed for high-density PCB layouts requiring signal integrity optimization for DDR, PCI, and TSEC buses. Thermal pad on underside enables efficient heat transfer to internal ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CLKIN | Main system clock input | Accepts 1–66 MHz single-ended CMOS clock; primary source for PLL when in PCI host mode. |
| PCI_SYNC_IN | PCI synchronization input | Provides reference clock for PCI agent mode; used instead of CLKIN when device operates as PCI peripheral. |
| PORESET | Power-on reset input | Active-low asynchronous reset requiring ≥32 tCLKIN assertion before clock stabilization; initiates full boot sequence. |
| HRESET | Host reset output | Open-drain active-low signal asserting downstream peripherals; negated after PLL/DLL lock (~100 μs / 122,880 csb_clk cycles). |
| MDQ[0:63] | DDR data bus (64-bit) | Bidirectional DQ lines supporting DDR-1 SDRAM; require matched trace lengths and on-die termination calibration. |
| MCK[0:1] | DDR clock outputs | Differential DDR clock pair (MCK/MCK#); 333 MHz max frequency imposes strict <±750 ps skew vs. MDQS per byte group. |
| TSEC0_TXD[0:3] | RGMII transmit data | 4-bit nibble for 1000BASE-T RGMII interface; must meet tDDKHDS ≤900 ps setup to MDQS with controlled impedance (50 Ω). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar integrated host processor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPC8349EVRAGB | Same e300 core, higher max frequency (667 MHz), identical pinout, but supports DDR2 (not DDR1) and lacks integrated security engine. | Suitable for non-crypto-intensive networking where DDR2 bandwidth and lower power at same frequency are priorities. | Select MPC8349EVRAGB only if DDR2 memory and absence of hardware crypto acceleration are acceptable trade-offs. |
| MPC8548CVMALG | PowerPC e500v2 core, 1.33 GHz, integrated SerDes, PCIe v1.0, no TSEC - uses different architecture and lacks native 10/100/1000 Ethernet MACs. | Targets high-throughput control plane in telecom infrastructure where PCIe expansion and faster core matter more than integrated Ethernet. | Choose MPC8548CVMALG when migrating to PCIe-based I/O expansion and higher compute throughput is required, accepting external PHY dependency. |
Compared with MPC8347EVVAJF, MPC8349EVRAGB offers DDR2 support but removes hardware security acceleration, while MPC8548CVMALG delivers higher CPU performance and PCIe but eliminates integrated TSECs - making MPC8347EVVAJF uniquely balanced for cost-sensitive, crypto-aware, dual-Gigabit Ethernet edge applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum DDR data rate supported by the MPC8347EVVAJF?
The MPC8347EVVAJF supports DDR-1 SDRAM at up to 333 MHz data rate in the TBGA package variant, delivering 5.3 GB/s peak bandwidth on the 64-bit interface. This is confirmed in Section 6 of the MPC8347EEC Rev. 11 specification for revision 1.1 silicon. The PBGA variant is limited to 266 MHz. MPC8347EVVAJF requires 2.5-V SSTL2 I/O compliance and supports ECC, page mode, and registered DIMMs - all critical for reliable operation in carrier-grade edge equipment.
Does the MPC8347EVVAJF include hardware cryptographic acceleration?
Yes, the MPC8347EVVAJF integrates a dedicated security engine with four crypto-channels and execution units for AES-128/192/256, DES/3DES, SHA-1/256, MD5, RSA-2048, and RC4. This engine operates independently of the e300 core and enables line-rate IPsec and TLS offload. The MPC8347EVVAJF security block is explicitly documented in Sections 1.1 and 4 of the MPC8347EEC Rev. 11 datasheet, confirming full support for IPSec, SSL/TLS, and IEEE 802.11i protocols.
What are the key differences between MPC8347EVVAJF and MPC8349E?
The MPC8347EVVAJF and MPC8349E share the same e300 core and pinout but differ in memory support and security features: MPC8347EVVAJF supports DDR-1 only and includes a full hardware security engine, whereas MPC8349E adds DDR2 support but omits the security engine. Both operate up to 667 MHz. MPC8347EVVAJF remains optimal for DDR1-based, crypto-intensive designs where cost and proven silicon revision (1.1) are prioritized over newer memory standards.
Which Ethernet physical interfaces does the MPC8347EVVAJF TSEC support?
The MPC8347EVVAJF dual TSECs support MII (10/100 Mbps), GMII/RGMII (1000 Mbps), and TBI/RTBI (1000 Mbps) interfaces per IEEE 802.3z/ac/u/x standards. RGMII and RTBI modes are explicitly validated for 1000BASE-T operation with tight timing constraints (e.g., tDDKHDS ≤900 ps). These interfaces are detailed in Section 8 of the MPC8347EEC Rev. 11 datasheet and enable flexible PHY selection - including low-pin-count ULPI-connected transceivers for space-constrained designs.
Is the MPC8347EVVAJF compatible with PCI Express?
No, the MPC8347EVVAJF implements a PCI 2.2-compliant parallel bus interface (32-bit, 66 MHz), not PCI Express. It supports both host bridge and agent modes but lacks PCIe SerDes, transaction layer, or link training logic. For PCIe capability, designers must select later-generation NXP processors such as the MPC8548 or QorIQ series. The MPC8347EVVAJF PCI interface is fully documented in Section 13 of MPC8347EEC Rev. 11, including arbitration, address translation, and parity support.
