The MGT5100 was introduced in 2002 and Motorola's first CPU for its mobileGT SoC-platform for telematic, information and entertainment applications in cars. Based on the e300 core that stems from the PowerPC 603e, it ran in speeds up to 230MHz and includes a double precisionFPU, 16/16 kB L1 data/instruction caches and a rich set of I/O peripherals like DDR SDRAM, USB, PCI, Ethernet, IrDA and ATA disk controllers.
The MPC5121e was introduced in May 2007 and is based on the MPC5200B. It is a 400MHz highly integrated SoC processor targeted for telematics applications and includes controllers for USB, PCI, networking, DDR RAM and disk storage. It also has an on-die PowerVR MBX LiteGPU supporting 3D acceleration and displays up to 1280×720 pixels and a fully programmable 200MHz RISCco-processor designed for multimedia processing like real-time audio and speech recognition.
The MPC5123 was introduced in April 2008 [link removed] and is essentially a MPC5121e without the PowerVR coprocessor. It's designed for telematics, point of sales systems, health care equipment, display kiosks and industrial automation.
MPC52xx
A 400 MHz MPC5200 from an EFIKA
The MPC5200 family is based on the e300 core MGT5100 processor and is also a part of Freescale's mobileGT platform.
MPC5200 – 266–400MHz, on-chip controllers for DDR-RAM, PCI, Ethernet, USB, ATA, serial, DMA and other I/O. Introduced in 2003, replaced by the MPC5200B.
MPC5200B – 266-466MHz, enhanced MPC5200, introduced in 2005. Also used in the small EFIKA computer.
MPC55xx
Based on the e200 core that stems from the MPC5xx core, it is upwards-compatible with the newer e500 core and the older PowerPC Book E specification. Focus is on automotive and industrial control systems, like robotics, power train and fuel injection. The cores are the basis for a multitude of SoC controllers ranging from 40 to 600MHz with a variety of additional functionality, like Flash-ROM, Ethernet controllers, and custom I/O. All MPC55xx processors are compliant with the Power ISA v.2.03 specification.
The MPC55xx family have four slightly different cores from the really low end and to the high end.
MPC5510 – uses an e200z1 core, with an optional e200z0 core as co-processor.
The MPC56xx family are PowerPC e200 core based microcontrollers jointly developed by Freescale and STMicroelectronics. Built on a 90nm fabrication process. These microcontrollers are tailor-made for automotive applications like power steering, fuel injection, display control, powertrain, active suspension, chassis control, anti-lock braking systems, and radar for adaptive cruise control. Freescale calls these processors MPC56xx and ST names them SPC56x.
MPC560xB/C or SPC560B/C – Uses a single e200z0 core at up to 64MHz, up to 512 kB Flash memory, 64 kB EEPROM, up to 48 kB RAM. Used for automotive body electronics applications.
MPC560xP or SPC560P – Uses a single e200z0 core at up to 60MHz, up to 512 kB Flash memory, up to 64 kB EEPROM, up to 40 kB RAM. Used for chassis and airbag control.
MPC560xS or SPC560S – Uses a single e200z0 core at up to 64MHz, up to 1 MB Flash memory, 64 kB EEPROM, up to 48 kB RAM, and an on-chip display controller with up to 160 kB VRAM. Used for TFT color display control.
MPC563xM or SPC563M – Uses a single e200z3 core at up to 80MHz, up to 1.5 MB Flash memory, up to 111 kB SRAM. Used for entry-level powertrain applications.
MPC564xL or SPC56EL – Uses dual e200z4 cores at 120MHz, 1 MB Flash memory, 128 kB SRAM.
MPC5668G – Uses one e200z6 core and one e200z0 core at up to 128MHz, up to 2 MB Flash memory, 592 kB SRAM, integrated Ethernet controller.
MPC5674F – Uses an e200z7 core, up to 264MHz, up to 4 MB Flash, 256 kB RAM. Used for powertrain, fuel and motor control.
