Reference Design Boards
The MPC8377E-RDB and MPC8379E-RDB
provide customers with highly integrated
reference design boards that can help shorten
customers’ time to market. The reference
designs are aimed at small-to-medium
business and consumer applications, such
as network attached storage (NAS) with RAID
5, multi-function printers and office-in-a box.
The cost-effective boards are based on the
MPC837x family, built on Power Architecture
technology, along with leading-edge external
components to help customers quickly design
and implement their target application.
The MPC8377-RDB leverages the MPC8377E
processor while the MPC8379E-RDB enables
the MPC8379E. The MPC837x family is based
on the e300 core, built on Power Architecture
technology, which has a frequency range of
400–667 MHz, and supports a 32K instruction
and L1 data cache. The MPC837x family also
supports two Gigabit Ethernet controllers,
USB 2.0, PCI 2.3, 64/32-bit DDR1/2 and an
integrated security engine. The MPC8377E
supports two x1 PCI Express
Serial-ATA II (SATA II) controllers, while the
MPC8379E supports four SATA II controllers.
The new MPC837x family, based in 90 nm
process technology, provides high integration
that simplifies board design and offers a cost-
effective solution.
®
and two
The MPC8377E-RDB and the MPC8379E-
RDB platforms feature 256 MB unbuffered
DDR2 SDRAM, 8 MB NOR flash and 32 MB
NAND flash, where the platforms can boot
from either NOR or NAND flash. They include
both a Gigabit PHY and a 5-port Ethernet
switch, as well as a 4-port USB hub or a
1-port USB on-the-go (OTG). The MPC8377E-
RDB also supports a PCI Express add-in
connector and a MiniPCI Express slot. The
MPC8379E-RDB platform also supports up to
four SATA II connectors. These components,
integrated with the MPC837x family, provide
an application-specific platform that can help
customers to get a jump start on their next
application design.
Along with the hardware support, the
MPC8379E-RDB and MPC8377-RDB come
with a board support package (BSP) that
includes both U-boot and Linux
The platform is also available with third-party
software applications. To see demonstrations
or to acquire details of Freescale’s third-party
applications for this platform, please contact
