Technical Features Of The Evb555 - Motorola EVB555 Quick Reference

The following list summarizes the technical features of the EVB555 evaluation board.
The architecture of the board is displayed in Figure 2-1 on the following page.
• General advantages
— Full function range of the MPC555 can be used
— Microcontroller works with variable clock rate (up to 40 MHz)
• Memory
— Contains 1 Mbyte fast, synchronous SRAM (32-bit wide, burstable)
— 512 Kbyte external flash memory (32-bit wide, burstable)
• Configurability
— Convenient configuration of the PLL of the microcontroller
via a triple DIP switch
— Reset configuration of the MPC555 via a DIP switch (32 bits)
• Extensive analysis and debug support
— Flexible BDM interface (background debug mode) for debugging
— Direct connection to the ETAS emulator test probe ETKP-1
— Excellent analysis possibilities with 268-pin interface for
logic analyzers (6 AMP Mictor and 2 berg type connector)
— Connection of the probe to Lauterbach Trace32
emulation and programming system
• Very good expansion capability
— MAPI-400 interface
Interface as a connection to a customer-specific base-board
(user extension board)
— Customized communication expansion
Customer-specific expansion module, e.g. for CAN,
additional serial interfaces (RS232)
— Host communication expansion
Expansion module for high-speed communication to host system,
e.g. via Ethernet, Firewire
— Port replacement unit (PRU)
In "external bus mode" 64 general purpose I/O pins are available
that are required by the MPC555 for the bus interface.
