"Leopard" Nexus Emulation Board 257BGA – 100TQ
Ordering code
IA257BGA100TQ-564XL
Target CPU package: QFP100
Original microcontroller in the QFP100 package has no Nexus port at all which may be a
significant drawback during the development and test process.
"Leopard" Nexus Emulation Adapter is based on the MPC5643L microcontroller in the
BGA257 package (emulation device), which also exposes 12-bit Nexus port. The Emulation
Adapter exhibits the same behaviour to the target as the original 100-pin microcontroller and
additionally provides the Nexus port, which allows advanced functionalities like trace,
profiler and code coverage.
A 100-pin solder part, which must be ordered separately under the IA100TQ-SOLDER
ordering code, is soldered to the target (PCB) instead of populating the original
microcontroller in a 100-pin QFP package. Then the Emulation Adapter, which acts as the
original microcontroller and additionally provides debug Nexus port, is connected on top.
