PXR40PB Datasheet, PDF (6/23 Pages) Freescale Semiconductor, Inc – 32-bit Power Architecture® Microcontrollers for Real-Time Applications
Features
— Minimizes impact on performance
• Six read and three write operations per clock
— Integrates a pair of integer execution units, a branch control unit, instruction fetch unit and
load/store unit, and a multi-ported register file
• Branch target prefetching performed by the branch unit allows single-cycle branches in many cases
• 16 KB instruction cache and 16 KB data cache, both supporting error detection hardware.
• Memory management unit (MMU) with 64-entry fully-associative translation look-aside buffer (TLB)
• Nexus Class 3+ module
• Supports non-maskable interrupt (completely un-maskable and not guaranteed to be recoverable)
and critical interrupt (an interrupt that can be masked and is guaranteed to be recoverable) sources
— Routed from a single package pin, via edge detection logic in the SIU, to the CPU
• An additional Wait for Interrupt instruction:
— Used in conjunction with low power STOP mode
— Instruction stops the system clock
— An external interrupt source or the system wake-up timer restart the system clock, allowing the
CPU to service the interrupt
• Includes multiple input signature register (MISR) hardware which can be accessed by software to
implement CPU self test functionality
2.5.2 On-chip flash memory
The PXR40 flash memory module provides the following:
• 4 MB of programmable, non-volatile, flash memory
— Nonvolatile memory (NVM) can be used for instruction and/or data storage
• A fetch accelerator optimizes the performance of the flash memory array to match the CPU
architecture
— Architected to optimize the performance of the flash memory with the CPU to provide
single-cycle random access to the flash memory when in full clock mode, and two-cycle access
when in double clock mode
— Configurable read buffering and line prefetch support
• An interface between the system bus and a dedicated flash memory array controller
• Supports a 64-bit data bus width at the system bus port for CPU loads, DMA transfers and CPU
instruction fetch
— Byte, halfword, word, and doubleword reads are supported
— Only aligned word and doubleword writes are supported
• Hardware and software configurable read and write access protections on a per-master basis
• Pipelined interface to the flash memory array controller allowing overlapped accesses to proceed
in parallel for interleaved or pipelined flash memory array designs
• Configurable access timing allowing use in a wide range of system frequencies
