This course covers the PowerQUICC II Pro MPC8308

Objectives The course explain the architecture of the MPC8308, particularly the operation of the coherency module that interconnects the e300 to memory and high-speed interfaces. Cache coherency protocol is introduced in increasing depth. The e300 core is viewed in detail, especially the MMU . The boot sequence and the clocking are explained. The course focuses on the hardware implementation of the MPC8308. A long introduction to DDR SDRAM operation is done before studying the DDR1/2 SDRAM controller. The course describes the sophisticated QoS mechanisms supported by the eTSEC Ethernet Controllers. Implementation of Precise Time Protocol is also explained. Generation of a Linux image and Root File System by using LTIB can also be included into the training. Products and services offered by ACSYS: ACSYS is able to assist the customer by providing consultancies Typical expertises are done during board bringup, hardware schematics review, software debugging, performance tuning. Note that ACSYS has delivered several consultancies on NXP Netcomm SoCs to companies developing avionic equipments. A more detailed course description is available on request at training@ac6-training.com A lot of programming examples have been developed by ACSYS to explain the boot sequence and the operation of complex peripherals, such as USB and Ethernet. •  They have been developed with Diab Data compiler and are executed using Lauterbach debugger.
