SOM Description
The phyCORE-ColdFire/MCF5485 supports the Freescale MCF5485 ColdFire family, which operates at a 200 MHz clock speed in industrial temperature range. On-chip functional units include MMU, FPU, Cache, PCI and DDR SDRAM. The module can be populated with up to 128 MB DDR SDRAM and 64 MB Flash. Ethernet, CAN, SPI, UART, USB 2.0, I²C, processor bus, PCI bus and all applicable processor signals extend to the external Molex connectors. The on-board user-programmable logic device is an additional special feature of the board, enabling load of processor firmware that can carry out specific tasks during runtime. It is possible, for example, to initialize a 32 KB dual-port SRAM or FIFO to receive data from external peripheral units. Functions such as Timer, Counter, CapComp, Decoder, Encoder, Demodulator, additional Chip Select signals, special generated control signals and fast I/O ports enable the module's wide range of use in embedded applications.
