SBC Module Description
The phyCORE-MPC555 is a cost-effective, high-performance Single Board Computer that packs the power of Freescale's embedded 32-bit PowerPC MPC555 microcontroller within a miniature footprint. All signals and ports of the MPC555 extend to two Molex high-density (0.635 mm pitch) 160-pin header connectors, making the controller resources readily available to the developer. These high-density pins allow the module to be plugged like a "big chip" into target hardware. The phyCORE-MPC555 can be populated with a maximum of 4 MB flow-through synchronous external BURST-SRAM for DATA storage and a maximum of 4 MB Flash memory at 0 wait states. The Flash serves as Boot and CODE memory and supports In-System programming. An additional 26 KB on-chip SRAM and 448 KB on-chip Flash memory is available on the MPC555. The 272-pin BGA controller also boasts a 64-bit Floating Point Unit, SPI, dual on-chip Full 2.0B CAN, dual-channel UART, and dual 16-channel A/D converters with 10-bit resolution.
Processor Details
The phyCORE-MPC555 supports the Freescale MPC555 controller.

RTOSes & Tools
The availability of tools is a primary criteria in the selection of a microcontroller for embedded development. Just as PHYTEC provides board-level support and Rapid Development Kits enabling easy evaluation, test and OEM integration of microcontroller cores for embedded designs, we also work closely with other partners up and down the embedded solutions chain. This ensures optimized interoperability of our boards with other tools, and provides embedded developers with what they need to speed design concepts to product and market.
