Family Application Development Systems
MPC860 and MPC850
Freescale Semiconductor鈥檚 MPC860FADS
and MPC850SRFADS are family application
development systems (FADS) designed to aid
hardware and software developers working with
the MPC860 PowerQUICC鈩?Quad Integrated
Communications Controller and the MPC850
Integrated Communications Processor in quickly
evaluating and developing applications for these
devices. The FADS boards comprise of a
motherboard/daughterboard combination,
providing a common evaluation platform for
both the MPC860 and MPC850 Families.
Using the FADS onboard resources and its
associated debugger, developers may download
and run code, set breakpoints, display memory
and registers, and connect proprietary hardware
via the expansion connectors. Then, with an
MPC860 or MPC850 processor, that code
can be incorporated into a desired system. This
board can also be used as a demonstration tool.
For example, application software may
be burned into the board鈥檚 Flash memory and
run at exhibitions.
The MPC860FADS includes SDRAM and
comes populated with an 860P processor. The
MPC860TFADS comes populated with an 860T
processor. The MPC850SRFADS, while very
similar to the MPC860FADS, has a 256-pin
BGA socket instead of a 357-pin BGA socket.
The MPC850SRFADS supports USB
functionality and comes populated with the
high-end product, 850SR.
