MPC8536DS

The MPC8536DS is a development system is ideal for hardware and software development for embedded applications. It leverages highly integrated MPC8536E processor, built on power architecture technology and leading edge external components. The high level of integration in the MPC8536E processor helps to lower system costs, improve performance and simplify board design. The MPC8536E processor also integrates an optional hardware encryption block that supports different algorithms for high performance data that is critical for supporting secure communications. A board support package (BSP) is preinstalled on the MPC8536DS. This BSP consists of a boot loader (u boot) and a generic power architecture technology system based on the Linux kernel. The u boot binary and the Linux kernel reside in the onboard flash memory with a file system preinstalled on the hard disk shipped in the MPC8536DS development system.
