Today’s small-to-medium businesses and consumer applications are driving the need for highly integrated, cost-effective solutions that deliver high performance. The MPC8378E provides a high-performance Power Architecture® e300 core up to 800MHz with 32K I/D L1 cache and integrated x2 PCI Express® controllers that help to reduce overall BOM cost. The system-on-chip (SoC) includes two Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) controllers with an SGMII interface for network connectivity, as well as a security engine for encryption algorithm offload. The MPC8378E, based in 90 nm process technology, provides high integration that simplifies board design and provides a cost-effective solution for applications such as wireless access points and routers.
Integrated x2 PCI Express® for high I/O connectivity.
Dual (GbE) controllers with SGMII interface for lower pin count than parallel interfaces.
High system performance with Power Architecture e300 core that can achieve up to 800 MHz
Security to support encryption algorithms (such as AES and DES/3DES)
