2.1.3 Output driver characteristics
This table provides information on the characteristics of the output driver strengths.
2.1.4 Power sequencing
It is required to apply the core supply voltage (VDD) before the I/O supply voltages (GVDD, LVDD, and
NVDD) and assert PORESET before the power supplies fully ramp up. The core voltage supply must rise
to 90% of its nominal value before the I/O supplies reach 0.7 V; see Figure 3.
If this recommendation is not observed and I/O voltages are supplied before the core voltage, there might
be a period of time that all input and output pins are actively driven and cause contention and excessive
current. To overcome side effects of this condition, the application environment may require tuning of
external pull-up or pull-down resistors on particular signals to lesser values.

circuit. Note that there is no specific power down sequence requirement for the device. I/O voltage
supplies (GVDD, LVDD, and NVDD) do not have any ordering requirements with respect to one another.

Notes:
1. tCISKEW represents the total amount of skew consumed by the controller between MDQS[n] and any corresponding bit that is
captured with MDQS[n]. This should be subtracted from the total timing budget.
2. The amount of skew that can be tolerated from MDQS to a corresponding MDQ or MECC signal is called tDISKEW. This can
be determined by the following equation: tDISKEW = +/–(T/4 – abs(tCISKEW)) where T is the clock period and abs(tCISKEW) is
the absolute value of tCISKEW.

Notes:
1. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state) (reference)(state) for
inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. Output hold time can be read as DDR timing
(DD) from the rising or falling edge of the reference clock (KH or KL) until the output went invalid (AX or DX). For example,
tDDKHAS symbolizes DDR timing (DD) for the time tMCK memory clock reference (K) goes from the high (H) state until outputs
(A) are setup (S) or output valid time. Also, tDDKLDX symbolizes DDR timing (DD) for the time tMCK memory clock reference
(K) goes low (L) until data outputs (D) are invalid (X) or data output hold time.
2. All MCK/MCK referenced measurements are made from the crossing of the two signals ±0.1 V.
3. ADDR/CMD includes all DDR SDRAM output signals except MCK/MCK, MCS, and MDQ/MECC/MDM/MDQS.
4. Note that tDDKHMH follows the symbol conventions described in note 1. For example, tDDKHMH describes the DDR timing (DD)
from the rising edge of the MCK[n] clock (KH) until the MDQS signal is valid (MH). tDDKHMH can be modified through control
of the DQSS override bits in the TIMING_CFG_2 register. This is typically set to the same delay as the clock adjust in the
CLK_CNTL register. The timing parameters listed in the table assume that these 2 parameters have been set to the same
adjustment value. For a description and understanding of the timing modifications enabled by use of these bits, see the
MPC8308 PowerQUICC II Pro Processor Reference Manual.

Notes:
1. In general, the clock reference symbol representation for this section is based on the symbols RGT to represent RGMII timing.
For example, the subscript of tRGT represents the RGMII receive (RX) clock. Note also that the notation for rise (R) and fall
(F) times follows the clock symbol that is being represented. For symbols representing skews, the subscript is skew (SK)
followed by the clock that is being skewed (RGT).
2. This implies that PC board design requires clocks to be routed such that an additional trace delay of greater than 1.5 ns is
added to the associated clock signal.
3. For 10 and 100 Mbps, tRGT scales to 400 ns ± 40 ns and 40 ns ± 4 ns, respectively.
4. Duty cycle may be stretched/shrunk during speed changes or while transitioning to a received packet's clock domains as long
as the minimum duty cycle is not violated and stretching occurs for no more than three tRGT of the lowest speed transitioned
between.
5. Duty cycle reference is 0.5*LVDD

High-Speed Serial interfaces (HSSI)
10 High-Speed Serial interfaces (HSSI)
This section describes the common portion of SerDes DC electrical specifications, which is the DC
requirement for SerDes reference clocks. The SerDes data lane’ s transmitter and receiver reference circuits
are also shown.
10.1 Signal terms definition
The SerDes utilizes differential sign aling to transfer data across the serial link. This section defines terms
used in the description and specification of differential signals.
Figure 15 shows how the signals are defined. For illustration purpose, only one SerDes lane is used for
description. The figure shows waveform for either a transmitter output (TXn and TXn) or a receiver input
(RXn and RXn). Each signal swings between A Volts and B Volts where A > B.
Using this waveform, the definitions are as follows. To simplify illustration, the following definitions
assume that the SerDes transmitter and receiver operate in a fully symmetrical differential signaling
environment.
Single-Ended Swing
The transmitter output signals and the receiver input signals TXn, TXn, RXn, and RXn each have
a peak-to-peak swing of A – B Volts. This is also referred as each signal wire’ s single-ended swing.
Differential Output Voltage, VOD (or Differential Output Swing)
The differential output voltage (or swing) of the transmitter, VOD, is defined as the difference of
the two complimentary output voltages: VTXn – VTXn. The VOD value can be either positive or
negative.
Differential Input Voltage, VID (or Differential Input Swing)
The differential input voltage (or swing) of the receiver , VID, is defined as the difference of the two
complimentary input voltages: VRXn – VRXn. The VID value can be either positive or negative.
Differential Peak Voltage, VDIFFp
The peak value of the differential transmitter output signal or the dif ferential receiver input signal
is defined as Differential Peak Voltage, VDIFFp = |A – B| Volts.
Differential Peak-to-Peak, VDIFFp-p
Since the differential output signal of the transmitter and the differential input signal of the receiver
each range from A – B to –(A – B) Volts, the peak-to-peak value of the differential transmitter
output signal or the differential receiver input signal is defined as differential peak-to-peak voltage,
VDIFFp-p = 2*VDIFFp = 2 * |(A – B)| Volts, which is twice of dif ferential swing in amplitude, or
twice of the differential peak. For example, the output differential peak-peak voltage can also be
calculated as VTX-DIFFp-p = 2*|VOD|.
Differential Waveform
The differential waveform is constructed by subtracting the inverting signal (for example, TXn)
from the non-inverting signal (for example, TXn) within a differential pair . There is only one signal
trace curve in a diff erential waveform. The voltage represented in the dif ferential waveform is not
referenced to ground. Refer to Figure 24 as an example for differential waveform.
MPC8308 PowerQUICC II Pro Processor Hardware Specification, Rev. 4
26 Freescale Semiconductor
High-Speed Serial interfaces (HSSI)
Common Mode Voltage, Vcm
The common mode voltage is equal to one-half of the sum of the voltages between each conductor
of a balanced interchange circuit and ground. In this example, for SerDes output,
Vcm_out =(V
TXn+V
TXn)/2 = (A + B) / 2, which is the arithmetic mean of the two complimentary
output voltages within a differential pair. In a system, the common mode voltage may often differ
from one component’ s output to the other s input. Sometimes, it may be even different between the
receiver input and driver output circuits within the same component. It is also referred as the DC
offset in some occasion.
Figure 15. Differential Voltage Definitions for Transmitter or Receiver
To illustrate these definitions using real values, consider the case of a current mode logic (CML)
transmitter that has a common mode voltage of 2.25 V and each of its outputs, TD and TD, has a swing
that goes between 2.5 V and 2.0 V. Using these values, the peak-to-peak voltage swing of each signal (TD
or TD) is 500 mV p-p, which is referred as the single-ended swing for each signal. In this example, since
the differential signaling environment is fully symmetrical, the transmitter output’s differential swing
(VOD) has the same amplitude as each signal’s single-ended swing. The differential output signal ranges
between 500 mV and –500 mV, in other words, VOD is 500 mV in one phase and –500 mV in the other
phase. The peak diff erential voltage (VDIFFp) is 500 mV. The peak-to-peak differential voltage (VDIFFp-p)
is 1000 mV p-p.
10.2 SerDes reference clocks
The SerDes reference clock inputs are applied to an internal PLL whose output creates the clock used by
the corresponding SerDes lanes. The SerDes reference clocks input is SD_REF_CLK and SD_REF_CLK
for PCI Express.
The following sections describe the SerDes reference clock requirements and some application
information.

10.2.1 SerDes reference clock receiver characteristics
Figure 16 shows a receiver reference diagram of the SerDes reference clocks.
The supply voltage requirements for XCOREVDD are specified in Table 1 and Table 2.
SerDes reference clock receiver reference circuit structure
The SD_REF_CLK and SD_REF_CLK are internally AC-coupled differential inputs as shown
in Figure 16. Each differential clock input (SD_REF_CLK or SD_REF_CLK) has a 50-
termination to XCOREVSS followed by on-chip AC-coupling.
The external reference clock driver must be able to drive this termination.
The SerDes reference clock input can be either differential or single-ended. Refer to the
Differential Mode and Single-ended Mode description below for further detailed requirements.
The maximum average current requirement that also determines the common mode voltage range
When the SerDes reference clock dif ferential inputs are DC coupled externally with the clock
driver chip, the maximum average current allowed for each input pin is 8mA. In this case, the
exact common mode input voltage is not critical as long as it is within the range allowed by the
maximum average current of 8 mA (refer to the following bullet for more detail), since the
input is AC-coupled on-chip.
This current limitation sets the maximum common mode input voltage to be less than 0.4 V
(0.4 V/50 = 8 mA) while the minimum common mode input level is 0.1 V above XCOREVSS.
For example, a clock with a 50/50 duty cycle can be produced by a clock driver with output
driven by its current source from 0mA to 16mA (0–0.8 V), such that each phase of the
differential input has a single-ended swing from 0 V to 800 mV with the common mode voltage
at 400mV.
If the device driving the SD_REF_CLK and SD_REF_CLK inputs cannot drive 50 to
XCOREVSS DC, or it exceeds the maximum input current limitations, then it must be
AC-coupled off-chip.
The input amplitude requirement
This requirement is described in detail in the following sections.

10.2.2 DC level requirement for SerDes reference clocks
The DC level requirement for the MPC8308 SerDes reference clock inputs is different depending on the
signaling mode used to connect the clock driver chip and SerDes reference clock inputs as described
below.
Differential Mode
The input amplitude of the differential clock must be between 400 mV and 1600 mV
differential peak-peak (or between 200 mV and 800 mV differential peak). In other words,
each signal wire of the differential pair must have a single-ended swing less than 800 mV and
greater than 200 mV. This requirement is the same for both external DC-coupled or
AC-coupled connection.
For external DC-coupled connection, as described in Section 10.2.1, “SerDes reference clock
receiver characteristics,” the maximum average current requirements sets the requirement for
average voltage (common mode voltage) to be between 100 mV and 400 mV. Figure 17 shows
the SerDes reference clock input requirement for DC-coupled connection scheme.
For external AC-coupled connection, there is no common mode voltage requirement for the
clock driver. Since the external AC-coupling capacitor blocks the DC level, the clock driver
and the SerDes reference clock receiver operate in different command mode voltages. The
SerDes reference clock receiver in this connection scheme has its common mode voltage set to
XCOREVSS. Each signal wire of the differential inputs is allowed to swing below and above
the common mode voltage (XCOREVSS). Figure 18 shows the SerDes reference clock input
requirement for AC-coupled connection scheme.
Single-ended Mode
The reference clock can also be single-ended. The SD_REF_CLK input amplitude
(single-ended swing) must be between 400 mV and 800 mV peak-peak (from Vmin to Vmax)
with SD_REF_CLK either left unconnected or tied to ground.
The SD_REF_CLK input average voltage must be between 200 and 400 mV. Figure 19 shows
the SerDes reference clock input requirement for single-ended signaling mode.
To meet the input amplitude requirement, the reference clock inputs might need to be DC or
AC-coupled externally. For the best noise performance, the reference of the clock could be DC
or AC-coupled into the unused phase (SD_REF_CLK) through the same source impedance as
the clock input (SD_REF_CLK) in use.

10.2.3 Interfacing with other differential signaling levels
With on-chip termination to XCOREVSS, the differential reference clocks inputs are high-speed current
steering logic (HCSL) compatible and DC coupled.
Many other low voltage differential type outputs like low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) can be
used but may need to be AC-coupled due to the limited common mode input range allowed (100–400 mV)
for DC-coupled connection.
LVPECL outputs can produce signal with too large amplitude and may need to be DC-biased at clock
driver output first, then followed with series attenuation resistor to reduce the amplitude, in addition to
AC-coupling.

NOTE
Figure 20Figure 23 are for conceptual reference only. Due to the fact that
clock driver chip's internal structure, output impedance, and termination
requirements are different between various clock driver chip manufacturers,
it is very much possible that the clock circuit reference designs provided by
clock driver chip vendor are different from what is shown below. They
might also vary from one vendor to the other. Therefore, Freescale
Semiconductor can neither provide the optimal clock driver reference
circuits, nor guarantee the correctness of the following clock driver
connection reference circuits. The system designer is recommended to
contact the selected clock driver chip vendor for the optimal reference
circuits with the MPC8308 SerDes reference clock receiver requirement
provided in this document.
This figure shows the SerDes reference clock connection reference circuits for HCSL type clock driver. It
assumes that the DC levels of the clock driver chip is compatible with MPC8308 SerDes reference clock
input’s DC requirement.

This figure shows the SerDes reference clock connection reference circuits for LVDS type clock driver.
Since LVDS clock drivers common mode voltage is higher than the MPC8308’s SerDes reference clock

output driver features 50-termination resistor. It also assumes that the LVDS transmitter establishes its

Figure 22 shows the SerDes reference clock connection reference circuits for LVPECL type clock driver.
Since LVPECL driver s DC levels (both common mode voltages and output swing) are incompatible with
MPC8308 SerDes reference clock input’s DC requirement, AC-coupling has to be used.
This figure assumes that the LVPECL clock driver s output impedance is 50 R1 is used to DC-bias the
L VPECL outputs prior to AC-coupling. Its value could be ranged from 140 to 240 depending on clock
driver vendors requirement. R2 is used together with the SerDes reference clock receivers 50-
termination resistor to attenuate the LVPECL output’s differential peak level such that it meets the
MPC8308’s SerDes reference clock’s differential input amplitude requirement (between 200 mV and
800 mV differential peak). For example, if the LVPECL output’s differential peak is 900 mV and the
desired SerDes reference clock input amplitude is selected as 600 mV, the attenuation factor is 0.67, which
requires R2 = 25 Please consult clock driver chip manufacturer to verify whether this connection
scheme is compatible with a particular clock driver chip.

10.2.4 AC requirements for SerDes reference clocks
The clock driver selected should provide a high quality reference clock with low phase noise and
cycle-to-cycle jitter . Phase noise less than 100 kHz can be tracked by the PLL and data recovery loops and
is less of a problem. Phase noise above 15 MHz is filtered by the PLL. The most problematic phase noise
occurs in the 1–15 MHz range. The source impedance of the clock driver should be 50 to match the
transmission line and reduce reflections which are a source of noise to the system.

signal must be monotonic through the measurement region for rise and fall time. The 400 mV measurement window is centered
on the differential zero crossing (Figure 24).
4. Matching applies to rising edge rate for SD_REF_CLK and falling edge rate for SD_REF_CLK. It is measured using a 200
mV window centered on the median cross point where SD_REF_CLK rising meets SD_REF_CLK falling. The median cross
point is used to calculate the voltage thresholds the oscilloscope is to use for the edge rate calculations. The Rise Edge Rate
of SD_REF_CLK should be compared to the Fall Edge Rate of SD_REF_CLK, the maximum allowed difference should not
exceed 20% of the slowest edge rate (See Figure 25).

11.4.2 Transmitter Compliance Eye Diagrams
The TX eye diagram in Figure 27 is specified using the passive compliance/test measurement load
(Figure 29) in place of any real PCI Express interconnect + RX component. There are two eye diagrams
that must be met for the transmitter . Both diagrams must be aligned in time using the jitter median to locate
the center of the eye diagram. The different eye diagrams differ in voltage depending on whether it is a
transition bit or a de-emphasized bit. The exact reduced voltage level of the de-emphasized bit is always
relative to the transition bit.
The eye diagram must be valid for any 250 consecutive UIs.
A recovered TX UI is calculated over 3500 consecutive unit intervals of sample data. The eye diagram is
created using all edges of the 250 consecutive UI in the center of the 3500 UI used for calculating the TX
UI.
NOTE
It is recommended that the recovered TX UI be calculated using all edges in
the 3500 consecutive UI interval with a fit algorithm using a minimization
merit function (that is, least squares and median deviation fits).

2. Specified at the measurement point into a timing and voltage compliance test load as shown in Figure 29 and measured over any

3. A TTX-EYE = 0.70 UI provides for a total sum of deterministic and random jitter budget of TTX-JITTER-MAX = 0.30 UI for the
transmitter collected over any 250 consecutive TX UIs. The TTX-EYE-MEDIAN-to-MAX-JITTER median is less than half of the total TX
jitter budget collected over any 250 consecutive TX UIs. It should be noted that the median is not the same as the mean. The
jitter median describes the point in time where the number of jitter points on either side is approximately equal as opposed to
the averaged time value.
4. The transmitter input impedance shall result in a differential return loss greater than or equal to 12 dB and a common mode return
loss greater than or equal to 6 dB over a frequency range of 50 MHz to 1.25 GHz. This input impedance requirement applies to
all valid input levels. The reference impedance for return loss measurements is 50 to ground for both the D+ and D– line (that
is, as measured by a vector network analyzer with 50- probes, see Figure 29). Note that the series capacitors, CTX, is optional
for the return loss measurement.

11.5 Receiver Compliance Eye Diagrams
The RX eye diagram in Figure 28 is specified using the passive compliance/test measurement load
(Figure 29) in place of any real PCI Express RX component. In general, the minimum receiver eye diagram
measured with the compliance/test measurement load (Figure 29) is lar ger than the minimum receiver eye
diagram measured over a range of systems at the input receiver of any real PCI Express component. The
degraded eye diagram at the input Receiver is due to traces internal to the package as well as silicon
parasitic characteristics which cause the real PCI Express component to vary in impedance from the
compliance/test measurement load. The input receiver eye diagram is implementation specific and is not
specified. RX component designer should provide additional margin to adequately compensate for the
degraded minimum Receiver eye diagram (shown in Figure 28) expected at the input receiver based on an
adequate combination of system simulations and the return loss measured looking into the RX package
and silicon. The RX eye diagram must be aligned in time using the jitter median to locate the center of the
eye diagram.
The eye diagram must be valid for any 250 consecutive UIs. A recovered TX UI is calculated over 3500
consecutive unit intervals of sample data. The eye diagram is created using all edges of the 250 consecutive
UI in the center of the 3500 UI used for calculating the TX UI.
Notes:
1. No test load is necessarily associated with this value.
2. Specified at the measurement point and measured over any 250 consecutive UIs. The test load in Figure 29 should be used as
the RX device when taking measurements (also refer to the receiver compliance eye diagram shown in Figure 28). If the clocks
to the RX and TX are not derived from the same reference clock, the TX UI recovered from 3500 consecutive UI must be used
as a reference for the eye diagram.
3. A TRX-EYE = 0.40 UI provides for a total sum of 0.60 UI deterministic and random jitter budget for the transmitter and interconnect
collected any 250 consecutive UIs. The TRX-EYE-MEDIAN-to-MAX-JITTER specification ensures a jitter distribution in which the
median and the maximum deviation from the median is less than half of the total. UI jitter budget collected over any 250
consecutive TX UIs. It should be noted that the median is not the same as the mean. The jitter median describes the point in
time where the number of jitter points on either side is approximately equal as opposed to the averaged time value. If the clocks
to the RX and TX are not derived from the same reference clock, the TX UI recovered from 3500 consecutive UI must be used
as the reference for the eye diagram.
4. The receiver input impedance shall result in a differential return loss greater than or equal to 15 dB with the D+ line biased to
300 mV and the D– line biased to –300 mV and a common mode return loss greater than or equal to 6 dB (no bias required)
over a frequency range of 50 MHz to 1.25 GHz. This input impedance requirement applies to all valid input levels. The reference
impedance for return loss measurements for is 50 to ground for both the D+ and D– line (that is, as measured by a vector
network analyzer with 50- probes, see Figure 29). Note that the series capacitors, CTX, is optional for the return loss
measurement.
5. Impedance during all LTSSM states. When transitioning from a fundamental reset to detect (the initial state of the LTSSM) there
is a 5 ms transition time before receiver termination values must be met on all unconfigured lanes of a port.
6. The RX DC common mode impedance that exists when no power is present or fundamental reset is asserted. This helps ensure
that the receiver detect circuit does not falsely assume a receiver is powered on when it is not. This term must be measured at
300 mV above the RX ground.
7. It is recommended that the recovered TX UI is calculated using all edges in the 3500 consecutive UI interval with a fit algorithm
using a minimization merit function. Least squares and median deviation fits have worked well with experimental and simulated
data.

NOTE
The allowance of the measurement point to be within 0.2 inches of the

Notes:
1. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(First two letters of functional block)(signal)(state) (reference)(state) for

timing (LB) for the input (I) to go invalid (X) with respect to the time the tLBK clock reference (K) goes high (H), in this case
for clock one(1).
2. All timings are in reference to falling edge of LCLK0 (for all outputs and for LGTA and LUPWAIT inputs) or rising edge of
LCLK0 (for all other inputs).
3. All signals are measured from NVDD/2 of the rising/falling edge of LCLK0 to 0.4 NVDD of the signal in question for 3.3-V
signaling levels.
4. Input timings are measured at the pin.
5. For purposes of active/float timing measurements, the Hi-Z or off state is defined to be when the total current delivered

This behavior is true for both full and high speed modes.

1. All outputs are measured from the midpoint voltage of the falling/rising edge of tTCLK to the midpoint of the signal in question.
The output timings are measured at the pins. All output timings assume a purely resistive 50-load (see Figure 40).
Time-of-flight delays must be added for trace lengths, vias, and connectors in the system.
2. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state) (reference)(state) for
inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tJTDVKH symbolizes JTAG device

went invalid (X) relative to the tI2C clock reference (K) going to the low (L) state or hold time. Also, tI2PVKH symbolizes I2C timing
(I2) for the time that the data with respect to the stop condition (P) reaching the valid state (V) relative to the tI2C clock reference

Notes:
1. Output specifications are measured from the 50% level of the rising edge of SPICLK to the 50% level of the signal.
Timings are measured at the pin.
2. The symbols used for timing specifications follow the pattern of t(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)(reference)(state)
for inputs and t(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tNIKHOX symbolizes the
internal timing (NI) for the time SPICLK clock reference (K) goes to the high state (H) until outputs (O) are invalid (X).

Clocking
21.1 System Clock Domains
The primary clock input (SYS_CLK_IN) frequency is multiplied up by the system phase-locked loop
(PLL) and the clock unit to create three major clock domains:
The coherent system bus clock (csb_clk)
The internal clock for the DDR controller (ddr_clk)
The internal clock for the local bus interface unit (lbc_clk)
The csb_clk frequency is derived as follows:
csb_clk = [SYS_CLK_IN] × SPMF
The csb_clk serves as the clock input to the e300 core. A second PLL inside the core multiplies up the
csb_clk frequency to create the internal clock for the core (core_clk). The system and core PLL multipliers
are selected by the SPMF and COREPLL fields in the reset configuration word low (RCWL), which is
loaded at power-on reset or by one of the hard-coded reset options. For more information, see the Reset
Clock Configuration chapter in the MPC8308 PowerQUICC II Pro Processor Reference Manual.
The DDR SDRAM memory controller will operate with a frequency equal to twice the frequency of
csb_clk. Note that ddr_clk is not the external memory bus frequency; ddr_clk passes through the DDR
clock divider (2) to create the differential DDR memory bus clock outputs (MCK and MCK ). However,
the data rate is the same frequency as ddr_clk.
The local bus memory controller will operate with a frequency equal to the frequency of csb_clk. Note that
lbc_clk is not the external local bus frequency; lbc_clk passes through the LBC clock divider to create the
external local bus clock outputs (LSYNC_OUT and LCLK0:2). The LBC clock divider ratio is controlled
by LCCR[CLKDIV]. For more information, see the Reset Clock Configuration chapter in the MPC8308
PowerQUICC II Pro Processor Reference Manual.
In addition, some of the internal units may be required to be shut off or operate at lower frequency than
the csb_clk frequency. These units have a default clock ratio that can be configured by a memory mapped
register after the device comes out of reset. Table 54 specifies which units have a configurable clock
frequency. For more information, see Reset Clock Configuration chapter in the MPC8308 PowerQUICC
II Pro Processor Reference Manual.
NOTE
The clock ratios of these units must be set before they are accessed.

coherent system bus clock (csb_clk). This table shows the expected frequency values for the CSB
frequency for select csb_clk to SYS_CLK_IN ratios.

where:

JA = junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (C/W)

estimation of thermal performance. As a general statement, the value obtained on a single layer board is

resistance.

Thermal
appropriate for a tightly packed printed-circuit board. The value obtained on the board with the internal
planes is usually appropriate if the board has low power dissipation and the components are well separated.
Test cases have demonstrated that errors of a factor of two (in the quantity TJ – TA) are possible.
22.2.2 Estimation of Junction Temperature with Junction-to-Board
Thermal Resistance
The thermal performance of a device cannot be adequately predicted from the junction-to-ambient thermal
resistance. The thermal performance of any component is strongly dependent on the power dissipation of
surrounding components. In addition, the ambient temperature varies widely within the application. For
many natural convection and especially closed box applications, the board temperature at the perimeter
(edge) of the package is approximately the same as the local air temperature near the device. Specifying
the local ambient conditions explicitly as the board temperature provides a more precise description of the
local ambient conditions that determine the temperature of the device.
At a known board temperature, the junction temperature is estimated using the following equation:
TJ = TB + (R
JB PD)
where:
TJ = junction temperature (C)
TB = board temperature at the package perimeter (C)
R
JB = junction-to-board thermal resistance (C/W) per JESD51–8
PD = power dissipation in the package (W)
When the heat loss from the package case to the air can be ignored, acceptable predictions of junction
temperature can be made. The application board should be similar to the thermal test condition: the
component is soldered to a board with internal planes.
22.2.3 Experimental Determination of Junction Temperature
To determine the junction temperature of the device in the application after prototypes are available, the
thermal characterization parameter (
JT) can be used to determine the junction temperature with a
measurement of the temperature at the top center of the package case using the following equation:
TJ = TT + (
JT PD)
where:
TJ = junction temperature (C)
TT = thermocouple temperature on top of package (C)
JT = thermal characterization parameter (C/W)
PD = power dissipation in the package (W)
The thermal characterization parameter is measured per JESD51-2 specificatio n using a 40 gauge type T
thermocouple epoxied to the top center of the package case. The thermocouple should be positioned so
that the thermocouple junction rests on the package. A small amount of epoxy is placed over the
thermocouple junction and over about 1 mm of wire extending from the junction. The thermocouple wire
is placed flat against the package case to avoid measurement errors caused by cooling effects of the
thermocouple wire.

System Design Information
23 System Design Information
This section provides electrical and thermal design recommendations for successful application of the
device
23.1 System Clocking
The device includes two PLLs.
1. The platform PLL generates the platform clock from the externally supplied SYS_CLK_IN input.
The frequency ratio between the platform and SYS_CLK_IN is selected using the platform PLL
ratio configuration bits as described in Section 21.2, “System PLL Configuration.”
2. The e300 core PLL generates the core clock as a slave to the platform clock. The frequency ratio
between the e300 core clock and the platform clock is selected using the e300 PLL ratio
configuration bits as described in Section 21.3, “Core PLL Configuration.”
23.2 PLL Power Supply Filtering
Each of the PLLs listed above is provided with power through independent power supply pins (AVDD1 for
core PLL and AVDD2 for the platform PLL). The AVDD level should always be equivalent to VDD, and
preferably these voltages are derived directly from VDD through a low pass filter scheme such as the
following.
There are a number of ways to reliably provide power to the PLLs, but the recommended solution is to
provide independent filter circuits as illustrated in Figure 54, one to each of the two AVDD pins. By
providing independent filters to each PLL the opportunity to cause noise injection from one PLL to the
other is reduced.
This circuit is intended to filter noise in the PLLs’ resonant frequency range from a 500 kHz to 10 MHz
range. It should be built with surface mount capacitors with minimum effective series inductance (ESL).
Consistent with the recommendations of Dr. Howard Johnson in High Speed Digital Design: A Handbook
of Black Magic (Prentice Hall, 1993), multiple small capacitors of equal value are recommended over a
single large value capacitor.
Each circuit should be placed as close as possible to the specific AVDD pin being supplied to minimize
noise coupled from nearby circuits. It should be possible to route directly from the capacitors to the AVDD
pin, which is on the periphery of package, without the inductance of vias.
This figure shows the PLL power supply filter circuits.

System Design Information
23.3 Decoupling Recommendations
Due to large address and data buses, and high operating frequencies, the device can generate transient
power surges and high frequency noise in its power supply , especially while driving lar ge capacitive loads.
This noise must be prevented from reaching other components in the MPC8308 system, and the MPC8308
itself requires a clean, tightly regulated source of power. Therefore, it is recommended that the system
designer place at least one decoupling capacitor at each VDD, NVDD, GVDD and LVDD pin of the device.
These decoupling capacitors should receive their power from separate VDD, NVDD, GVDD, LVDD, and
VSS power planes in the PCB, utilizing short traces to minimize inductance. Capacitors may be placed
directly under the device using a standard escape pattern. Others may surround the part.
These capacitors should have a value of 0.01 or 0.1 µF. Only ceramic SMT (surface mount technology)
capacitors should be used to minimize lead inductance, preferably 0402 or 0603 sizes.
In addition, it is recommended that there be several bulk storage capacitors distributed around the PCB,
feeding the VDD, NVDD, GVDD, LVDD planes, to enable quick recharging of the smaller chip capacitors.
These bulk capacitors should have a low ESR (equivalent series resistance) rating to ensure the quick
response time necessary. They should also be connected to the power and ground planes through two vias
to minimize inductance. Suggested bulk capacitors—100 to 330 µF (AVX TPS tantalum or Sanyo
OSCON). However , customers should work directly with their power regulator vendor for best values and
types of bulk capacitors.
23.4 Connection Recommendations
To ensure reliable operation, it is highly recommended to connect unused inputs to an appropriate signal
level. Unused active low inputs should be tied to NVDD, GVDD, LVDD as required. Unused active high
inputs should be connected to VSS. All NC (no-connect) signals must remain unconnected.
Power and ground connections must be made to all external VDD, NVDD, AVDD1, AVDD2, GVDD, LVDD
and VSS pins of the device.
23.5 Output Buffer DC Impedance
The device drivers are characterized over process, voltage, and temperature. For all buses, the driver is a
push-pull single-ended driver type (open drain for I2C, MDIO and HRESET)
To measure Z0 for the single-ended drivers, an external resistor is connected from the chip pad to NVDD
or VSS. Then, the value of each resistor is varied until the pad voltage is NVDD/2 (Figure 55). The output
impedance is the average of two components, the resistances of the pull-up and pull-down devices. When
data is held high, SW1 is closed (SW2 is open), and RP is trimmed until the voltage at the pad equals
NVDD/2. RP then becomes the resistance of the pull-up devices. RP and RN are designed to be close to each
other in value. Then, Z0 = (RP + RN)/2.
MPC8308 PowerQUICC II Pro Processor Hardware Specification, Rev. 4
Freescale Semiconductor 79
System Design Information
Figure 55. Driver Impedance Measurement
The value of this resistance and the strength of the drivers current source can be found by making two
measurements. First, the output voltage is measured while driving logic 1 without an exte rnal dif ferential
termination resistor . The measured voltage is V1 = Rsource Isource. Second, the output voltage is measured
while driving logic 1 with an external precision differential termination resistor of value Rterm. The
measured voltage is V2=(1/(1/R
1+1/R
2)) Isource. Solving for the output impedance gives Rsource =
Rterm (V1/V2 1). The drive current is then Isource =V
1/Rsource.
This table summarizes the signal impedance tar gets. The driver impedance are tar geted at minimum VDD,
nominal NVDD, 105C.
23.6 Configuration Pin Muxing
The device provides the user with power-on configuration options which can be set through the use of
external pull-up or pull-down resistors of 4.7 K on certain output pins (see customer visible
configuration pins). These pins are generally used as output only pins in normal operation.
While PORESET is asserted however, these pins are treated as inputs. The value presented on these pins
while PORESET is asserted, is latched when PORESET deasserts, at which time the input receiver is
disabled and the I/O circuit takes on its normal function. Careful board layout with stubless connections
to these pull-up/pull-down resistors coupled with the lar ge value of the pull-up/pull-down resistor should
minimize the disruption of signal quality or speed for output pins thus configured.

23.7 Pull-Up Resistor Requirements
The device requires high resistance pull-up resistors (10 k is recommended) on open drain type pins
including I2C, Ethernet management MDIO, HRESET and IPIC (integrated programmable interrupt
controller).
Correct operation of the JTAG interface requires configuration of a group of system control pins as
demonstrated in Figure 56. Care must be taken to ensure that these pins are maintained at a valid deasserted
state under normal operating conditions because most have asynchronous behavior and spurious assertion,
which give unpredictable results.
