Features
high-bandwidth interface. The MPC7447 is identical to the MPC7457 except that it does not support the
L3 cache interface.
Figure 1 shows a block diagram of the MPC7457. The core is a high-performance superscalar design
supporting a double-precision floating-point unit and a SIMD multimedia unit.
The memory storage subsystem supports the MPX bus protocol and a subset of the 60x bus protocol to
main memory and other system resources. The L3 interface supports 1, 2, or 4 Mbytes of external SRAM
for L3 cache and/or private memory data. For systems implementing 4 Mbytes of SRAM, a maximum of
2 Mbytes may be used as cache; the remaining 2 Mbytes must be private memory.
Note that the MPC7457 is a footprint-compatible, drop-in replacement in a MPC7455 application if the
core power supply is 1.3 V.
2Features
This section summarizes features of the MPC7457 implementation of the PowerPC architecture.
Major features of the MPC7457 are as follows:
High-performance, superscalar microprocessor
As many as four instructions can be fetched from the instruction cache at a time.
As many as three instructions can be dispatched to the issue queues at a time.
As many as 12 instructions can be in the instruction queue (IQ).
As many as 16 instructions can be at some stage of execution simultaneously.
Single-cycle execution for most instructions
One instruction per clock cycle throughput for most instructions
Seven-stage pipeline control
Eleven independent execution units and three register files
Branch processing unit (BPU) features static and dynamic branch prediction
128-entry (32-set, four-way set associative) branch target instruction cache (BTIC), a cache
of branch instructions that have been encountered in branch/loop code sequences. If a target
instruction is in the BTIC, it is fetched into the instruction queue a cycle sooner than it can
be made available from the instruction cache. Typically, a f etch that hits the BTIC pro vides
the first four instructions in the target stream.
2048-entry branch history (BHT) with 2 bits per entry for 4 levels of prediction—not-taken,
strongly not-taken, taken, and strongly taken
Up to three outstanding speculative branches
Branch instructions that do not update the count register (CTR) or link register (LR) are
often removed from the instruction stream.
Eight-entry link register stack to predict the target address of Branch Conditional to Link
Register (bclr) instructions

Power and thermal management
1.3-V processor core
The following three power-saving modes are available to the system:
Nap—Instruction fetching is halted. Only those clocks for the time base, decrementer, and
JTAG logic remain running. The part goes into the doze state to snoop memory operations
on the bus and back to nap using a QREQ/QACK processor-system handshake protocol.
Sleep—Power consumption is further reduced by disabling bus snooping, leaving only the
PLL in a locked and running state. All internal functional units are disabled.
Deep sleep—When the part is in the sleep state, the system can disable the PLL. The system
can then disable the SYSCLK source for greater system power savings. Power-on reset
procedures for restarting and relocking the PLL must be followed on exiting the deep sleep
state.
Thermal management facility provides software-controllable thermal management. Thermal
management is performed through the use of three supervisor-level registers and an
MPC7457-specific thermal management exception.
Instruction cache throttling provides control of instruction fetching to limit power consumption
Performance monitor can be used to help debug system designs and improve software efficiency
In-system testability and debugging features through JTAG boundary-scan capability
Testability

Table 1 compares the key features of the MPC7457 with the key features of the earlier MPC7455,
MPC7445, MPC7450, MPC7451, and MPC7441. To achieve a higher frequency, the number of logic
levels per cycle is reduced. Also, to achieve this higher frequency, the pipeline of the MPC7457 is
extended (compared to the MPC7400), while maintaining the same level of performance as measured by
the number of instructions executed per cycle (IPC).

Electrical and Thermal Characteristics
Figure 2. Overshoot/Undershoot Voltage
The MPC7457 provides several I/O voltages to support both compatibility with existing systems and
migration to future systems. The MPC7457 core voltage must always be provided at nominal 1.3 V (see
Table 4 for actual recommended core voltage). Voltage to the L3 I/Os and processor interface I/Os are
provided through separate sets of supply pins and may be provided at the voltages shown in Table 3. The
input voltage threshold for each bus is selected by sampling the state of the voltage select pins at the
negation of the signal HRESET . The output voltage will swing from GND to the maximum voltage applied
to the OVDD or GVDD power pins.

5.2 AC Electrical Characteristics
This section provides the AC electrical characteristics for the MPC7457. After fabrication, functional parts
are sorted by maximum processor core frequency as shown in Section 1.5.2.1, “Clock AC Specifications,”
and tested for conformance to the AC specifications for that frequency. The processor core frequency is
determined by the bus (SYSCLK) frequency and the settings of the PLL_CFG[0:4] signals. Parts are sold
by maximum processor core frequency; see Section 1.11, “Ordering Information.”
5.2.1 Clock AC Specifications
Table 8 provides the clock AC timing specifications as defined in Figure 6 and represents the tested
operating frequencies of the devices. The maximum system bus frequency, fSYSCLK, given in Table 8 is
considered a practical maximum in a typical single-processor system. The actual maximum SYSCLK
frequency for any application of the MPC7457 will be a function of the AC timings of the MPC7457, the
AC timings for the system controller, bus loading, printed-circuit board topology, trace lengths, and so
forth, and may be less than the value given in Table 8. For information regarding the use of spread
spectrum clock generators, see Section 9.1.3, “System Bus Clock (SYSCLK) and Spread Spectrum
Sources.” PLL configuration and bus-to-core multiplier information is found in Section 9.1.1, “Core
Clocks and PLL Configuration.”

Notes:
1. Caution: The SYSCLK frequency and PLL_CFG[0:4] settings must be chosen such that the resulting SYSCLK (bus)
frequency, CPU (core) frequency, and PLL (VCO) frequency do not exceed their respective maximum or minimum operating
frequencies. Refer to the PLL_CFG[0:4] signal description in Section 1.9.1, “PLL Configuration,” for valid PLL_CFG[0:4]
settings.

4. Timing is guaranteed by design and characterization.
5. Guaranteed by design.
6. The SYSCLK driver’s closed loop jitter bandwidth should be less than 1.5 MHz at –3 dB.
7. Relock timing is guaranteed by design and characterization. PLL-relock time is the maximum amount of time required for PLL
lock after a stable VDD and SYSCLK are reached during the power-on reset sequence. This specification also applies when
the PLL has been disabled and subsequently re-enabled during sleep mode. Also note that HRESET must be held asserted
for a minimum of 255 bus clocks after the PLL-relock time during the power-on reset sequence.

Notes:
1. All input specifications are measured from the midpoint of the signal in question to the midpoint of the rising edge of the input
SYSCLK. All output specifications are measured from the midpoint of the rising edge of SYSCLK to the midpoint of the signal
in question. All output timings assume a purely resistive 50-Ω load (see Figure 4). Input and output timings are measured at
the pin; time-of-flight delays must be added for trace lengths, vias, and connectors in the system.
2. The symbology used for timing specifications herein follows the pattern of t(signal)(state)(reference)(state) for inputs and
t(reference)(state)(signal)(state) for outputs. For example, tIVKH symbolizes the time input signals (I) reach the valid state (V)
relative to the SYSCLK reference (K) going to the high (H) state or input setup time. And tKHOV symbolizes the time from
SYSCLK(K) going high (H) until outputs (O) are valid (V) or output valid time. Input hold time can be read as the time that
the input signal (I) went invalid (X) with respect to the rising clock edge (KH) (note the position of the reference and its state
for inputs) and output hold time can be read as the time from the rising edge (KH) until the output went invalid (OX).
3. tsysclk is the period of the external clock (SYSCLK) in ns. The numbers given in the table must be multiplied by the period of
SYSCLK to compute the actual time duration (in ns) of the parameter in question.
4. According to the bus protocol, TS is driven only by the currently active bus master. It is asserted low then precharged high
before returning to high impedance as shown in Figure 6. The nominal precharge width for TS is 0.5 × tSYSCLK, that is, less
than the minimum tSYSCLK period, to ensure that another master asserting TS on the following clock will not contend with
the precharge. Output valid and output hold timing is tested for the signal asserted. Output valid time is tested for
precharge.The high-impedance behavior is guaranteed by design.
5. Guaranteed by design and not tested.
6. According to the bus protocol, ARTRY can be driven by multiple bus masters through the clock period immediately following
AACK. Bus contention is not an issue because any master asserting ARTRY will be driving it low. Any master asserting it
low in the first clock following AACK will then go to high impedance for one clock before precharging it high during the second
cycle after the assertion of AACK. The nominal precharge width for ARTRY is 1.0 tSYSCLK; that is, it should be high
impedance as shown in Figure 6 before the first opportunity for another master to assert ARTRY. Output valid and output
hold timing is tested for the signal asserted.The high-impedance behavior is guaranteed by design.
7. According to the MPX bus protocol, SHD0 and SHD1 can be driven by multiple bus masters beginning the cycle of TS. Timing
is the same as ARTRY, that is, the signal is high impedance for a fraction of a cycle, then negated for up to an entire cycle
(crossing a bus cycle boundary) before being three-stated again. The nominal precharge width for SHD0 and SHD1 is 1.0
tSYSCLK. The edges of the precharge vary depending on the programmed ratio of core to bus (PLL configurations).
8. BMODE[0:1] and BVSEL are mode select inputs and are sampled before and after HRESET negation. These parameters
represent the input setup and hold times for each sample. These values are guaranteed by design and not tested. These
inputs must remain stable after the second sample. See Figure 5 for sample timing.

5.2.3 L3 Clock AC Specifications
The L3_CLK frequency is programmed by the L3 configuration register core-to-L3 divisor ratio. See
Table 18 for example core and L3 frequencies at various divisors. Table 10 provides the potential range of
L3_CLK output AC timing specifications as defined in Figure 7.
The maximum L3_CLK frequency is the core frequency divided by two. Given the high core frequencies
available in the MPC7457, however , most SRAM designs will be not be able to operate in this mode using
current technology and, as a result, will select a greater core-to-L3 divisor to provide a longer L3_CLK
period for read and write access to the L3 SRAMs. Therefore, the typical L3_CLK frequency shown in
Table 10 is considered to be the practical maximum in a typical system. The maximum L3_CLK frequency
for any application of the MPC7457 will be a function of the AC timings of the MPC7457, the AC timings
for the SRAM, bus loading, and printed-circuit board trace length, and may be greater or less than the value
given in Table 10. Note that SYSCLK input jitter and L3_CLK[0:1] output jitter are already
comprehended in the L3 bus AC timing specifications and do not need to be separately accounted for in
an L3 AC timing analysis. Clock skews, where applicable, do need to be accounted for in an AC timing
analysis.
Freescale is similarly limited by system constraints and cannot perform tests of the L3 interface on a
socketed part on a functional tester at the maximum frequencies of Table 10. Therefore, functional
operation and AC timing information are tested at core-to-L3 divisors which result in L3 frequencies at
250 MHz or lower.

Notes:
1. The maximum L3 clock frequency (and minimum L3 clock period) will be system dependent. See Section 5.2.3, “L3 Clock
AC Specifications,” for an explanation that this maximum frequency is not functionally tested at speed by Freescale. The
minimum L3 clock frequency and period are fSYSCLK and tSYSCLK, respectively.
2. The nominal duty cycle of the L3 output clocks is 50% measured at midpoint voltage.
3. Maximum possible skew between L3_CLK0 and L3_CLK1. This parameter is critical to the address and control signals which
are common to both SRAM chips in the L3.
4. Maximum possible skew between L3_CLK0 and L3_ECHO_CLK1 or between L3_CLK1 and L3_ECHO_CLK3 for PB2 or
Late Write SRAM. This parameter is critical to the read data signals because the processor uses the feedback loop to latch
data driven from the SRAM, each of which drives data based on L3_CLK0 or L3_CLK1.
5. Guaranteed by design and not tested. The input jitter on SYSCLK affects L3 output clocks and the L3 address, data, and
control signals equally and, therefore, is already comprehended in the AC timing and does not have to be considered in the
L3 timing analysis. The clock-to-clock jitter shown here is uncertainty in the internal clock period caused by supply voltage
noise or thermal effects. This is also comprehended in the AC timing specifications and need not be considered in the L3
timing analysis.
6. L3 I/O voltage mode must be configured by L3VSEL as described in Ta b l e 3 , and voltage supplied at GVDD must match
mode selected as specified in Ta bl e 4 . See Tab le 2 3 for revision level information and part marking.

5.2.4 L3 Bus AC Specifications
The MPC7457 L3 interface supports three different types of SRAM: source-synchronous, double data rate
(DDR) MSUG2 SRAM, Late Write SRAMs, and pipeline burst (PB2) SRAMs. Each requires a different
protocol on the L3 interface and a different routing of the L3 clock signals. The type of SRAM is
programmed in L3CR[22:23] and the MPC7457 then follows the appropriate protocol for that type. The
designer must connect and route the L3 signals appropriately for each type of SRAM. Following are some
observations about the L3 interface.
The routing for the point-to-point signals (L3_CLK[0:1], L3DATA[0:63], L3DP[0:7], and
L3_ECHO_CLK[0:3]) to a particular SRAM must be delay matched.
For 1-Mbyte of SRAM, use L3_ADDR[16:0] (L3_ADDR[0] is LSB)
For 2-Mbyte of SRAM, use L3_ADDR[17:0] (L3_ADDR[0] is LSB)
For 4-Mbyte of SRAM, use L3_ADDR[18:0] (L3_ADDR[0] is LSB)
No pull-up resistors are required for the L3 interface
For high-speed operations, L3 interface address and control signals should be a ‘T’ with minimal
stubs to the two loads; data and clock signals should be point-to-point to their single load. Figure 8
shows the AC test load for the L3 interface.
Figure 8. AC Test Load for the L3 Interface
In general, if routing is short, delay-matched, and designed for incident wave reception and minimal
reflection, there is a high probability that the AC timing of the MPC7457 L3 interface will meet the
maximum frequency operation of appropriately chosen SRAMs. This is despite the pessimistic,
guard-banded AC specifications (see Table 12, Table 13, and Table 14), the limitations of functional
testers described in Section 5.2.3, “L3 Clock AC Specifications,” and the uncertainty of clocks and signals
which inevitably make worst-case critical path timing analysis pessimistic.
More specifically, certain signals within groups should be delay-matched with others in the same group
while intergroup routing is less critical. Only the address and control signals are common to both SRAMs
and additional timing margin is available for these signals. The double-clocked data signals are grouped
with individual clocks as shown in Figure 9 or Figure 11, depending on the type of SRAM. For example,
for the MSUG2 DDR SRAM (see Figure 9); L3DATA[0:31], L3DP[0:3], and L3_CLK[0] form a closely
coupled group of outputs from the MPC7457; while L3DATA[0:15], L3DP[0:1], and L3_ECHO_CLK[0]
form a closely coupled group of inputs.
The MPC7450 RISC Microprocessor Family Users Manual refers to logical settings called ‘sample
points’ used in the synchronization of reads from the receive FIFO. The computation of the correct value
for this setting is system-dependent and is described in the MPC7450 RISC Micr oprocessor Family Users
Manual. Three specifications are used in this calculation and are given in Table 11. It is essential that all
three specifications are included in the calculations to determine the sample points, as incorrect settings

5.2.4.1 Effects of L3OHCR Settings on L3 Bus AC Specifications
The AC timing of the L3 interface can be adjusted using the L3 Output Hold Control Register (L3OCHR).
Each field controls the timing for a group of signals. The AC timing specifications presented herein
represent the AC timing when the register contains the default value of 0x0000_0000. Incrementing a field
delays the associated signals, increasing the output valid time and hold time of the af fected signals. In the
special case of delaying an L3_CLK signal, the net effect is to decrease the output valid and output hold
times of all signals being latched relative to that clock signal. The amount of delay added is summarized
in Table 12. Note that these settings affect output timing parameters only and do not impact input timing
parameters of the L3 bus in any way.
Table 11. Sample Points Calculation Parameters
Parameter Symbol Max Unit Notes
Delay from processor clock to internal_L3_CLK tAC 3/4 tL3_CLK 1
Delay from internal_L3_CLK to L3_CLK[n] output pins tCO 3ns2
Delay from L3_ECHO_CLK[n] to receive latch tECI 3ns3
Notes:
1. This specification describes a logical offset between the internal clock edge used to launch the L3 address and control signals
(this clock edge is phase-aligned with the processor clock edge) and the internal clock edge used to launch the L3_CLK[n]
signals. With proper board routing, this offset ensures that the L3_CLK[n] edge will arrive at the SRAM within a valid address
window and provide adequate setup and hold time. This offset is reflected in the L3 bus interface AC timing specifications,
but must also be separately accounted for in the calculation of sample points and, thus, is specified here.
2. This specification is the delay from a rising or falling edge on the internal_L3_CLK signal to the corresponding rising or falling
edge at the L3CLK[n] pins.
3. This specification is the delay from a rising or falling edge of L3_ECHO_CLK[n] to data valid and ready to be sampled from
the FIFO.

5.2.4.2 L3 Bus AC Specifications for DDR MSUG2 SRAMs
When using DDR MSUG2 SRAMs at the L3 interface, the parts should be connected as shown in Figure 9.
Outputs from the MPC7457 are actually launched on the edges of an internal clock phase-aligned to
SYSCLK (adjusted for core and L3 frequency divisors). L3_CLK0 and L3_CLK1 are this internal clock
output with 90° phase delay, so outputs are shown synchronous to L3_CLK0 and L3_CLK1. Output valid
times are typically negative when referenced to L3_CLKn because the data is launched one-quarter period
before L3_CLKn to provide adequate setup time at the SRAM after the delay-matched address, control,
data, and L3_CLKn signals have propagated across the printed-wiring board.
Inputs to the MPC7457 are source-synchronous with the CQ clock generated by the DDR MSUG2
SRAMs. These CQ clocks are received on the L3_ECHO_CLKn inputs of the MPC7457. An internal
circuit delays the incoming L3_ECHO_CLKn signal such that it is positioned within the valid data

which comprise the receive FIFO. This clock is asynchronous to all other processor clocks. This latched
data is subsequently read out of the FIFO synchronously to the processor clock. The time between writing
and reading the data is set by the using the sample point settings defined in the L3CR register.

Notes:
1. Rise and fall times for the L3_CLK output are measured from 20% to 80% of GVDD.
2. For DDR, all input specifications are measured from the midpoint of the signal in question to the midpoint voltage of the rising
or falling edge of the input L3_ECHO_CLKn (see Figure 10). Input timings are measured at the pins.
3. For DDR, the input data will typically follow the edge of L3_ECHO_CLKn as shown in Figure 10. For consistency with other
input setup time specifications, this will be treated as negative input setup time.
4. tL3_CLK/4 is one-fourth the period of L3_CLKn. This parameter indicates that the MPC7457 can latch an input signal that is
valid for only a short time before and a short time after the midpoint between the rising and falling (or falling and rising) edges
of L3_ECHO_CLKn at any frequency.
5. All output specifications are measured from the midpoint voltage of the rising (or for DDR write data, also the falling) edge of
L3_CLK to the midpoint of the signal in question. The output timings are measured at the pins. All output timings assume a
purely resistive 50-Ω load (see Figure 8).
6. For DDR, the output data will typically lead the edge of L3_CLKn as shown in Figure 10. For consistency with other output
valid time specifications, this will be treated as negative output valid time.
7. tL3_CLK/4 is one-fourth the period of L3_CLKn. This parameter indicates that the specified output signal is actually launched
by an internal clock delayed in phase by 90°. Therefore, there is a frequency component to the output valid and output hold
times such that the specified output signal will be valid for approximately one L3_CLK period starting three-fourths of a clock
before the edge on which the SRAM will sample it and ending one-fourth of a clock period after the edge it will be sampled.
8. Assumes default value of L3OHCR. See Section 5.2.4.1, “Effects of L3OHCR Settings on L3 Bus AC Specifications,” for more
information.
9. L3 I/O voltage mode must be configured by L3VSEL as described in Ta b l e 3 , and voltage supplied at GVDD must match mode
selected as specified in Ta b l e 4 . See Ta bl e 2 3 for revision level information and part marking.

5.2.4.3 L3 Bus AC Specifications for PB2 and Late Write SRAMs
When using PB2 or Late Write SRAMs at the L3 interface, the parts should be connected as shown in
Figure 11. These SRAMs are synchronous to the MPC7457; one L3_CLKn signal is output to each SRAM
to latch address, control, and write data. Read data is launched by the SRAM synchronous to the delayed
L3_CLKn signal it received. The MPC7457 needs a copy of that delayed clock which launched the SRAM
read data to know when the returning data will be valid. Therefore, L3_ECHO_CLK1 and
L3_ECHO_CLK3 must be routed halfway to the SRAMs and returned to the MPC7457 inputs
L3_ECHO_CLK0 and L3_ECHO_CLK2, respectively. Thus, L3_ECHO_CLK0 and L3_ECHO_CLK2
are phase-aligned with the input clock received at the SRAMs. The MPC7457 will latch the incoming data
on the rising edge of L3_ECHO_CLK0 and L3_ECHO_CLK2.

Notes:
1. OVDD supplies power to the processor bus, JTAG, and all control signals; and VDD supplies power to the processor core and
the PLL (after filtering to become AVDD). To program the I/O voltage, connect BVSEL to either GND (selects 1.8 V) or to
HRESET (selects 2.5 V). If used, the pull-down resistor should be less than 250 Ω. For actual recommended value of Vin or
supply voltages see Ta b l e 4 .
2. Unused address pins must be pulled down to GND.
3. These pins require weak pull-up resistors (for example, 4.7 kΩ) to maintain the control signals in the negated state after they
have been actively negated and released by the MPC7447 and other bus masters.
4. This signal selects between MPX bus mode (asserted) and 60x bus mode (negated) and will be sampled at HRESET going
high.
5. This signal must be negated during reset, by pull up to OVDD or negation by ¬HRESET (inverse of HRESET), to ensure
proper operation.
6. Internal pull up on die.
7. Ignored in 60x bus mode.
8. These signals must be pulled down to GND if unused, or if the MPC7447 is in 60x bus mode.
9. These input signals are for factory use only and must be pulled down to GND for normal machine operation.
10.This test signal is recommended to be tied to HRESET; however, other configurations will not adversely affect performance.
11.These signals are for factory use only and must be left unconnected for normal machine operation.
12.These input signals are for factory use only and must be pulled up to OVDD for normal machine operation.
13.This pin can externally cause a performance monitor event. Counting of the event is enabled via software.
14.This signal must be asserted during reset, by pull down to GND or assertion by HRESET
, to ensure proper operation.

This section provides system and thermal design recommendations for successful application of the
MPC7457.
9.1 Clocks
The following sections provide more detailed information regarding the clocking of the MPC7457.
9.1.1 Core Clocks and PLL Configuration
The MPC7457 PLL is configured by the PLL_CFG[0:4] signals. For a given SYSCLK (bus) frequency,
the PLL configuration signals set the internal CPU and VCO frequency of operation. The PLL
configuration for the MPC7457 is shown in Table 18 for a set of example frequencies. In this example,
shaded cells represent settings that, for a given SYSCLK frequency , result in core and/or VCO frequencies
that do not comply with the 1-GHz column in Table 8. Note that these configurations were different in
some earlier MPC7450-family devices and care should be taken when upgrading to the MPC7457 to verify
the correct PLL settings for an application.

9.1.2 L3 Clocks
The MPC7457 generates the clock for the external L3 synchronous data SRAMs by dividing the core clock
frequency of the MPC7457. The core-to-L3 frequency divisor for the L3 PLL is selected through the
L3_CLK bits of the L3CR register. Generally, the divisor must be chosen according to the frequency
supported by the external RAMs, the frequency of the MPC7457 core, and timing analysis of the circuit
board routing. Table 19 shows various example L3 clock frequencies that can be obtained for a given set
of core frequencies.
11110 PLL off PLL off, no core clocking occurs
Notes:
1. PLL_CFG[0:4] settings not listed are reserved.
2. The sample bus-to-core frequencies shown are for reference only. Some PLL configurations may select bus, core, or VCO
frequencies which are not useful, not supported, or not tested for by the MPC7455; see Section 5.2.1, “Clock AC
Specifications, for valid SYSCLK, core, and VCO frequencies.
3. In PLL-bypass mode, the SYSCLK input signal clocks the internal processor directly and the PLL is disabled. However,
the bus interface unit requires a 2x clock to function. Therefore, an additional signal, EXT_QUAL, must be driven at
one-half the frequency of SYSCLK and offset in phase to meet the required input setup tIVKH and hold time tIXKH (see
Ta b l e 9 ). The result is that the processor bus frequency is one-half SYSCLK while the internal processor is clocked at
SYSCLK frequency. This mode is intended for factory use and emulator tool use only.
Note: The AC timing specifications given in this document do not apply in PLL-bypass mode.
4. In PLL-off mode, no clocking occurs inside the MPC7455 regardless of the SYSCLK input.

9.1.3 System Bus Clock (SYSCLK) and Spread Spectrum Sources
Spread spectrum clock sources are an increasingly popular way to control electromagnetic interference
emissions (EMI) by spreading the emitted noise to a wider spectrum and reducing the peak noise
magnitude in order to meet industry and government requirements. These clock sources intentionally add
long-term jitter in order to diffuse the EMI spectral content. The jitter specification given in Table 8
considers short-term (cycle-to-cycle) jitter only and the clock generators cycle-to-cycle output jitter
should meet the MPC7457 input cycle-to-cycle jitter requirement. Frequency modulation and spread are
separate concerns, and the MPC7457 is compatible with spread spectrum sources if the recommendations
listed in Table 20 are observed.
It is imperative to note that the processor s minimum and maximum SYSCLK, core, and VCO frequencies
must not be exceeded regardless of the type of clock source. Therefore, systems in which the processor is
operated at its maximum rated core or bus frequency should avoid violating the stated limits by using
down-spreading only.

9.2 PLL Power Supply Filtering
The AVDD power signal is provided on the MPC7457 to provide power to the clock generation PLL. To
ensure stability of the internal clock, the power supplied to the AVDD input signal should be filtered of any
noise in the 500 kHz to 10 MHz resonant frequency range of the PLL. A circuit similar to the one shown
in Figure 24 using surface mount capacitors with minimum effective series inductance (ESL) is
recommended.
The circuit should be placed as close as possible to the AVDD pin to minimize noise coupled from nearby
circuits. It is often possible to route directly from the capacitors to the AVDD pin, which is on the periphery
of the 360 CBGA footprint and very close to the periphery of the 483 CBGA footprint, without the
inductance of vias.
Figure 24. PLL Power Supply Filter Circuit
NOTE
All production 7447 and 7457 Rev. B devices require a 400 Ω resistor
instead of the 10 Ω resistor shown above. All production 7457 Rev. C
devices require a 10 Ω resistor. For more information, see the MPC7450
Family Chip Errata for the MPC7457 and MPC7447.
9.3 Decoupling Recommendations
Due to the MPC7457 dynamic power management feature, large address and data buses, and high
operating frequencies, the MPC7457 can generate transient power surges and high frequency noise in its
power supply , especially while driving large capacitive loads. This noise must be prevented from reaching
other components in the MPC7457 system, and the MPC7457 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, OVDD, and GVDD pin of the MPC7457. It is also recommended that these
decoupling capacitors receive their power from separate VDD, OVDD/GVDD, and GND power planes in
the PCB, utilizing short traces to minimize inductance. If compromises must be made due to board
constraints, VDD pins should receive the highest priority for decoupling.
These capacitors should have a value of 0.01 or 0.1 µF. Only ceramic surface mount technology (SMT)
capacitors should be used to minimize lead inductance, preferably 0508 or 0603 orientations where
connections are made along the length of the part. Consistent with the recommendations of Dr. Howard
Johnson in High Speed Digital Design: A Handbook of Black Magic (Prentice Hall, 1993) and contrary to
previous recommendations for decoupling Freescale microprocessors, multiple small capacitors of equal
value are recommended over using multiple values of capacitance.
In addition, it is recommended that there be several bulk storage capacitors distributed around the PCB,
feeding the VDD, GVDD, and OVDD planes, to enable quick recharging of the smaller chip capacitors.
These bulk capacitors should have a low equivalent series resistance (ESR) 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: 100–330 µF (AVX TPS tantalum or Sanyo OSCON).
9.4 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 OVDD. Unused active high inputs should be connected
to GND. All NC (no-connect) signals must remain unconnected.
Power and ground connections must be made to all external VDD, OVDD, GVDD, and GND pins in the
MPC7457. If the L3 interface is not used, GVDD should be connected to the OVDD power plane, and
L3VSEL should be connected to BVSEL; the remainder of the L3 interface may be left unterminated.
9.5 Output Buffer DC Impedance
The MPC7457 processor bus and L3 I/O drivers are characterized over process, voltage, and temperature.
To measure Z0, an external resistor is connected from the chip pad to OVDD or GND. Then, the value of
each resistor is varied until the pad voltage is OVDD/2 (see Figure 25).
The output impedance is the average of two components, the resistances of the pull-up and pull-down
devices. When data is held low, SW2 is closed (SW1 is open), and RN is trimmed until the voltage at the
pad equals OVDD/2. RN then becomes the resistance of the 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 OVDD/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.

Table 21 summarizes the signal impedance results. The impedance increases with junction temperature
and is relatively unaffected by bus voltage.

System Design Information
9.6 Pull-Up/Pull-Down Resistor Requirements
The MPC7457 requires high-resistive (weak: 4.7-kΩ) pull-up resistors on several control pins of the bus
interface to maintain the control signals in the negated state after they have been actively negated and
released by the MPC7457 or other bus masters. These pins are: TS, ARTRY, SHDO, and SHD1.
Some pins designated as being for factory test must be pulled up to OVDD or down to GND to ensure
proper device operation. For the MPC7447, 360 BGA, the pins that must be pulled up to OVDD are:
LSSD_MODE and TEST[0:3]; the pins that must be pulled down to GND are: L1_TSTCLK and TEST[4].
For the MPC7457, 483 BGA, the pins that must be pulled up to OVDD are: LSSD_MODE and TEST[0:5];
the pins that must be pulled down are: L1_TSTCLK and TEST[6]. The CKSTP_IN signal should likewise
be pulled up through a pull-up resistor (weak or stronger: 4.7–1 kΩ) to prevent erroneous assertions of this
signal.
In addition, the MPC7457 has one open-drain style output that requires a pull-up resistor (weak or
stronger: 4.7–1 kΩ) if it is used by the system. This pin is CKSTP_OUT.
If pull-down resistors are used to configure BVSEL or L3VSEL, the resistors should be less than 250 Ω
(see Table 16). Because PLL_CFG[0:4] must remain stable during normal operation, strong pull-up and
pull-down resistors (1 kΩ or less) are recommended to configure these signals in order to protect against
erroneous switching due to ground bounce, power supply noise or noise coupling.
During inactive periods on the bus, the address and transfer attributes may not be driven by any master and
may , therefore, float in the high-impedance state for relatively long periods of time. Because the MPC7457
must continually monitor these signals for snooping, this float condition may cause excessive power draw
by the input receivers on the MPC7457 or by other receivers in the system. These signals can be pulled up
through weak (10-kΩ) pull-up resistors by the system, address bus driven mode enabled (see the MPC7450
RISC Microprocessor Family Users’ Manual for more information about this mode), or they may be
otherwise driven by the system during inactive periods of the bus to avoid this additional power draw.
Preliminary studies have shown the additional power draw by the MPC7457 input receivers to be
negligible and, in any event, none of these measures are necessary for proper device operation. The
snooped address and transfer attribute inputs are: A[0:35], AP[0:4], TT[0:4], CI, WT, and GBL.
If extended addressing is not used, A[0:3] are unused and must be pulled low to GND through weak
pull-down resistors. If the MPC7457 is in 60x bus mode, DTI[0:3] must be pulled low to GND through
weak pull-down resistors.
The data bus input receivers are normally turned off wh en no read operation is in progress and, therefore,
do not require pull-up resistors on the bus. Other data bus receivers in the system, however, may require
pull-ups, or that those signals be otherwise driven by the system during inactive periods by the system. The
data bus signals are: D[0:63] and DP[0:7].

System Design Information
If address or data parity is not used by the system, and the re spective parity checking is disabled through
HID0, the input receivers for those pins are disabled, and those pins do not require pull-up resistors and
should be left unconnected by the system. If all parity generation is disabled through HID0, all parity
checking should also be disabled through HID0, and all parity pins may be left unconnected by the system.
The L3 interface does not normally require pull-up resistors. Unused L3_ADDR signals are driven low
when the SRAM is configured to be less than 1 M in size via L3CR. For example, L3_ADD[18] will be
driven low if the SRAM size is configured to be 2 M; likewise, L3_ADDR[18:17] will be driven low if
the SRAM size is configured to be 1 M.
9.7 JTAG Configuration Signals
Boundary-scan testing is enabled through the JTAG interface signals. The TRST signal is optional in the
IEEE 1149.1 specification, but is provided on all processors that implement the PowerPC architecture.
While it is possible to force the TAP controller to the reset state using only the TCK and TMS signals, more
reliable power-on reset performance will be obtained if the TRST signal is asserted during power-on reset.
Because the JTAG interface is also used for accessing the common on-chip processor (COP) function,
simply tying TRST to HRESET is not practical.
The COP function of these processors allows a remote computer system (typically, a PC with dedicated
hardware and debugging software) to access and control the internal operations of the processor . The COP
interface connects primarily through the JTAG port of the processor, with some additional status
monitoring signals. The COP port requires the ability to independently assert HRESET or TRST in order
to fully control the processor . If the tar get system has independent reset sources, such as voltage monitors,
watchdog timers, power supply failures, or push-button switches, the COP reset signals must be merged
into these signals with logic.
The arrangement shown in Figure 26 allows the COP port to independently assert HRESET or TRST,
while ensuring that the target can drive HRESET as well. If the JTAG interface and COP header will not
be used, TRST should be tied to HRESET through a 0-Ω isolation resistor so that it is asserted when the
system reset signal (HRESET) is asserted, ensuring that the JTAG scan chain is initialized during
power-on. While Freescale recommends that the COP header be designed into the system as shown in
Figure 26, if this is not possible, the isolation resistor will allow future access to TRST in the case where
a JTAG interface may need to be wired onto the system in debug situations.
The COP header shown in Figure 26 adds many benefits—breakpoints, watchpoints, register and memory
examination/modification, and other standard debugger features are possible through this interface—and
can be as inexpensive as an unpopulated footprint for a header to be added when needed.
The COP interface has a standard header for connection to the target system, based on the 0.025"
square-post, 0.100" centered header assembly (often called a Berg header). The connector typically has
pin 14 removed as a connector key.
There is no standardized way to number the COP header shown in Figure 26; consequently , many different
pin numbers have been observed from emulator vendors. Some are numbered top-to-bottom then
left-to-right, while others use left-to-right then top-to-bottom, while still others number the pins counter
clockwise from pin 1 (as with an IC). Regardless of the numbering, the signal placement recommended in
Figure 26 is common to all known emulators.
MPC7457 RISC Microprocessor Hardware Specifications, Rev. 7
Freescale Semiconductor 57
System Design Information
The QACK signal shown in Figure 26 is usually connected to the PCI bridge chip in a system and is an
input to the MPC7457 informing it that it can go into the quiescent state. Under normal operation this
occurs during a low-power mode selection. In order for COP to work, the MPC7457 must see this signal
asserted (pulled down). While shown on the COP header , not all emulator products drive this signal. If the
product does not, a pull-down resistor can be populated to assert this signal. Additionally, some emulator
products implement open-drain type outputs and can only drive QACK asserted; for these tools, a pull-up
resistor can be implemented to ensure this signal is deasserted when it is not being driven by the tool. Note
that the pull-up and pull-down resistors on the QACK signal are mutually exclusive and it is never
necessary to populate both in a system. To preserve correct power-down operation, QACK should be
merged via logic so that it also can be driven by the PCI bridge.

9.8 Thermal Management Information
This section provides thermal management information for the ceramic ball grid array (CBGA) package
for air-cooled applications. Proper thermal control design is primarily dependent on the system-level
design—the heat sink, airflow , and thermal interface material. T o reduce the die-junction temperature, heat
sinks may be attached to the package by several methods—spring clip to holes in the printed-circuit board
or package, and mounting clip and screw assembly (see Figure 27); however, due to the potential large
mass of the heat sink, attachment through the printed-circuit board is suggested. If a spring clip is used,
the spring force should not exceed 10 pounds.
Figure 27. Package Exploded Cross-Sectional View with Several Heat Sink Options
The board designer can choose between several types of heat sinks to place on the MPC7457. There are
several commercially available heat sinks for the MPC7457 provided by the following vendors:

Ultimately, the final selection of an appropriate heat sink depends on many factors, such as thermal
performance at a given air velocity, spatial volume, mass, attachment method, assembly, and cost.
9.8.1 Internal Package Conduction Resistance
For the exposed-die packaging technology, shown in Table 5, the intrinsic conduction thermal resistance
paths are as follows:
The die junction-to-case (actually top-of-die since silicon die is exposed) thermal resistance
The die junction-to-ball thermal resistance
Figure 28 depicts the primary heat transfer path for a package with an attached heat sink mounted to a
printed-circuit board.
Figure 28. C4 Package with Heat Sink Mounted to a Printed-Circuit Board
Heat generated on the active side of the chip is conducted through the silicon, through the heat sink attach
material (or thermal interface material), and finally to the heat sink where it is removed by forced-air
convection.
Because the silicon thermal resistance is quite small, for a first-order analysis, the temp erature drop in the
silicon may be neglected. Thus, the thermal interface material and the heat sink conduction/convective
thermal resistances are the dominant terms.

9.8.2 Thermal Interface Materials
A thermal interface material is recommended at the package lid-to-heat sink interface to minimize the
thermal contact resistance. For those applications where the heat sink is attached by spring clip
mechanism, Figure 29 shows the thermal performance of three thin-sheet thermal-interface materials
(silicone, graphite/oil, floroether oil), a bare joint, and a joint wi th thermal gr ease as a func tion of contact
pressure. As shown, the performance of these thermal interface materials improves with increasing contact
pressure. The use of thermal grease significantly reduces the interface ther mal resistance. That is, the bare
joint results in a thermal resistance approximately seven times greater than the thermal grease joint.
Often, heat sinks are attached to the package by means of a spring clip to holes in the printed-circuit board
(see Figure 27). Therefore, the synthetic grease offers the best thermal performance, considering the low
interface pressure and is recommended due to the high power dissipation of the MPC7457. Of course, the
selection of any thermal inter face material depends on many factors—thermal performance requirements,
manufacturability, service temperature, dielectric properties, cost, etc.
Figure 29. Thermal Performance of Select Thermal Interface Material
The board designer can choose between several types of thermal interface. Heat sink adhesive materials
should be selected based on high conductivity, yet adequate mechanical strength to meet equipment
shock/vibration requirements. There are several commercially available thermal interfaces and adhesive

The following section provides a heat sink selection example using one of the commercially available heat
sinks.
9.8.3 Heat Sink Selection Example
For preliminary heat sink sizing, the die-junction temperature can be expressed as follows:
Tj = TI + Tr + (RθJC + Rθint + Rθsa) × Pd
where:
Tj is the die-junction temperature
TI is the inlet cabinet ambient temperature
Tr is the air temperature rise within the computer cabinet
RθJC is the junction-to-case thermal resistance
Rθint is the adhesive or interface material thermal resistance
Rθsa is the heat sink base-to-ambient thermal resistance
Pd is the power dissipated by the device
During operation, the die-junction temperatures (Tj) should be maintained less than the value specified in
Table 4. The temperature of air cooling the component greatly depends on the ambient inlet air temperature
and the air temperature rise within the electronic cabinet. An elec tronic cabinet inle t- air te mperature (Ta)
may range from 30° to 40°C. The air temperature rise within a cabinet (Tr) may be in the range of 5° to
10°C. The thermal resistance of the thermal interface material (Rθint) is typically about 1.5°C/W. For
MPC7457 RISC Microprocessor Hardware Specifications, Rev. 7
Freescale Semiconductor 63
System Design Information
example, assuming a Ta of 30°C, a Tr of 5°C, a CBGA package RθJC = 0.1, and a typical power
consumption (Pd) of 18.7 W, the following expression for Tj is obtained:
Die-junction temperature: Tj = 30°C + 5°C + (0.1°C/W + 1.5°C/W + θsa) × 18.7 W
For this example, a Rθsavalue of 2.1°C/W or less is required to maintain the die junction temperature below
the maximum value of Table 4.
Though the die junction-to-ambient and the heat sink-to-ambient thermal resistances are a common
figure-of-merit used for comparing the thermal performance of various microelectronic packaging
technologies, one should exercise caution when only using this metric in determining thermal management
because no single parameter can adequately describe three-dimensional heat flow. The final die-junction
operating temperature is not only a function of the component-level thermal resistance, but the
system-level design and its operating conditions. In addition to the component's power consumption, a
number of factors affect the final operating die-junction temperature—airflow, board population (local
heat flux of adjacent components), heat sink efficiency, heat sink attach, heat sink placement, next-level
interconnect technology, system air temperature rise, altitude, etc.
Due to the complexity and the many variations of system-level boundary conditions for today's
microelectronic equipment, the combined effects of the heat transfer mechanisms (radiation, convection,
and conduction) may vary widely. For these reasons, we recommend using conjugate heat transfer models
for the board, as well as system-level designs.
For system thermal modeling, the MPC7447 and MPC7457 thermal model is shown in Figure 30. Four
volumes will be used to represent this device. Two of the volumes, solder ball, and air and substrate, are
modeled using the package outline size of the package. The other two, die, and bump and underfill, have
the same size as the die. The silicon die should be modeled 9.64 × 11.0 × 0.74 mm with the heat source
applied as a uniform source at the bottom of the volume. The bump and underfill layer is modeled as 9.64 ×
11.0 × 0.069 mm (or as a collapsed volume) with orthotropic material properties: 0.6 W/(m • K) in the
xy-plane and 2 W/(m • K) in the direction of the z-axis. The substrate volume is 25 × 25 × 1.2 mm
(MPC7447) or 29 × 29 × 1.2 mm (MPC7457), and this volume has 18 W/(m K) isotropic conductivity.
The solder ball and air layer is modeled with the same horizontal dimensions as the substrate and is 0.9 mm
thick. It can also be modeled as a collapsed volume using orthotropic material properties: 0.034 W/(m •
K) in the xy-plane direction and 3.8 W/(m • K) in the direction of the z-axis.
