Overview

The TRK-MPC5604PTRK-MPC5604P is a demonstration and development system for Freescale’s MPC5604P microcontrollers. The Embedded OSJTAG circuitry on the TRK-MPC5604P board allows the processor on the board to be debugged and programmed via USB from a PC. In addition, the demo board can be powered using the USB bus. An optional 14-pin JTAG port is provided to allow the use of an external Qorivva MPC55xx/56xx interface such as P&E’s USB Multilink or Cyclone MAX automated programmer. P&E’s USB Multilink provides faster communication speeds and can be used to debug both the TRK-MPC5604P and the user’s own targets.

The TRK-MPC5604PTRK-MPC5604P board has a built-in virtual serial port which may be connected to the MPC5604P processor’s SCI RXD/TXD. This allows certain PC applications to be able to connect in a serial fashion to the microcontroller without the actual use of serial port hardware.

The TRK-MPC5604PTRK-MPC5604P includes P&E’s OSJTAG circuitry, so no external Qorivva hardware tool is needed to debug and program the TRK-MPC5604P. A user only needs to connect the TRK-MPC5604P to their PC to start developing code for it. The TRK-MPC5604P package comes with a special edition of Freescale’s CodeWarrior studio. User may use either CodeWarrior or P&E software tools to develop code for the TRK-MPC5604P.

Qorivva MPC560xP family is a 32-bit Power Architecture microcontroller solution for sophisticated chassis applications. It enables electronic replacement for heavy hydraulic and engine driven applications to help improve fuel efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while addressing requirements for functional safety applications. Qorivva MPC560xP microcontrollers are SafeAssure functional safety solutions.

Note: The DEMO board’s Embedded OSJTAG is intended to function with the onboard processor only. It cannot be used to communicate with other devices.

Key Applications: Electric Power Steering (EPS) , DSI Airbag System, PSI5 Airbag System, Braking and Stability Control, Active Suspension, Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) Inverter Controller
