MPC8572DS
Integrated communications processor development system
Overview
The ATX form-factor MPC8572E development
system (MPC8572DS) is ideal for hardware
and software development for embedded
applications. It leverages Freescale’s highly
integrated MPC8572E processor, built on
Power Architecture
®
technology, and
leading-edge external components.
The high level of integration in the MPC8572
processor helps to lower system costs,
improve performance and simplify board
design. The MPC8572E processor features:

Many third-party applications are available
for the MPC8572DS. They are typically
builtontopoftheBSPdeliveredby
Freescale and can be installed on the hard
disk. To see demonstrations or to acquire
