Quad integrated communications controller combines a CPU32+ processor core, system integration logic, and a RISC communications processor module on one device. The controller supports operation up to 33 MHz, a 32-bit data bus, 32 address lines, and dynamic bus sizing for 8-bit and 16-bit interfaces. Its communications resources include four SCCs, two SMCs, one SPI, two TDM channels, four baud-rate generators, 14 serial DMA channels, and 2.5 KB of dual-port RAM. The device includes an eight-bank memory controller with DRAM support, four general-purpose timers, two independent DMA controllers, low-power stop mode, and an IEEE 1149.1 test access port.
