Freescale PowerPC PowerQuicc-I MPC885 (8xx)

The LinuxLink software distribution model enables the usage of the MPC885 LinuxLink for development targeting all designs based on MPC885 processor. The most advanced and feature-rich PowerQUICC I devices available, the MPC885 family of processors are engineered to deliver on-chip security, dual Fast Ethernet (MII and RMII) ports, USB, and bus speeds scaling to 80 MHz for higher system throughput.

Processor derivatives enabled:

The MPC885 LinuxLink can also be used as a starting point for Linux development for designs based on the MPC870, MPC875, MPC880 and MPC885 processors.

Reference boards/OEM boards enabled:

The MPC885 LinuxLink can also be used as a starting point for Linux development for designs derived from:

Notes:

Complete peripheral support for MPC885 derived integrated processors, or board support for other reference designs, might need to be sourced from manufacturers of the respective processors or reference boards.
