MC68882EI16AR Présentation
A floating-point unit (FPU), also called a math co-processor or numeric co-processor, is a specialized integrated circuit that accelerates floating-point arithmetic operations - addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, square root and transcendental functions - far beyond the throughput of a general-purpose integer CPU. The MC68882 sits on the M68000 family bus as a companion to the host CPU, offloading scalar and vector floating-point work via the standardized M68000 co-processor interface. Synonyms include FPU, floating-point accelerator, math co-processor, and numeric processor; hierarchy: FPU -> math co-processor -> specialized IC -> integrated circuit -> semiconductor.
Key features include IEEE 754 compliant single (32-bit) and double (64-bit) precision, extended (80-bit) precision registers, full 8 80-bit data registers, support for the M68000 co-processor interface, and pin/functional compatibility with the broader MC68882 family. The 'E' industrial temperature grade spans -40C to +85C, the 'I' indicates the 16 MHz speed grade, and the 'AR' suffix denotes a tape-and-reel PLCC package for surface-mount assembly.
Architecturally, the MC68882 uses a hardwired control unit rather than microcode, a fully pipelined floating-point execution core, and conforms to the IEEE 754-1985 standard including denormalized numbers, four rounding modes, and full trap handling. It communicates with the host MPU through dedicated M68000 co-processor protocol signals including FCOFC, FCIACK, FDOFC, and FDIACK.
Typical applications include workstation-class numeric computing, CAD/CAM systems, scientific instrumentation, real-time signal processing where floating-point precision is required, and legacy M68000 platform upgrades. The part is also broadly present in industrial embedded controllers, avionics (where still qualified), and military retrofit programs that depend on the long-lifecycle 68k ecosystem.
When designing with this co-processor, ensure the host MPU is configured to drive the M68000 co-processor handshake lines and that bus arbitration timing matches the 16 MHz clock. Note that the MC68882 is a mature EOL/NRND part; confirm long-term availability with NXP franchised distributors before committing to new designs.

Applications typiques
MC68882EI16AR convient pour 6 applications: Workstation-Class Numeric Computing, CAD/CAM and EDA Workstations, Industrial Embedded Controllers, Scientific Instrumentation, Real-Time Signal Processing, Legacy 68k Platform Maintenance.
Workstation-Class Numeric Computing
The MC68882EI16AR brings IEEE 754 single, double, and extended 80-bit arithmetic to M68020/MC68030-based workstations, accelerating numerically intensive workloads in CAD, scientific computing, and engineering simulation. Pairs naturally with host MCUs like the MC68020RC16B for a complete numeric platform.
Recommandé
CAD/CAM and EDA Workstations
CAD/CAM and electronic-design-automation workstations from the late 1980s and 1990s relied on the MC68882EI16AR's hardwired floating-point pipeline to deliver real-time transforms, ray-tracing, and SPICE simulation throughput that integer-only 68k CPUs could not provide. The 16 MHz clock and industrial temperature grade suit office and lab environments.
Recommandé
Industrial Embedded Controllers
Industrial motion controllers, PLCs, and process-control systems use the MC68882EI16AR for deterministic floating-point math in PID loops, sensor fusion, and real-time control algorithms. The industrial -40C to +85C operating range and HCMOS low-power design suit plant-floor deployments requiring long-term support.
Recommandé
Scientific Instrumentation
Bench-top and rack-mount scientific instruments - oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, signal analyzers from the M68000 era - integrate the MC68882EI16AR to deliver IEEE 754-precise FFTs, calibration math, and measurement post-processing. Its 80-bit extended precision reduces rounding error in long measurement chains and integration routines.
Recommandé
Real-Time Signal Processing
Radar, sonar, and signal-intelligence subsystems built on the M68000 architecture used the MC68882EI16AR's pipelined FMUL/FDIV unit to compute floating-point DSP kernels (filters, FFT butterflies, beamforming weights) in real time. The part's hardwired control logic gives deterministic latency that is valuable in tight real-time loops.
Recommandé
Legacy 68k Platform Maintenance
Long-lifecycle military, avionics, transportation, and medical systems deployed in the 1990s and still in service today depend on the MC68882EI16AR for field upgrades and form-fit-function replacements. Sourcing through Rochester Electronics and authorized NXP partners ensures form-fit-function continuity for platforms where requalification of a new FPU is impractical.

Principaux différenciateurs
- Higher host clock throughput at drop-in cost (vs MC68882EI20A)
- Industrial temperature grade over commercial equivalent (vs MC68882RC16A)
- Original-tape-and-reel packaging for SMT (vs MC68882EI16A)
Notes de conception
The MC68882 cannot be used with the MC68040 or MC68060 because those CPUs include an on-die FPU; adding an external MC68882 will cause bus contention and undefined behavior. It is exclusively for MC68020 and MC68030 hosts.
The MC68882 family has been NRND for years and is widely considered obsolete. New designs should not commit to this part; existing 68k systems should establish long-term supply agreements with NXP franchised distributors or contract manufacturing partners such as Rochester Electronics.
On PLCC land patterns, route the FCOFC/FCIACK/FDOFC/FDIACK co-processor handshake lines with matched lengths to the host MPU and keep them isolated from address/data bus switching to avoid handshake glitches. Place 0.1 uF ceramic bypass capacitors within 5 mm of each VCC pin and a bulk 10 uF tantalum near the package.
Estimated: at 16 MHz and typical 5 V / 0.5 A load, the MC68882EI16AR dissipates approximately 1.5 W. The 68-pin PLCC has a theta_JA around 35-45 C/W, yielding a junction temperature rise of 50-70 C above ambient. For sealed enclosures, derate by 30 % and verify with a thermal probe at the package top.
Informations de conformité
RoHS, lead-free, and halogen-free status were not in the verified web data and are not assumed. AEC-Q100 is not applicable because this is a legacy MPU co-processor, not an automotive-grade IC.
