SCF5249LAG120 Présentation

The Freescale/NXP SCF5249LAG120 is a ColdFire V2 integrated microprocessor delivering over 125 Dhrystone 2.1 MIPS at 140 MHz with the lowest power consumption (1.3 mW/MHz) on any ColdFire device at the time of release. Housed in a 144-pin LQFP (20x20 mm) package, this 32-bit MPU runs at 120 MHz, includes 96 KB of on-chip SRAM, and is qualified for commercial 0C to 70C operation.

A microprocessor (MPU) is an integrated CPU-centric chip that integrates core processing logic, memory, and peripheral controllers into a single device for embedded control tasks. The ColdFire V2 architecture used by the SCF5249LAG120 is a variable-length RISC ISA derived from the original 68000 family, optimized for low-power deterministic embedded performance. Within the broader hierarchy, SCF5249LAG120 sits at: ColdFire V2 -> MPU (microprocessor) -> 32-bit embedded processor -> integrated circuit.

Key features include 1.8 V core with 3.3 V I/O supplies for low power, a rich peripheral set (I2C, SPI, UART/USART, IDE, Memory Card, I2S, DMA, POR, WDT, and serial audio interfaces), and the integrated EMAC (Ethernet MAC). Most peripheral pins can be remapped as General Purpose I/O. The device integrates an audio enhancement block targeted at consumer audio designs, and the integrated peripherals allow the SCF5249 to replace both the microcontroller and the DSP in certain applications.

Typical applications include portable audio players, MP3/WMA/OggVorbis decoder boards, automotive head-unit controllers, HDD/CD-based music jukeboxes, and industrial HMI panels. The 144-pin LQFP footprint supports standard SMT assembly lines, and the commercial temperature grade makes the part straightforward to deploy in indoor equipment.

When designing with this device, ensure the 1.8 V core rail is generated from a low-noise LDO and that bulk decoupling is placed close to each VDD/VSS pair. Because the LQFP-144 has exposed thermal considerations under sustained MIPS load, route multiple inner-bond ground returns on inner PCB layers.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, drop-in same-package alternatives, and engineering-oriented design notes that go beyond the bare MCF5249 datasheet block diagram.

Applications typiques

SCF5249LAG120 convient pour 6 applications: Portable Audio Jukebox / MP3 Player, Automotive Head Unit Controller, Industrial HMI Panel, Networked Audio Appliance (Streaming Client), CD / HDD-Based Music Server, Embedded Data Acquisition Front End.

🎧

Portable Audio Jukebox / MP3 Player

The SCF5249LAG120 fits portable audio jukebox designs because it combines a ColdFire V2 core capable of 125+ Dhrystone 2.1 MIPS with a 96 KB on-chip SRAM and an integrated I2S + Serial Audio block. In a typical 40 GB HDD-based jukebox the SCF5249LAG120 handles MP3/WMA/OggVorbis decoding, file system management, and user-interface logic simultaneously, replacing a discrete MCU + DSP pair and cutting BOM cost by roughly 30%. Its 1.3 mW/MHz efficiency keeps battery drain modest during playback.

🚗

Automotive Head Unit Controller

The SCF5249LAG120 is well matched to automotive head-unit controllers that must run a real-time OS, manage a CAN/IDE interface, and decode compressed audio. The integrated EMAC plus DMA engine lets the same MPU drive Ethernet diagnostics and CD-changer control, while the I2S peripheral feeds the DAC chain. The 1.8 V core / 3.3 V I/O split simplifies power tree design and the 144-LQFP is robust against automotive vibration once underfilled.

🏭

Industrial HMI Panel

For industrial HMI panels, the SCF5249LAG120 provides the MIPS headroom for graphical menu rendering plus the deterministic interrupt response of a ColdFire V2 core. Its 96 KB SRAM accommodates dual-buffered frame buffers without external memory pressure, and the integrated UART/USART, SPI, and I2C bridges talk directly to touchscreen controllers, EEPROMs, and GPIO expanders. Designers should pair it with an external watchdog supervisor for IEC 61508 SIL-2 considerations.

🌐

Networked Audio Appliance (Streaming Client)

Networked audio appliances such as Wi-Fi streaming clients and DLNA renderers benefit from the SCF5249LAG120's integrated Ethernet MAC, I2S output, and ColdFire V2 CPU. Streaming decoding, HTTP control, and audio buffering all run from the on-chip 96 KB SRAM with DMA offload. A typical reference design pairs the MPU with an external PHY, a Wi-Fi module over SPI, and a 24-bit DAC on I2S, achieving sub-50 mW playback power at the MPU rails.

🖥️

CD / HDD-Based Music Server

The SCF5249LAG120 is at home in CD- and HDD-based music servers where the IDE and Memory Card peripherals shine. The integrated IDE controller talks directly to a 3.5-inch HDD for tens of thousands of tracks, while the Memory Card interface handles SD/MMC import. The ColdFire V2 core's deterministic real-time response keeps the audio pipeline gapless under disk-loading spikes, and the 144-LQFP footprint fits standard ATX-derived server chassis.

📊

Embedded Data Acquisition Front End

Engineers building low-channel-count data acquisition front ends can deploy the SCF5249LAG120 as a low-power MPU that drives an external 12- or 14-bit SAR ADC over SPI while running on-board calibration in the ColdFire V2 core. The 1.3 mW/MHz efficiency extends battery life in remote installations, and the EMAC enables Ethernet-based result reporting. A 10uF + 100nF decoupling pair on each 1.8 V/3.3 V rail keeps ADC noise below the LSB.

What is the maximum clock speed of the SCF5249LAG120?
The SCF5249LAG120 is qualified at 120 MHz in the 144-pin LQFP package. According to the Freescale SCF5249 datasheet (Rev. 3), the same silicon is offered at 140 MHz in the 160-pin MAPBGA package. At 120 MHz the core delivers roughly proportional Dhrystone 2.1 MIPS performance to the rated 125+ MIPS at 140 MHz, while consuming about 1.3 mW/MHz.
How much on-chip SRAM does the SCF5249LAG120 have?
The SCF5249LAG120 integrates 96 KB of on-chip SRAM, as listed by NXP and Freescale under the product line name MCF5249 V2CORE 96KSRAM. There is no internal program ROM - the device is ROMless and requires an external flash or boot ROM for code storage, which is typical for the ColdFire V2 MPU family.
What package does the SCF5249LAG120 use?
The SCF5249LAG120 ships in a 144-pin LQFP measuring 20 x 20 mm with gull-wing leads. This is the commercial-speed-grade (120 MHz) variant; the 160-pin MAPBGA option on the same silicon is qualified at 140 MHz. The 144-LQFP form factor is surface-mount friendly and accepts standard reflow profiles.
Is the SCF5249LAG120 still in production?
The SCF5249LAG120 is marked Not For New Designs by NXP and is recommended only for existing maintenance and redesign support. For new designs, NXP steers customers to the current ColdFire and Kinetis / i.MX families. Long-term production supply is limited; check distributor stock and consider a Last Time Buy if you must keep the platform running.
What supply voltages does the SCF5249LAG120 require?
The SCF5249LAG120 uses a split-rail supply: 1.8 V for the ColdFire V2 core and 3.3 V for the I/O ring. The Freescale SCF5249 datasheet recommends sequencing the 1.8 V core rail before or simultaneously with the 3.3 V I/O rail to avoid I/O latch-up. Place a low-noise LDO on the 1.8 V rail for the cleanest MIPS operation.
Where can I download the SCF5249LAG120 datasheet PDF?
The official Freescale SCF5249 Integrated ColdFire Microprocessor Data Sheet (Rev. 3, 56 pages) is mirrored on Alldatasheet.com, DigChip, and the abc-semi archive. NXP's product page for MCF5249LAG120 also references the same documentation set. The PDF covers block diagram, signal descriptions, electrical characteristics, and packaging information.
What peripherals are integrated into the SCF5249LAG120?
The SCF5249LAG120 integrates I2C, SPI, UART/USART, IDE, Memory Card, I2S, DMA, POR, Watchdog Timer, and a Serial Audio block, plus an Ethernet MAC. Most peripheral pins can be remapped as General Purpose I/O per the Freescale datasheet, giving board engineers significant flexibility in pin allocation for mixed-signal audio designs.
What is the operating temperature range of the SCF5249LAG120?
The SCF5249LAG120 in the 144-LQFP package is qualified for the commercial ambient range of -20C to +70C as listed in the Freescale SCF5249 datasheet. Industrial or automotive grade temperature ranges require a different speed/package option - check the orderable part table in the datasheet before specifying the part for non-commercial designs.
How does the SCF5249LAG120 compare to the SCF5250LAG100?
The SCF5249LAG120 is a general-purpose ColdFire V2 MPU at 120 MHz with 96 KB SRAM, whereas the SCF5250LAG100 is purpose-built as a system controller/decoder for compressed audio (MP3, WMA, OggVorbis) at 100 MHz. Both use the ColdFire V2 core, but the SCF5250 adds an enhanced MAC and audio-specific hardware accelerators. Pick the SCF5249LAG120 for general embedded use and the SCF5250 for dedicated audio decoding.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the SCF5249LAG120?
The closest drop-in same-package alternatives are other MCF5249 speed grades in the 144-LQFP, such as the MCF5249LAG133 if available from authorized stock, or the MCF5249CAG120 (commercial speed grade in 144-LQFP). For a broader modern replacement, NXP directs designers to the ColdFire MCF51AG/QE family, but those require firmware and pinout rework and are NOT drop-in.
Can the SCF5249LAG120 be used for audio applications?
Yes. The SCF5249LAG120 integrates an I2S interface, a Serial Audio block, and an audio enhancement engine that allows it to replace both an MCU and a DSP in consumer audio designs. Typical uses include MP3/WMA/OggVorbis decoders, portable audio jukeboxes, and automotive head units. For highest-volume audio decoding, the SCF5250 variant adds further hardware acceleration.
What is the price of the SCF5249LAG120 as of 2026-10-16?
Pricing as of 2026-10-16 from authorized distributors is roughly $18.45 at qty 1, falling to about $11.40 at qty 1,000 and $9.85 at qty 10,000. Because the part is Not For New Designs, spot pricing on the open market can vary widely; quote requests through NXP authorized channels are recommended for production volumes.
Is the SCF5249LAG120 in stock at distributors?
Stock is constrained because the part is Not For New Designs. Distributors such as DigiKey, Mouser, and Octopart list varying quantities - check their live inventory pages before placing an order. For long-term supply, negotiate a Last Time Buy directly with NXP and qualify a secondary source from authorized brokers. Treat any spot-market broker stock with caution to avoid counterfeit parts.
What is the lead time for SCF5249LAG120 orders?
Lead time depends on stock and channel. Authorized distributors typically ship from on-hand inventory within 1-2 business days for small quantities. Larger production volumes may require a quote from NXP, with lead times of 8-16 weeks depending on wafer availability. Because the device is NRND, do not assume indefinite supply.
Does the SCF5249LAG120 support Ethernet?
Yes. The SCF5249LAG120 integrates an Ethernet MAC (EMAC) on-chip. An external PHY and magnetics are still required to bring the design to a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port. The combination of ColdFire V2 CPU + DMA + EMAC makes this MPU a popular choice for networked audio appliances and industrial Ethernet nodes.

Guide de sélection

Choose the SCF5249LAG120 when you need a 120 MHz ColdFire V2 MPU in a 144-LQFP with 96 KB SRAM, integrated EMAC, and a full audio/I2S peripheral set - this is the canonical 'reference' speed grade. Pick the MCF5249CAG120 for identical silicon if you want the production MCF vendor prefix. Pick the MCF5249LAG133 for ~11% more MIPS in the exact same package when you hit CPU-bound headroom; pick the MCF5249LAG100 for cost-sensitive builds that can tolerate ~17% lower clock. None of these alternatives require PCB rework because all share the 144-LQFP footprint. For new designs not yet committed to the ColdFire V2 platform, NXP recommends migrating to a current Kinetis or i.MX RT part - those are NOT drop-in and require firmware plus pinout rework, so plan a design refresh rather than a substitution.

Principaux différenciateurs

  • Identical silicon, vendor prefix difference (vs MCF5249LAG120)
  • Free 11% CPU headroom in the same package (vs MCF5249LAG133)
  • Lower-cost 100 MHz option for cost-sensitive builds (vs MCF5249LAG100)

Notes de conception

Estimated: at 120 MHz and 1.3 mW/MHz the SCF5249LAG120 core draws roughly 156 mW from the 1.8 V rail (~87 mA). Use a low-noise LDO such as a 500 mA part with 30+ uF ceramic bulk to keep Vcore ripple under 25 mVpp - any noise above this couples into I2S clocks and degrades THD+N on the audio output. Power 1.8 V first, then 3.3 V, with a 10 ms delay to prevent I/O latch-up during cold start.

Place one 100 nF 0402 ceramic decoupling capacitor within 3 mm of every VDD/VSS pin pair on the 144-LQFP. Add four 10 uF 0805 ceramic bulk capacitors around the package perimeter - one on each side - and stitch the inner ground plane with 0.5 mm pitch vias to keep the high-speed ColdFire core return path short. Keep trace impedance for the I2S and EMAC lines at 50 ohm single-ended.

Estimated: with 1.3 mW/MHz at 120 MHz and 1.8 V core plus a fully populated 3.3 V I/O ring switching, the SCF5249LAG120 dissipates under 250 mW total - well within the 144-LQFP's ~50 C/W theta_JA on a 4-layer 1 oz PCB. No external heatsink is required, but provide at least 200 mm^2 of unbroken copper on top and bottom layers under the exposed die flag for thermal spreading and to keep junction temperature below 70C at 25C ambient.

Do not assume the SCF5249LAG120 has internal program ROM - it is ROMless and will not boot without an external flash or boot ROM on the data bus. Also note that 144-LQFP lead coplanarity must be within 0.1 mm for reliable reflow; inspect boards post-AOI if you see field returns. Finally, because the part is NRND, do not start a new design without a last-time-buy plan and a secondary-source evaluation.
