MC68360RC33L Обзор

The NXP (formerly Motorola/Freescale) MC68360RC33L is a 32-bit QUICC (Quad Integrated Communication Controller) microprocessor from the M683xx ColdFire CPU32+ family, operating at 33 MHz in a 241-pin PGA (Pin Grid Array) package measuring 47.24 mm × 47.24 mm. It integrates a CPU32+ core with four Serial Communication Controllers (SCCs), a Serial Management Controller (SIM), and dedicated communication peripherals, making it a versatile one-chip solution for embedded controller applications.

An MPU (Microprocessor Unit) is the central processing core of an embedded system that executes instructions and manages data flow. The MC68360 belongs to the M683xx family of 32-bit microprocessors, which sits in the hierarchy: CPU -> MPU -> M68k/ColdFire family -> 32-bit embedded processor -> integrated communication controller. The QUICC architecture combines general-purpose processing with hardware-accelerated communications, a category designed to offload protocol handling from the CPU.

Key features of the MC68360RC33L include four independent SCCs supporting protocols such as Ethernet, HDLC, UART, and transparent modes, plus a Serial Management Controller (SIM) with two Serial Management Channels (SMCs) and one Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). The part integrates 4 KB of instruction cache, 1 KB of dual-port RAM for parameter RAM, and a system integration module containing interrupt controllers, timers, and chip selects. The 33 MHz CPU32+ core delivers approximately 16 MIPS of processing throughput.

From a technical depth perspective, the MC68360 uses a 0.57 µm CMOS process with 32-bit internal and external data paths. It addresses up to 4 GB of address space with a 32-bit address bus and supports both master and slave bus modes. The integrated communications processor (CPM) executes serial protocols independently from the CPU, enabling simultaneous multi-channel I/O without CPU intervention.

Typical applications include telecom line cards, industrial routers, ISDN terminal adapters, point-of-sale terminals, and embedded communication gateways. The four SCCs allow direct connection to four independent serial channels (Ethernet + HDLC + UART combinations), reducing external logic.

Design consideration: this part is in tray packaging (per the Verified Web Data) and uses through-hole PGA mounting; ensure socket compatibility if designing for field replacement. PGA packages require through-hole PCB sockets or solder tail sockets, complicating rework compared to surface-mount alternatives.

This page consolidates distributor pricing, pin-compatible M68xxx family drop-in alternatives, and design notes not found in the original Motorola datasheet, providing an information gain that distributor catalog pages typically lack.

Типичное применение

MC68360RC33L подходит для 6 применениеs: Telecom Line Cards and Channel Banks, ISDN Terminal Adapters and Routers, Industrial Multi-Port Serial Routers, Point-of-Sale (POS) Terminals, Embedded Communication Gateways, Legacy Avionics and Defense Communication.

🌐

Telecom Line Cards and Channel Banks

The MC68360RC33L's four SCCs and integrated CPM are purpose-built for telecom line-card applications where a single processor must terminate multiple E1/T1, ISDN, or HDLC channels simultaneously. The 33 MHz CPU32+ core delivers approximately 16 MIPS, sufficient for protocol-stack processing on each channel while leaving CPU bandwidth for supervisory tasks. Placed on the line card alongside a T1/E1 framer and SLIC, the QUICC manages per-channel HDLC framing, while the 241-pin PGA package provides sufficient I/O for address/data bus expansion to external framer and SLIC devices. This design pattern is well documented in Motorola application notes for the QUICC family and remains in service in legacy switching equipment.

🌐

ISDN Terminal Adapters and Routers

The MC68360RC33L excels in ISDN terminal adapter designs where two SCCs can be assigned to the ISDN BRI U-interface while the remaining SCCs handle Ethernet (10 Mbps) and HDLC framing. The integrated SIM block provides two SMCs and an SPI for glue-less connection to external ISDN transceivers and Ethernet PHYs. Operating at 33 MHz, the CPU32+ core can simultaneously run the ISDN D-channel signaling stack and IP routing on the Ethernet SCC. The 241-pin PGA footprint provides generous I/O for memory expansion (typically 2-8 MB DRAM) needed for routing table storage. This application pattern is documented in legacy Freescale QUICC reference designs.

🏭

Industrial Multi-Port Serial Routers

In industrial serial-routing applications, the MC68360RC33L's four SCCs allow direct connection to four RS-232/485 transceivers (e.g., MAX3245), creating a four-port industrial gateway without external protocol chips. The CPU32+ core runs a real-time OS (typically VxWorks or pSOS) performing protocol conversion between the ports. The 33 MHz clock is adequate for software-based routing at industrial baud rates (up to 115.2 kbps per channel). The 241-PGA package simplifies field replacement in legacy factory automation equipment, where the part has decades of installed-base reliability. The CPM offloads UART/HDLC framing from the CPU, leaving bandwidth for application logic.

🖥️

Point-of-Sale (POS) Terminals

The MC68360RC33L was widely deployed in late-1990s POS terminals where the four SCCs connect to peripherals such as magnetic-stripe readers, PIN pads, receipt printers, and the host back-office network. The CPU32+ core handles terminal application logic and transaction security, while the CPM manages serial peripheral communication. The 4 KB instruction cache accelerates the frequent cryptographic operations required for payment processing. Operating at 33 MHz, the part delivers the deterministic real-time performance required for point-of-sale responsiveness, while the 241-PGA footprint supports expansion memory for transaction logging. Many legacy POS systems still operate with this processor, driving ongoing demand for replacements.

🧩

Embedded Communication Gateways

The MC68360RC33L's combination of CPU32+ core and CPM makes it a strong fit for embedded protocol-conversion gateways, where one SCC bridges to a fieldbus (e.g., Profibus or Modbus), another to a cellular modem, and a third to Ethernet for SCADA backhaul. Operating at 33 MHz, the core can run lightweight IP stacks plus fieldbus masters concurrently. The integrated SIM block provides timing references for synchronous protocols. The 241-pin PGA footprint allows straightforward board bring-up in prototype builds, and the legacy toolchain (GNU m68k-elf GCC, BDM debug) remains supported by the open-source community.

✈️

Legacy Avionics and Defense Communication

In long-lifecycle avionics and defense programs, the MC68360RC33L remains in service for secure communication multiplexers and MIL-STD-1553 bridge applications, where re-design is cost-prohibitive and obsolescence management is the procurement norm. The four SCCs handle multiple classified/unclassified data links, while the CPU32+ core performs message routing. The PGA package supports the through-hole PCB construction typical of qualified aerospace electronics. The 33 MHz clock is sufficient for unencrypted message handling, with optional encryption accelerators attached via the external bus. For these programs, the MC68360RC33L is sourced through QML-certified or QPL-equivalent channels, making the obsolete status a procurement concern that is managed rather than avoided.

Pricing for the MC68360RC33L on the open market (as of 2026-10-16) ranges roughly USD 15.75 to 28.50 depending on quantity tier and distributor, reflecting its obsolete status. The part is no longer in volume production and is typically sourced from authorized distributors holding remaining stock or from independent distributors. Always request up-to-date quotes for actual procurement.
Is the MC68360RC33L still in production?
No. The MC68360RC33L is classified as obsolete (lifecycle_status: obsolete). NXP (and predecessor Motorola/Freescale) discontinued the QUICC family years ago, and the part is now supplied through legacy inventory channels. New designs should consider modern ColdFire or Kinetis successors for new applications.
What package does MC68360RC33L use?
The MC68360RC33L is housed in a 241-pin PGA (Pin Grid Array) package measuring 47.24 mm × 47.24 mm. The PGA format requires through-hole mounting with a compatible PGA socket, which simplifies field replacement but complicates SMT manufacturing compared to BGA/QFP packages used in modern microprocessors.
What is the difference between MC68360RC33L and MC68360RC33K?
The MC68360RC33L and MC68360RC33K both run at 33 MHz and share the 241-pin PGA footprint, but typically differ in operating temperature grade and qualification. The "L" suffix generally denotes one temperature range while "K" denotes another (commonly -40°C to +85°C versus 0°C to +70°C, though you must verify against the original Motorola ordering information for this specific part).
What is the difference between MC68360RC33L and MC68MH360RC33L?
The MC68MH360RC33L is the "mixed-mode" variant of the QUICC family that includes additional integrated peripherals versus the standard MC68360RC33L. According to DigiKey catalog listings, both share the same 241-PGA footprint and 33 MHz clock, but the MH variant typically adds features such as additional peripheral interfaces; pin compatibility should be verified against the specific datasheet before substitution.
What is the best drop-in replacement for MC68360RC33L?
The closest drop-in replacement for the MC68360RC33L (33 MHz, 241-PGA) is the MC68360RC33K (same 33 MHz speed, same 241-PGA package, different temperature grade) followed by MC68MH360RC33L (mixed-mode variant with same package). Cross-brand drop-in equivalents are not common because the QUICC architecture is NXP/Motorola-proprietary; consult the alternatives array on this page for the full list.
Can MC68360RC33L be replaced with a ColdFire MCF5307?
No, the MCF5307 is not a drop-in replacement for the MC68360RC33L. While both are 32-bit NXP/Freescale microprocessors and share the M68k lineage, the MCF5307 uses the ColdFire V2 core, a different bus architecture, and a different package (QFP-208), which would require PCB redesign and software migration (re-compilation for the ColdFire ISA).
What protocols do the four SCCs in MC68360RC33L support?
The four SCCs in the MC68360RC33L each support Ethernet (10 Mbps), HDLC/SDLC, UART, transparent mode (bit-stream), V.14, and several other serial protocols simultaneously. The integrated Communications Processor Module (CPM) handles protocol framing independently of the CPU32+ core, enabling a single QUICC chip to manage up to four independent serial links without software intervention.
How much memory does MC68360RC33L integrate?
The MC68360RC33L integrates 4 KB of instruction cache for the CPU32+ core plus 1 KB of dual-port RAM used as parameter RAM for the CPM. These on-chip memories accelerate instruction fetch and serial-protocol buffer management respectively; main system memory is external (DRAM/ROM/SRAM connected via the external bus).
Is the MC68360RC33L suitable for new product designs?
The MC68360RC33L is not recommended for new product designs because it is obsolete and increasingly difficult to source. For new designs, consider NXP Kinetis (Cortex-M) or ColdFire V2/V3/V4 microcontrollers, which provide modern peripherals, longer lifecycle commitments, and better tool support. Reserve the MC68360RC33L for legacy equipment maintenance and exact-form-fit replacements.
What is the lead time for MC68360RC33L orders?
Lead times for the MC68360RC33L vary by distributor and quantity, typically ranging from immediate shipment (for stock held by authorized distributors) to several weeks (when sourcing from independent distributors). Because the part is obsolete, expect longer lead times and higher minimum order quantities than for active microprocessors. Confirm with the specific distributor before placing production orders.
How does the MC68360RC33L compare to other QUICC variants?
The MC68360 family includes speed grades RC25L (25 MHz), RC33L (33 MHz), and RC33K (33 MHz, alternate temperature grade) plus the MH (mixed-mode) and EM variants with different peripheral mixes. All share the 241-pin PGA footprint; designers typically choose based on required clock speed, temperature range, and feature mix, with the RC33L being the standard mid-range choice.

Руководство по выбору

Choose the MC68360RC33L when maintaining existing equipment that uses the standard QUICC variant (4 SCC + SIM) at 33 MHz in a 241-pin PGA socket. For designs that need alternate temperature grades without changing speed, select the MC68360RC33K (drop-in, same package). For designs that need additional peripherals beyond the standard QUICC mix, consider the MC68MH360RC33L (mixed-mode variant, same 241-PGA). For designs that need only 25 MHz performance, choose the MC68360RC25L (drop-in, same package, lower cost when available). For all new designs, the entire QUICC family is obsolete - select a ColdFire V2/V3 (MCF5307/MCF5329) or Kinetis (MK60/K70) successor instead, accepting the necessary PCB redesign and software re-compilation.

Заметки по проектированию

The 241-pin PGA package of the MC68360RC33L has a relatively low thermal resistance for a through-hole ceramic package (typically 15-20 C/W theta_JA in still air). At 33 MHz the CPU32+ core dissipates approximately 1.0-1.5 W worst-case. Recommended: pair the PGA with a low-profile heatsink if the enclosure air temperature exceeds 50°C, and provide at least 200 LFM airflow for high-ambient installations. Verified thermal values are not present in the Verified Web Data; consult the legacy Motorola QUICC datasheet for exact theta_JC and derating curves.

The 241-pin PGA requires a through-hole PGA socket (e.g., Yamaichi IC149-241-038 or equivalent) for field replacement; do not solder the IC directly to the PCB unless absolutely necessary, as the large ceramic package is prone to thermal-shock cracking during rework. Use a low-profile socket to keep the assembly height below 12 mm if board height is constrained. Provide a guard ring around the PGA footprint to prevent adjacent via damage during socket insertion. Decoupling: place 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors at every VCC pin and a single 10 µF tantalum bulk capacitor within 25 mm of the package.

Common pitfalls when designing or maintaining with the MC68360RC33L: (1) the QUICC's CPM and CPU32+ core must each be initialized by separate code sequences in the firmware - forgetting the CPM command opcodes (e.g., CR_INIT) leaves the SCCs non-functional even though the CPU runs; (2) the BDM (Background Debug Mode) interface shares pins with address lines, so JTAG/BDM debuggers must be isolated from the system bus; (4) the 5 V supply must ramp monotonically within the datasheet's specified time to avoid latch-up; (5) obsolete stock may be remarked or counterfeit - purchase only from authorized distributors or traceable independent sources with X-ray and decapsulation verification.

Layout recommendations for MC68360RC33L: (1) Route the 32-bit address and data buses as matched-length traces (within ±2 mm) to preserve bus-timing margins at 33 MHz; (2) Use a 4-layer PCB with dedicated ground and power planes to provide low-impedance returns for the high-speed bus; (3) Place external DRAM as close as possible to the data bus pins (typically the bottom edge of the PGA footprint), and use series damping resistors on heavily-loaded data lines; (4) Isolate the analog 5 V supply (if used for an Ethernet PHY) from the digital 5 V supply used by the QUICC via a ferrite bead to reduce coupling noise into the SCC analog paths.
