Using MSC8154 DSPs
Overview
complete debugging environment intended
MSC8154E processor environment. On-board
resources and the associated debugger
enable developers to perform a variety of
tasks, including:
for engineers developing applications for
• Download and run code
the MSC8154/MSC8154E Freescale digital
• Set breakpoints
signal processor (DSP). The MSC8154 and
• Display memory and registers
the MSC8154E devices are highly integrated
DSP processors that contain four StarCore®
SC3850 DSP subsystems (48 GMACS at 1
GHz). These devices target high-bandwidth,
highly computational DSP applications and
are optimized for 3GPP, TD-SCDMA, 3G-LTE
and WiMAX applications. The MSC8154ADS
is intended to serve as a platform for software
and hardware development in the MSC8154/
• Connect proprietary hardware via an
expansion connector
The MSC8154/MSC8154E application
development system (MSC8154ADS) is a
direct connections to debuggers, power
supply and other external connections.
• AMC Mode. The MSC8154ADS is inserted
in a standard MicroTCA® backplane that
allows testing of the high-speed Serial
RapidIO® and PCI Express® ports against
other platforms. By using a proprietary
B2B adaptor card, the AMC-X-Over,
the MSC8154 can work with a second
MSC8154 device on an additional ADS
board. The AMC edge connector carries
all interface signals at high speed between
the devices. The ADS is compatible with
The MSC8154ADS supports two working
configurations:
• Stand-Alone Mode. The MSC8154ADS
standard MicroTCA chassis, such as
can run in a stand-alone mode like other
a Schroff® or TUNDRA® development
application development systems, with

Features
• Supports the MSC8154 1 GHz with core
voltages of 1V
• The first DDR controller (DDRC1) is
configured in DDR2 mode: 200-pin
SOCDIMM with ECC support, 64-bit @ 800
Mbps, 1 GB of memory
• The second DDR controller (DDRC2)
is configured in DDR3 mode: 204-pin
SODIMM, 64-bit @ 800 Mbps, No-ECC,
1 GB of memory
• The MSC8154 RGMII (at ports GE1 and
GE2) connects to two single Marvell®
88E1111 GETH PHYs for regular board
configuration
• A Marvell 10-port SGMII switch 88E6182
links the MSC8154 SGMII lines to 2xRJ-45
copper connectors and to the 1000Base-X
over AMC MicroTCA connector ports 0
and 2
• Pericom PI2DBS212ZHE Diff Signal
Switch parts support programmable SerDes
lines multiplexing to AMC edge connector
or to the SGMII the switch

• Two Dallas E1/T1 framers connect to the
four MSC8154 TDM ports
• P1 and P3 connectors carry MSC8154
GPIO and TDM signals
• The MSC8154 configuration and boot
support includes reset configuration source
three-bit set by appropriate DIP switches,
parallel load of programmable reset
configuration word from FPGA registers
sampled previously from DIPswitch array,
serial configuration and boot from a large
(64 KB) or small (1 KB) I2C EEPROM, boot
from serial 8 MB SPI flash, boot from
communications ports (from SerDes Serial
RapidIO interface or from Ethernet SGMII
or RGMII ports)
• Two available debug interfaces, including
onboard USB TAP controller (eUTAP)
or OnCE 14-pin header for any external
TAP controller
• FPGA logic: board control and status
register (BCSR), JTAG controller allows
full board programming, multiplexing
of JTAG source signals, I2C master and
slave controllers, MII controller to program
RGMII PHY, SPI controller, boot sequencer
configures ADS peripherals for boot over
Ethernet, generation of TDM clock and

provides current board settings
• 100 MHz clock oscillator for MSC8154
clock in
• An external pulse generator as clock
source connects to the CLKIN connector.
The MSC8154 clock output signal may be
measured on CLKOUT test point.
• Can function in various main supply
configurations (configurable via DIP
switches or BCSR) in stand-alone mode
with an external power 12 VDC @ 5A when
S1 switch is on, or as an AMC card in
the MicroTCA system or interconnection
with AMC-X-Over card. If the ADS is fed
outside, the S1 power switch should be off.
• Onboard power system is comprised of two
regulator steps:
Primary power system is a Power-One
Power Manager with 1.0V POL regulator
for MSC8154 loads, including cores,
MAPLE and M3, 2.5V for I/O and 3.3V
for onboard peripherals, DDR switching
power supplies for DDRC1 and DDRC2
ports, LDOs for onboard peripherals
are fed from 2.5V and 3.3V POLs and
12V input voltage, voltage supervisor
monitors all the ADS power supplies.
Power Good (PG) signal and dedicated
LED LD14 indicate power system status.
Any failures cause nPRST signal be
continuously low.
Freescale supplies a complete set of
CodeWarrior™ DSP development tools for
the MSC8154 device. The tools provide
easier and more robust ways for designers to
develop optimized DSP systems. Whether the
application targets a 3G-LTE, TD-SCDMA or
WiMAX system, the development environment
gives designers everything they need to
exploit the advanced capabilities of the
MSC8154 architecture. In addition to the ADS
board, support tools include:
