remain unconnected. Power and ground connections must be made to all external VDD, TVDD, BVDD,

OVDD, GVDD, and LVDD, and GND pins of the device.

Pull-Up and Pull-Down Resistor Requirements

The MPC8544E requires weak pull-up resistors (2–10 k

Ω is recommended) on open drain type pins

including I2C pins and MPIC interrupt pins.

Correct operation of the JTAG interface requires configuration of a group of system control pins as

demonstrated in Figure 69. Care must be taken to ensure that these pins are maintained at a valid deasserted

state under normal operating conditions as most have asynchronous behavior and spurious assertion will

give unpredictable results.

The following pins must NOT be pulled down during power-on reset: TSEC3_TXD[3], HRESET_REQ,

TRIG_OUT/READY/QUIESCE, MSRCID[2:4], ASLEEP. The DMA_DACK[0:1] and TEST_SEL pins

must be set to a proper state during POR configuration. Refer to the pinout listing table (Table 62) for more

details. Refer to the PCI 2.2 Local Bus Specifications, for all pullups required for PCI.

Output Buffer DC Impedance

The MPC8544E drivers are characterized over process, voltage, and temperature. For all buses, the driver

is a push-pull single-ended driver type (open drain for I2C). To measure Z0 for the single-ended drivers,

an external resistor is connected from the chip pad to OVDD or GND. Then, the value of each resistor is

varied until the pad voltage is OVDD/2 (see Figure 67). The output impedance is the average of two

components, the resistances of the pull-up and pull-down devices. When data is held high, SW1 is closed

(SW2 is open) and RP is trimmed until the voltage at the pad equals OVDD/2. RP then becomes the

resistance of the pull-up devices. RP and RN are designed to be close to each other in value. Then,

Z0 =(RP +RN)/2.
