Audience
This manual is intended for system software and hardware developers and applications programmers who
want to develop products with the MCF5272. It is assumed that the reader understands operating systems,
microprocessor system design, basic principles of software and hardware, and basic details of the
ColdFire

architecture.
Organization
Following is a summary and brief description of the major sections of this manual:
•
,” includes general descriptions of the modules and features incorporated in
the MCF5272, focussing in particular on new features.
•
,” provides an overview of the microprocessor core of the MCF5272.
The chapter describes the organization of the Version 2 (V2) ColdFire 5200 processor core and an
overview of the program-visible registers (the programming model) as they are implemented on
the MCF5272. It also includes a full description of exception handling and a table of instruction
timings.
•
Chapter 3, “Hardware Multiply/Accumulate (MAC) Unit
multiply/accumulate unit, which executes integer multiply, multiply-accumulate, and
miscellaneous register instructions. The MAC is integrated into the operand execution pipeline
(OEP).
•
.” This chapter describes the MCF5272 implementation of the ColdFire
V2 local memory specification. It consists of three major sections, as follows.
—
,” describes the MCF5272 on-chip static RAM (SRAM)
implementation. It covers general operations, configuration, and initialization. It also provides
information and examples of how to minimize power consumption when using the SRAM.
—
,” describes the MCF5272 on-chip static ROM. The ROM
module contains tabular data that the ColdFire core can access in a single cycle.
—
Section 4.5, “Instruction Cache Overview
,” describes the MCF5272 cache implementation,
including organization, configuration, and coherency. It describes cache operations and how
the cache interacts with other memory structures.
