e200z4 Core
This chapter contains an overview of the e200z4 processor core integrated in MPC5644A devices. For
detailed information see the publication

NOTE
There are two differences between the processor core in MPC5644A
devices and the e200z4 documented in the core reference manual.
MPC5644A devices feature a e200z448n3 core with 8 KB of instruction
cache (vs. 4 KB) and 24 MMU entries (vs. 16).
7.1
Overview
The microcontroller’s cost-efficient e200z4 host processor core is built on the Power Architecture
technology and designed specifically for embedded applications.
The e200z4 is a dual-issue, 32-bit Power Architecture compliant design with 64-bit general purpose
registers (GPRs). Power Architecture floating-point instructions are not supported by this core in
hardware, but are trapped and may be emulated by software.
An Embedded Floating-point (EFPU) APU is provided to support real-time single-precision embedded
numerics operations using the general-purpose registers.
A Signal Processing Extension (SPE) APU is provided to support real-time SIMD fixed point and
single-precision, embedded numerics operations using the general-purpose registers. All arithmetic
instructions that execute in the core operate on data in the general purpose registers (GPRs). The GPRs
have been extended to 64-bits in order to support vector instructions defined by the SPE APU. These
instructions operate on a vector pair of 16-bit or 32-bit data types, and deliver vector and scalar results.
In addition to the base Power Architecture instruction set support, the e200z4 core also implements the
VLE (variable-length encoding) technology, providing improved code density.
The e200z4 processor integrates a pair of integer execution units, a branch control unit, instruction fetch
unit and load/store unit, and a multi-ported register file capable of sustaining six read and three write
operations per clock. Most integer instructions execute in a single clock cycle. Branch target prefetching
is performed by the branch unit to allow single-cycle branches in many cases.
The e200z4 contains an 8 KB Instruction Cache as well as a Memory Management Unit. A Nexus Class 3
module is also integrated.
