Overview
This chapter provides an overview of theMPC8240 PowerPC™ integrated processor for
high-performance embedded systems. The MPC8240 is a cost-effective, general-purpose
integrated processor for applications using PCI in networking infrastructure,
telecommunications, and other embedded markets. It can be used for control processing in
applications such as network routers and switches, mass storage subsystems, network
appliances, and print and imaging systems. For errata or revisions to this document, refer
