MPC8315E-RDB Reference Platform
Overview
The MPC8315E-RDB reference platform is
ideal for hardware and software development
of the two-drive consumer network
attached storage (NAS) and the digital
media server. The cost-effective MPC8315E
communications processor family meets the
requirements of several small office/home office
(SOHO), triple-play converged residential
gateway and industrial control applications.
It leverages Freescale’s highly integrated
MPC8315E processor, built on Power
Architecture
external components—2 x Gigabit Ethernet,
4 x USB, 2 x Serial ATA (SATA), dual Legerity
SLIC, PCI Express
and an Ethernet connection to broadband
powerline capability using DS2. The high level
of integration in the MPC8315E helps to lower
overall system costs, improve performance
and simplify board design. The MPC8315E
microprocessor supports dual 10/100/1000
Mbps Ethernet controllers, single 64-bit
PCI controller, 2 x PCI Express, integrated
security engine, USB 2.0 with PHY integrated,
4-channel direct memory access (DMA), dual
universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter
(DUART), serial peripherals, general-purpose
I/O and system timers. The introduction of
Gigabit Ethernet (SGMII), High-Speed USB 2.0
and low-power management make it unique in
the marketplace.

On powering up, the Linux system runs on the

generation takes advantage of the Linux
Target Image Builder (LTIB)—a suite of
tools that leverages existing open source
configuration scripts and source code
packages and bundles them all into a single
BSP generation bundle. The source code
packages include boot loaders and Linux
kernel sources, as well as many user-space
source code packages, to build a complete

packages required to build the BSP. Freescale
developers use the LTIB to create BSPs
for a multitude of Freescale development
markets. The LTIB leverages as many BSP
elements as possible for all Freescale markets
supported, while offering the flexibility
necessary to customize components that
require platform-specific modifications. Many
third-party applications are available for the
MPC8315E-RDB. They are typically built
on top of the BSP delivered by Freescale
and are installed on the hard disk. To see
