Secondary (L2) Cache Support

MPC8260 PowerQUICC II Family Reference Manual, Rev. 2

Freescale Semiconductor

12-5

In ECC/parity mode the L2 cache can support memory regions with ECC/Parity under the following
restrictions:

All non-write-protected (BRx[WP] = 0) memory banks marked caching-allowed must use either
ECC (BRx[DECC] = 0b11) or read-modify-write parity (BRx[DECC] = 0b10). See

Section 11.3.1, “Base Registers (BRx),

for more information about the PowerQUICC II base

register parameters.

Only PowerQUICC II-type masters are supported in systems that use ECC/parity L2 cache mode.
See

Section 11.9, “External Master Support (60x-Compatible Mode),

for more information about

external master types.

Figure 12-3. shows a PowerQUICC II connected to an MPC2605 integrated L2 cache in ECC/Parity
mode.
