14.3.6 Execution from RAM
The CP has an option to execute microcode from a portion of user RAM located in the dual-port RAM. In
this mode, the CP fetches instructions from both the dual-port RAM and its own private ROM. This mode
allows Freescale to add new protocols or enhancements to the PowerQUICC II in the form of RAM
microcode packages. If preferred, the user can obtain binary microcode from Freescale and load it into the
dual-port RAM.
14.3.7 RISC Controller Configuration Register (RCCR)
The RISC controller configuration register (RCCR), as shown in Figure 14-3 , configures the CP to run
microcode from ROM or RAM and controls the CP’s internal timer.
