Part IV. Communications Processor Module
¥
Chapter 19, ÒSerial Communications Controllers (SCCs),Ó describes the four serial 
communications controllers (SCC), which can be conÞgured independently to 
implement different protocols for bridging functions, routers, and gateways, and to 
interface with a wide variety of standard WANs, LANs, and proprietary networks. 
¥
Chapter 20, ÒSCC UART Mode,Ó describes the MPC8260 implementation of 
universal asynchronous receiver transmitter (UART) protocol that is used for 
sending low-speed data between devices. 
¥
Chapter 21, ÒSCC HDLC Mode,Ó describes the MPC8260 implementation of 
HDLC protocol. 
¥
Chapter 22, ÒSCC BISYNC Mode,Ó describes the MPC8260 implementation of 
byte-oriented BISYNC protocol developed by IBM for use in networking products. 
¥
Chapter 23, ÒSCC Transparent Mode,Ó describes the MPC8260 implementation of 
transparent mode (also called totally transparent mode), which provides a clear 
channel on which the SCC can send or receive serial data without bit-level 
manipulation. 
¥
Chapter 24, ÒSCC Ethernet Mode,Ó describes the MPC8260 implementation of 
Ethernet protocol.
¥
Chapter 25, ÒSCC AppleTalk Mode,Ó describes the MPC8260 implementation of 
AppleTalk.
¥
Chapter 26, ÒSerial Management Controllers (SMCs),Ó describes two serial 
management controllers, full-duplex ports that can be conÞgured independently to 
support one of three protocolsÑUART, transparent, or general-circuit interface 
(GCI). 
¥
Chapter 27, ÒMulti-Channel Controllers (MCCs),Ó describes the MPC8260Õs multi-
channel controller (MCC), which handles up to 128 serial, full-duplex data 
channels. 
¥
Chapter 28, ÒFast Communications Controllers (FCCs),Ó describes the MPC8260Õs 
fast communications controllers (FCCs), which are SCCs optimized for 
synchronous high-rate protocols.
¥
Chapter 29, ÒATM Controller,Ó describes the MPC8260 ATM controller, which 
provides the ATM and AAL layers of the ATM protocol. The ATM controller 
performs segmentation and reassembly (SAR) functions of AAL5, AAL1, and 
AAL0, and most of the common parts convergence sublayer (CP-CS) of these 
protocols. 
¥
Chapter 30, ÒFast Ethernet Controller,Ó describes the MPC8260Õs implementation of 
the Ethernet IEEE 802.3 protocol.
¥
Chapter 31, ÒFCC HDLC Controller,Ó describes the FCC implementation of the 
HDLC protocol. 
¥
Chapter 32, ÒFCC Transparent Controller,Ó describes the FCC implementation of 
the transparent protocol.
