PowerPC 740 and PowerPC 750 Embedded Microprocessor
IBM CMOS 0.20 um Copper Technology EMPPC740L and EMPPC750L
Preface
The PowerPC 740 and PowerPC 750 embedded microprocessors are implementations of the PowerPC
TM
family of reduced instruction set computer (RISC) microprocessors. This document covers PowerPC 740 and
PowerPC 750 microprocessors using the IBM CMOS 7S 0.20 um copper technology. In this document, “740”
refers to the PowerPC 740 microprocessor, and “750” refers to the PowerPC 750 microprocessor, with the
document’s primary focus on the features of the 750 microprocessor; however, unless otherwise noted, all
features apply equally to the 740 microprocessor.
The 740 uses the same die as the 750, but the 740 does not pin out the L2 cache interface.
Overview
The 750 is targeted for high performance, low power systems and supports the following power management
features: doze, nap, sleep, and dynamic power management. The 750 consists of a processor core and an
internal L2 Tag combined with a dedicated L2 cache interface and a 60x bus. The L2 cache is not available
with the 740.
Figure 1 shows a block diagram of the 750.
