• AutoSAR package
1.7 How to use the MPC5606S documents
This section:
• Describes how the MPC5606S documents provide information on the microcontroller
• Makes recommendations on how to use the documents in a system design
1.7.1 The MPC5606S document set
The MPC5606S document set comprises:
• This reference manual (provides information on the features of the logical blocks on the device and
how they are integrated with each other)
• The MPC5606S Microcontroller Data Sheet (specifies the electrical characteristics of the device)
• The device product brief
The following reference documents (available online at www.freescale.com) are also available to support
the CPU on this device:
• Programmer’s Reference Manual for Freescale Embedded Processors
• e200z0 Power Architecture Core Reference Manual
• Variable-Length Encoding (VLE) Programming Environments Manual
The aforementioned documents describe all of the functional and electrical characteristics of the
MPC5606S microcontroller.
Depending on your task, you may need to refer to multiple documents to make design decisions. However,
in general the use of the documents can be divided up as follows:
• Use the reference manual (this document) during software development and when allocating
functions during system design.
• Use the data sheet when designing hardware and optimizing power consumption.
• Use the CPU reference documents when doing detailed software development in assembly
language or debugging complex software interactions.
1.7.2 Reference manual content
The content in this document focuses on the functionality of the microcontroller rather than its
performance. Most chapters describe the functionality of a particular on-chip module, such as a CAN
controller or timer. The remaining chapters describe how these modules are integrated into the memory
map, how they are powered and clocked, and the pinout of the device.
