Features: This book introduces the features and structure of MPC860/850, as well as the development of MPC860/850 embedded application systems in the Linux environment. It provides a detailed hardware design guide, circuit diagrams, and circuit analysis for MPC860/850 embedded application systems. The book also covers the composition, implementation, and modification of the MPCBDM cross-debugging tool. It offers a thorough analysis of the boot process of the target board's boot program and the Linux kernel after power-on, and explains how to modify the boot program based on hardware design and how to trim and compile the embedded Linux kernel. Additionally, the book provides steps for creating a RAM version of PPCBOOT and methods for adding or removing Busybox features. It also introduces the writing of device driver modules under the Linux operating system. For MPC860/850 embedded systems, the book includes examples of device driver modules and test programs. At the end, it presents several application examples of MPC860/850 in embedded systems. This book serves as a reference for hardware and low-level software design of Linux-based MPC860/850 embedded systems. It holds high practical value for embedded system software and hardware developers and can also be used as an introductory and advanced tutorial for students and teachers in related fields at universities. Readers of this book should have some hardware design skills, proficiency in C language, and a basic understanding of assembly language and embedded systems.
