Zephyr Engineering is pleased to support Motorola's exciting line of security processors with the ZPC861C Security Application Development Environment. The ZPC861C Development Kit enables developers to implement network security applications with Motorola's MPC860 PowerQUICC communications processor and the MPC184 security processor that are part of Motorola's smart networks platform.

The ZPC861C consists of two components, the MPC860 processor card from Micetek and the MPC184 security processing daughter card from Zephyr. The MPC860 processor card functions as a generic MPC860 resource board. The MPC184 security processing daughter card connects to the 860 local bus through a board to board connector. The MPC184 daughter card is a bus-master design, so it is tightly coupled to the CPU running at 50 MHz. To further facilitate accelerated product development cycles, the ZPC861C kit includes a VxWorks board support package, drivers and diagnostics for the MPC184. The MPC184 drivers are written in ANSI C for portability to other operating systems.
