About This Book
The primary objective of this user’s manual is to define the functionality of the MCF5307
processors for use by software and hardware developers.
The information in this book is subject to change without notice, as described in the
disclaimers on the title page of this book. As with any technical documentation, it is the
readers’ responsibility to be sure they are using the most recent version of the
documentation.

Audience
This manual is intended for system software and hardware developers and applications
programmers who want to develop products for the MCF5307. It is assumed that the reader
understands operating systems, microprocessor system design, basic principles of software
and hardware, and basic details of the ColdFire architecture.
Organization
Following is a summary and a brief description of the major sections of this manual:
• Chapter 1, “Overview,” includes general descriptions of the modules and features
incorporated in the MCF5307, focussing in particular on new features.
• Part I is intended for system designers who need to understand the operation of the
MCF5307 ColdFire core.
— Chapter 2, “ColdFire Core,” provides an overview of the microprocessor core of
the MCF5307. The chapter begins with a description of enhancements from the
V2 ColdFire core, and then fully describes the V3 programming model as it is
implemented on the MCF5307. It also includes a full description of exception
handling, data formats, an instruction set summary, and a table of instruction
timings.
— Chapter 3, “Hardware Multiply/Accumulate (MAC) Unit,” describes the
MCF5307 multiply/accumulate unit, which executes integer multiply,
multiply-accumulate, and miscellaneous register instructions. The MAC is
integrated into the operand execution pipeline (OEP).
