CACHE MEMORY

L1 Cache

The MPC7448 processor implements two separate 32-kilobyte, level-one (L1) instruction and data caches that are eight-way, set-associative. The L1 supports a four-state modi- fied/exclusive/shared/invalid (MESI) cache coherency protocol. The caches also employ pseudo least-recently-used (PLRU) replacement algorithms within each way.
