ITC order confusion: ColdFire affected?

Why does the ITC order only affect iMX and Dragonball? What about the MCF52259 and other ColdFire parts that come in that same package?

Try to find the data sheet of the MCF52259 on this web site. The only thing you get is...

Because of an order from the United States International Trade Commission, certain BGA-packaged product lines and part numbers are not available from Freescale Semiconductor for sale or import into the United States. To comply with this order, some pages have been temporarily removed from the web site.

Great when you're desperately looking for info on the part!

This is getting crazy... apparently MQX and Coldfire Lite are now no longer available for download either because of the same reason. I don't see what those software products have to do with the use of a specific type of BGA chip package...

Yeah, major problems for me to. I need to get my hands on some other MCF52259 application details. I am not even using the BGA version and I am not in the US!

I am working through creating a bootloader and having major problems finding information on various things related to the MCF52259.

Marc, if you drop me a PM with your email, I will email you the data sheet.

Can anyone locate the MCF52259 USB Bootloader project files? I have the M52259LAB for USB Bootloader, but I dont have the boot loader application...
