Are the ColdFire processors PowerPC-compatible?

0

No, they are not. ColdFire processors are compatible with the 68k processors. The main ColdFire processor instruction set is a subset of the 68060 instruction set. It has been common practise in case of each new processor from the 68k family: some instructions are reduced in the new processor in order to gain better performance.
