Microcontrollers (MCUs) & processors

The TMS320F28003x (F28003x) is a member of the C2000™ real-time microcontroller family of scalable, ultra-low latency devices designed for efficiency in power electronics, including but not limited to: high power density, high switching frequencies, and supporting the use of GaN and SiC technologies. These include such applications as: Motor drives Appliances Hybrid, electric & powertrain systems Solar & EV charging Digital power Body electronics & lighting Test & measurement The real-time control subsystem is based on TI’s 32-bit C28x DSP core, which provides 120 MHz of signal-processing performance for floating- or fixed-point code running from either on-chip flash or SRAM. The C28x CPU is further boosted by the Floating-Point Unit (FPU), Trigonometric Math Unit (TMU), and VCRC (Cyclical Redundancy Check) extended instruction sets, speeding up common algorithms key to real-time control systems. The CLA allows significant offloading of common tasks from the main C28x CPU. The CLA is an independent 32-bit floating-point math accelerator that executes in parallel with the CPU. Additionally, the CLA has its own dedicated memory resources and it can directly access the key peripherals that are required in a typical control system. Support of a subset of ANSI C is standard, as are key features like hardware breakpoints and hardware task-switching. The F28003x supports up to 384KB (192KW) of flash memory divided into

The AM263x Sitara™ Arm® Microcontrollers are built to meet the complex real-time processing needs of next generation industrial and automotive embedded products. The AM263x MCU family consists of multiple pin-to-pin compatible devices with up to four 400-MHz Arm® Cortex®-R5F cores. The multiple Arm® cores can be optionally programmed to run in lock-step option for different functional safety configurations. The industrial communications subsystem (ICSS) enables integrated industrial Ethernet communications such as PROFINET IRT, TSN, or EtherCAT® (among many others), or for standard Ethernet connectivity or custom I/O interfacing. The family is designed for advanced motor control and digital power control applications with advanced analog modules. The multiple R5F cores are arranged in cluster with 256KB of shared tightly coupled memory (TCM) along with 2MB of shared SRAM eliminating the need for external memory. Extensive ECC is included on on-chip memory, peripherals, and interconnect for enhanced reliability. Cryptographic acceleration and secure boot are also available on AM263x devices in addition to granular firewalls managed by the HSM for developers to design the most secure systems. TI provides a complete set of microcontroller software and development tools for the AM263x family of microcontrollers.

Jacinto™ 7 DRA829 processors, based on the Arm®v8 64-bit architecture, provide advanced system integration to enable lower system costs of automotive and industrial applications. The integrated diagnostics and functional safety features are targeted to ASIL-B/C or SIL-2 certification/requirements. The integrated microcontroller (MCU) island eliminates the need for an external system MCU. The device features a Gigabit Ethernet switch and a PCIe hub which enables networking use cases that require heavy data bandwidth. Up to four Arm Cortex-R5F subsystems manage low level, timing critical processing tasks leaving the Arm Cortex-A72’s unencumbered for applications. A dual-core cluster configuration of Arm Cortex-A72 facilitates multi-OS applications with minimal need for a software hypervisor.
