Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today unveiled its newest additions to the C2000™ Piccolo™ microcontroller (MCU) portfolio. With streamlined performance, the new C2000 F28004x MCU family is optimized for power-control in cost-sensitive applications such as on-board chargers for electric vehicles (EVs), inverters for motor control, and industrial power supplies. By adding this new family of real-time control devices that integrate a floating-point unit, math accelerators and an optional parallel processor, the C2000 Piccolo MCU portfolio continues to set industry standards by boosting the performance of its 100-MHz central processing unit (CPU). For more information, see www.ti.com/C2000Piccolo-pr.
Developers can reduce bill-of-material (BOM) costs while building smaller, more reliable systems by taking advantage of the industry-leading integrated analog of the C2000 Piccolo F28004x MCUs, which offer system protection and new capabilities to enable development of high-performance power-control systems. The integrated analog features include three independent 12-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) with post-processing hardware, advanced synchronization capabilities and programmable gain amplifiers, along with a sophisticated comparator and digital-to-analog converter subsystem and a sigma-delta filter interface.
Key features and benefits of the new C2000 F28004x MCUs
The new C2000 Piccolo F28004x MCU builds on the generational improvements introduced in the Delfino™ F2837x and Piccolo F2807x series. These new real-time control solutions offer code compatibility with existing Piccolo MCUs, allowing customers to take advantage of the new family’s unique combination of premium performance in an affordable offering.
Pricing, package and availability
Developers can evaluate the new C2000 F28004x MCUs with the F280049 experimenter kit (TMDXDOCK280049M) available for US$209.00 through the TI store and authorized distributors.
Production quantities of the C2000 F28004x MCUs are available in a 64-pin LQFP package, starting at US$4.85 in 1,000-unit quantities.
