Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) today introduced a new series of microcontrollers (MCUs) for next-generation industrial and consumer motor control as well as power conversion system applications. This includes home appliances, power tools, renewable energy products, industrial drives, and lighting and computing/telecom power supplies. The new Infineon PSOC™ Control family, based on Arm ® Cortex ®-M33 core, delivers on-board functionality to optimize and accelerate the current measurement, waveform generation and real-time performance operations that play a critical role in target system applications.
“The new Infineon PSOC Control MCUs extend the company’s commitment to delivering performance and efficiency in next-generation motor control and power conversion applications,” said Steve Tateosian, SVP of IoT and Industrial MCUs, IoT, Wireless and Compute Business, Infineon Technologies. “With extensive on-board analog functionality, high performance timers, hardware math acceleration, and a rich design tool ecosystem, the new device family will enable system designers to deliver innovative, energy-saving devices to both high-volume and specialized markets.”
Key specifications of the new MCU family include clock speed of up to 180 MHz, high-performance analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), high-resolution (<100 ps) pulse-width-modulation (PWM) and an integrated CORDIC Accelerator to off-load real-time control tasks from the CPU. CORDIC’s true synchronous “idle” sampling of up to 16 analog signals from the single core ADC is up to 25 percent faster without sampling jitter. This powerful combination of power and performance yields system level bill-of-material (BOM) savings, while the <10 uA deep sleep and <1 uA hibernate modes deliver valuable energy savings for low-power and battery-driven applications.
The Infineon PSOC Control family supports innovative design of power electronics based on wide-band gap (WBG) technologies such as Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN), which can both enhance performance and further reduce BOM costs for the overall system.
