Automotive MCU for instrument clusters and HUDs plus more

12-12-2024 | Mouser Electronics | Semiconductors

Mouser now offers the new CYT3DL TRAVEO T2G 32-bit automotive MCU from Infineon Technologies. The MCUs are dedicated to automotive systems, such as instrument clusters and HUDs.

The MCUs provide one of the most scalable safety and graphic MCU portfolios, featuring a 2D graphics engine, sound processing, an Arm Cortex-M7 CPU running up to 240MHz for primary processing, and embedded flash 40nm technology with an Arm Cortex-M0+ CPU for peripheral/security processing. The MCUs include Infineon's low-power flash memory and multiple high-performance analog/digital peripherals to create a secure computing platform, including WVGA GFX, obtainable in two unique packages: 216-pin TEQFP and 272-ball BGA. The family products contain embedded peripherals supporting controller area networks with a flexible data rate (CAN FD), LIN, clock extension peripheral interfaces (CXPI), and Ethernet.

The MCUs' safety mechanisms (including MBIST, ECC Flash/RAM, CRC) support ASIL-B ISO 26262 with state-of-the-art security and secure boot support from a dedicated ARM Cortex-M0+ core, security hardware, and accelerated crypto-graphic functions with futureproof compliant HSM Evita full, for added performance.

The CYT3DL TRAVEO T2Gs provides a dedicated best-in-class standby mode controller with its own voltage domain to not only support low power modes but also to perform certain operations, such as analog measurements, CAN and LIN communications, RTC and basic processing, while the rest of MCU is in standby. The device also provides extensive connectivity with four CAN FD, 2 LINs, two SPIs and new high-speed communicating interfaces such as one 10/100 Ethernet and two CXPIs, operating efficiently below 457mA in active mode and 50uAin in DeepSleep mode with 32KB RAM retention. Its mirrored embedded flash banks provide A/B swap capabilities.
