PSOC™ Control C3
PSOC™ Control family of microcontrollers from Infineon are the next-generation MCUs explicitly developed for motor control and power conversion applications. Using real-time control with Arm® Cortex®- M33, this high-performance microcontroller family enables designers to deliver the market innovations customers expect from their next-generation devices. The PSOC C3M family of microcontrollers is designed with motor control applications in mind, offering a programmable timer/counter pulse-width modulator (TCPWM) that has a Motion Interface (MOTIF) block that can be used to communicate motor control signals.
Advance features of the PSOC™ Control microcontroller include our high-performance ADC and integrated CORDIC Accelerator. With true synchronous “idle” sampling of up to 16 analogue signals from the single core ADC, up to 25% faster results is possible without any sampling jitter. The CORDIC Accelerator can off load CPU and increase of computational power for real time critical tasks such as field-oriented motor control algorithms. This unique combination of power and performance will bring the next generation of industrial solutions to market today.
