C2000 real-time control MCU for automotive and industrial drive systems
The Texas Instruments TMS320F2812ZHHA is a 32-bit C28x fixed-point MCU clocked at 150 MHz and qualified to AEC-Q100 for automotive environments. It integrates 256 KB of on-chip Flash program memory, 18K x 16 RAM, a 16-channel 12-bit ADC, and peripherals including PWM, CAN, SPI, SCI, and McBSP.
AEC-Q100 Automotive grade — qualified for under-hood and chassis domains
Rated Automotive grade and AEC-Q100 qualified, the TMS320F2812ZHHA is suited for engine management, transmission control, electric power steering, and battery-management systems where the -40°C to 85°C operating range covers cabin and under-hood environments. The qualification means the part has passed the full suite of stress tests (HTOL, ESD, latch-up, temperature cycling) expected for automotive OEM production lines.
On-chip memory and ADC — single-chip sensor-to-actuator path
256 KB of Flash (128K x 16) stores the application firmware and calibration tables; the 18K x 16 RAM holds variable data and stack. The 16-channel 12-bit ADC samples up to 16 analog inputs — current sensors, voltage dividers, resolver feedback — at a combined rate sufficient for three-phase motor control. The internal oscillator and POR reduce external component count.
Connectivity and I/O — CAN, SPI, SCI for industrial and automotive buses
CANbus handles the vehicle or factory network; SPI and SCI (UART) connect to external ADCs, encoders, or a host controller. The 56 general-purpose I/O pins provide enough headroom for local sensor interfaces, relay drivers, and panel indicators without a port expander.
