Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) has launched the new Automotive PSoC™ 4100S Max family. This microcontroller device family expands Infineon’s portfolio of CAPSENSE™ enabled Human Machine Interface (HMI) solutions for automotive body/HVAC and steering wheel applications by delivering higher flash densities, GPIOs, CAN-FD, and HW-Security.
The Automotive PSoC 4100S Max with fifth generation CAPSENSE technology offering 10x higher sensitivity is available in 100-TQFP (14×14 mm²), 64-TQFP (10×10 mm²) and 48-QFN (7×7 mm²) packages. It is an optimal solution for automotive HMI applications requiring low-power consumption, multiple sensing pins (50+), configurable scan times to optimize the system’s refresh rate, high-speed communication (CAN-FD, I 2C), and dedicated HW-cryptography for enhanced security while offloading the main CPU. This device offers up to 84 GPIOs and 384 KB of flash memory (the largest PSoC4 flash memory in its class).
The Automotive PSoC 4100S Max is AECQ-100 qualified up to 125 °C ambient temperature and also provides support towards ASIL-B (ISO 26262-ready), which helps the integrator to achieve system level compliance for automotive application supported by Infineon’s latest ModusToolbox™ development platform, the devices allow developers an easy implementation for a variety of use cases.
The Arm® Cortex-M0+ Automotive PSoC™ 4 S-Series offers world’s most reliable, lowest-power capacitive-sensing solution
Infineon’s Automotive PSoC™ 4 S-Series is now available with enhanced features, including the Automotive PSoC™ 4100S Max family, which offers a whopping 384KB flash capacity and up to 84 pins of analog and digital GPIO. This family also introduces the latest generation of the CAPSENSE™ IP, the MSC CAPSENSE™, that delivers superior performance and noise immunity.
With the Automotive PSoC™ 4100S Max family, you can take advantage of the enhanced features to implement even more complex applications in your automotive designs. The MSC CAPSENSE™ IP provides better sensing accuracy and faster response times, making it an ideal choice for applications that require reliable and precise touch sensing.
Moreover, the automotive PSoC™ 4100S Max family, has broadened the Automotive PSoC™ 4 portofilio by offering highspeed communications from Fast I2C or CAN-FD and includes in addition a dedicated cryptography block for fast cryptographic functions.
Whether you need advanced analog and digital capabilities, expanded flash capacity, or superior touch sensing, the Automotive PSoC™ 4100S Max Series has got you covered!
