Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc. (TAEC) today added two new devices to its TX04 series of microcontrollers (MCUs) based on the high-performance ARM® Cortex®-M4F processor. The TMPM470FDFG and TMPM475FDFG are designed for high-efficiency operation in home appliances, factory automation systems and industrial applications. The TMPM470FDFG and TMPM475FDFG can operate at up to 120MHz, and both MCUs incorporate two modules, each containing a programmable motor driver, 12-bit AD converter and Vector Engine (VE) technology, a hardware-based vector control processor for motor control applications that offers effective motor control together with low component count and power consumption. As a result, each has the ability to provide efficient single-chip operation of two DC brushless motors simultaneously.

Both MCUs come housed in a 14mm x 14mm LQFP100 package with 0.5mm pitch, and each incorporates a high-speed interactive pulse width modulator, a 10-channel 16-bit timer, and direct memory access. The devices operate at 4.5 to 5.5V and feature 512KB Flash and 34KB SRAM internal memories. Sample shipments of the TMPM470FDFG and TMPM475FDFG MCUs will commence in February, with mass production set to begin in the third quarter of calendar 2015.
