Cortex M4 based MCU tackles industrial tasks

The XMC4500 32-bit microcontroller uses a 120 MHz Cortex-M4 core and has up to 1 MByte of flash and 160 Kbytes of RAM. It features four 12-bit A/D converters with 500 ns conversion time and two 12-bit D/A converters.

The chip targets industrial applications with four delta sigma demodulator modules, six capture/compare units, two positioning interface modules, and a module for eight touch buttons. It has up to four PWM modules with 150 ps resolution plus an IEEE 1588-compatible Ethernet MAC, USB 2.0, CAN, and SD/MMC interfaces. (Approximately 5 Euro in production qty – production March.)
