NXP Semiconductors’ MC56F83xxx digital signal controllers (DSC) family offers peripheral enhancements ideal for high-performance digital power conversion and advanced motor control applications.
The MC56F83xxx DSC family comprises NXP’s performance-level DSCs, extending their feature integration to include support for dual partition Flash, Flash ECC, USB FS OTG, CAN FD and boot ROM. In addition, they offer enhanced DMA function (eDMA), inter-module crossbar (XBAR) with more flexible event generator (EVTG), low-power, high-speed analog-to-digital converters, extended RAM size and up to 16 channels of high-resolution PWM.
The devices have one USB FS/LS 2.0 OTG controller supporting crystal-less operation, and one FlexCAN module supporting CAN FD and CAN 2.0 B protocol, enabling real-time and cost-effective field communication. They are powered by a 32-bit DSP core, with both core and bus speeds up to 100 MHz.
Target applications include digital power application, including switched mode power supply (SMPS), uninterruptible power supply (UPS), photovoltaic systems and power distribution systems; as well as motor control applications, including industrial motor, appliance motor and general single/dual motor control (PMSM, BLDC, SR, stepper).
