At the Embedded World show in Germany, Infineon Technologies introduced its TC1130 microcontroller, the company's first high-volume TriCore derivative capable of running the full-featured Linux operating system for industrial and communications applications.
The 32-bit TC1130 is designed for use in programmable logic control (PLC) systems, high-performance motor drive systems, industrial communications devices, such as switches, hubs and routers, and consumer applications, such as set-top boxes.
Based on the company's TriCore unified processor architecture, the TC1130 extends the 32 bit MCU family by offering an on-chip memory management unit (MMU) and floating point unit (FPU), well-targeted on-chip peripherals, and a clock rate up to 150 MHz. At 200 MIPS, Infineon claims the average performance of the TC1130 exceeds other currently available industrial MCUs by a factor of three.
With a Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) controller, four CAN nodes and a USB module, industrial systems can be easily connected to control systems and networks, as well as offer true realtime, deterministic operation. The integrated FPU and MMU also support the use of the increasingly popular Linux or RTAI Linux operating systems.
The TC1130 includes 144 Kbytes of on-chip RAM, a 64 bit high-performance local memory bus that provides fast access between caches and external memories, and Infineon's flexible peripherals interface bus for enhanced on-chip communications.
