The Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium has publicised certified benchmark scores for the TC1796, the first member of the TriCore-based AUDO-NG family of automotive microcontrollers from Infineon Technologies.
Tested against AutoBench 1.1, EEMBC's suite of automotive/industrial processor benchmarks, the 150 MHz TC1796 achieved a score of 100 Automarks, the highest recorded value for a device in this frequency range. The Automark score is the geometric mean of the 16 benchmark kernels in AutoBench, which include tests representing signal processing, communications, and general-purpose microcontroller workloads typical of automotive and industrial systems.
"These benchmark scores provide an excellent approximation of how this device will handle computationally intensive tasks required by automotive applications," said Markus Levy, EEMBC president. "The fact that these scores are certified lends an extra level of credibility to the information that Infineon is providing its customers."
The TC1796, part of Infineon's AUDO-NG family, is optimised for applications requiring embedded realtime performance and DSP capabilities combined with a fast interrupt response time and high level of fault tolerance. The TC1796 features 2 MB of embedded flash and on-chip peripherals including Micro Second Bus, Fast ADC, and Micro Link Interface. Its triple bus structure is intended to boost overall automotive system performance while reducing system costs.
