Infineon Technologies PSC3P8xx PSOC™ Control C3 Performance Line MCUs

Infineon Technologies PSC3P8xx PSOC™ Control C3 Performance Line Microcontrollers (MCUs) are high-performance 32-bit MCUs designed for advanced digital power conversion, motor control, and industrial automation (IA) applications. Built around a 180MHz Arm® Cortex®-M33 core with DSP, FPU, TrustZone® security, and 512KB of read-while-write Flash memory, these devices deliver the processing power needed for real-time control systems while maintaining low-power operation. The PSC3P8xx family also integrates a unique Programmable Power Control Accelerator (PPCA) with dual 200MHz Cortex-M33 cores, enabling dedicated processing of complex power-control algorithms and high-speed signal-processing tasks.

The Infineon PSC3P8xx MCUs incorporate four 12-bit, 25Msps SAR ADCs, high-speed differential comparator slope generators with less than 10ns latency, high-resolution PWM modules, hardware filter blocks, CORDIC accelerators, and customizable logic resources. Connectivity options include CAN FD and multiple I2C, SPI, UART, and PMBus-capable serial interfaces. PSA-certified security features help protect system integrity. These capabilities make the devices ideal for AI server power supplies, telecom infrastructure, EV charging systems, solar inverters, silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) power conversion, robotics, drones, and high-efficiency motor-control applications.
