TI's Sang Chon discusses what the new F2806 MCU means to designers
TI's TMS320F2806x Piccolo floating-point MCU includes a Viterbi Complex Math Unit that accelerates power-line communications (PLC) processing for real-time control and energy-efficient applications. TI's Sangmin Chon discusses its implications.
|
|
It’s hard for MCU vendors to differentiate themselves with devices being introduced by the hundreds each year, but Texas Instruments has done a pretty good job with the new $4.95 TMS320F2806x Piccolo floating-point MCU by inserting 75 new math instructions to handle complex math functions.
By adding this Viterbi Complex math Unit (VCU), TI aims to reduce the space and cost requirements for designers looking to quickly and efficiently add complex math capability, such as that required for PLC, real-time control and energy-efficient applications.
The VCU sits upon a host of features that include an 80-MHz core, a 32-bit floating-point Control Law accelerator (introduced with the Piccolo F2803 line in 2008), full-speed USB 2.0 (host and device), CAN and DMA access, high-resolution, 150-ps PWMs, 3-MSample/s, 12-bit ADCs and three analog comparators with 10-bit reference.
By including floating-point capability with its F280x line-up, TI was responding to customer requests to close the gap between the cost and efficiency-focused Piccolo line and its high-performance Delfino line.
“The higher-end users [of the Piccolo line] wanted floating point, but not 300-MHz performance [and its associated power consumption],” said Sangmin Chon, director of TI’s C2000 MCU marketing group.
The F2806 continues to close that gap and with the VCU, which, according to Chon, can implement full PLC G3 physical-layer processing up to three times faster than a software-based design. It can also accelerate a Viterbi Butterfly and trace-back functions by up to 7x and a 16-bit CRC for block lengths of 10 Bytes at up to 25x faster.
For more on the VCU, its benchmarks, as well as how it works and tips on how to implement and program it, see [insert feature link here].
Pricing and availability:
The F2806 is sampling now in 15 flavors, with memory ranges of 52 to 100 Kbytes of RAM, 128 to 256 Kbytes of flash and options for 80- and 100-pin packages.
Pricing starts at $4.95 each/1000, putting it in the same league as Microchip’s PIC32 line.

eeTechBriefs –
15-Minute on-demand multimedia web casts covering the latest product developments.
Texas Instruments (TI) introduces new Integrated Power Solutions for DC/DC conversion. These products - the TPS8267xstep-down regulator and TPS84620 highly integrated point-of-load solution - feature an integrated inductor and passive components aimed at speeding development time and simplifying power design.
The TPS84620 is a highly integrated point-of-load solution with high density and efficiency and 30% better thermal dissipation compared to competitor solutions. The QFN package combines the inductor and passives onto one device and requires only three external components, making design layout extremely simple. Target applications include broadband and communications infrastructure, along with automated test and medical equipment.
The TPS8267x step-down regulator combines all external components on TI's new MicroSiP™ package - easing design for portable electronics. Plus a unique PWM frequency dithering feature reduces noise and improves performance. The TPS8267x is ideal for use in low-power performance applications, such as cell phones, smart phones, portable audio/video, digital TV, WLAN, GPS, Bluetooth® and portable medical devices.
Join Avnet Electronics Marketing's Chris Cooper for a brief 11-minute overview of both device families, which will include product roadmaps, available products, development tools and technical support offered by Avnet.
The TPS780/781 families of low-dropout (LDO) regulators offer the benefits of ultra-low power, miniaturized packaging and selectable dual-level output voltage levels. These devices are designed to be compatible with TI MSP430 microcontrollers. Because these LDOs are stable with any output capacitor greater than 1.0 µF, implementations of these devices require minimal board space.
Join Pat Hunter from TI for a 7-minute Webcast discussing:
• TPS780xx/781xx LDOs
○ Features
○ Benefits
○ Applications
• Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) with TPS780xx LDOs
• MSP430 “F Version” Active Mode Current (IAM) VCC vs. operating frequency
• Runtime calculations
• Battery-life comparison
In less than 7 minutes, developers will gain an understanding of how to shift to a lower voltage level in a battery-powered design when the microprocessor is in sleep mode, which can reduce overall system power consumption.
Special Offer
Together with Avnet, TI is giving away TPS780xx evaluation modules to the first 25 qualified attendees of this Webcast.
In the portable market, electronic original equipment manufacturers (EOEMs) are challenged to add more and more functionality to smaller, more manageable devices. Texas Instruments (TI) is helping developers achieve this goal by offering a wide selection of Power Management Units (PMUs) power management ICs integrate multiple DC/DC converters and LDOs into one small package.
Join David Arciniega from TI for a 9-minute Webcast discussing:
• TI’s PMU portfolio
• Advantages & disadvantages of an integrated PMU solution
• Examples: Powering the Freescale iMX31 & iMX27processors
• Other supported DSP and processor families
• Design resources
In less than 9-minutes, you’ll gain an understanding of how TI PMUs can simplify the power design process for handheld applications and can meet a variety of design requirements such as dynamic voltage scaling and flexible power-up sequencing.
