Infineon PSC3M6/P6 MCUs: One 180 MHz Cortex-M33 Runs Four BLDC Motors, Adds Post-Quantum Secure Boot Infineon has added two new parts to the main line of its PSOC Control C3 motor and power microcontrollers. The PSC3M6 is for motor control and the PSC3P6 is for power conversion. The headline features are that one 180 MHz Arm Cortex-M33 can now run up to four brushless DC motors, sensored or sensorless, and that firmware verification uses post-quantum cryptography in line with the US CNSA 2.0… |

Renesas Takes Its RX MCUs to 600 MHz and Swaps Flash for MRAM With the New 22nm RX74M and RX74N Renesas has launched the RX74M and RX74N, the first RX-family microcontrollers built on a 22nm process and the first to use embedded MRAM instead of conventional flash. Both run an RXv3e core at up to 600 MHz, and Renesas says they deliver more than twice the performance of the 240 MHz RX72M and RX72N they succeed. The RX74M targets factory automation gear like AC drives, industrial robots and… |
