Product details
Overview
C505CALMCAFXUMA1 from Infineon Technologies is an 8-bit single-chip microcontroller based on the enhanced 8051 architecture, featuring a 10-bit ADC, 1 KB on-chip XRAM, 32 KB mask-ROM, and integrated Full-CAN 2.0B controller. It operates up to 20 MHz (300 ns instruction cycle), supports four priority-level interrupts, and targets automotive and industrial real-time control systems requiring robust CAN communication and analog sensing.
For engineers reviewing the C505CALMCAFXUMA1 datasheet, C505CALMCAFXUMA1 pinout, C505CALMCAFXUMA1 application, or C505CALMCAFXUMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 10-bit ADC resolution, 32 KB ROM capacity, Full-CAN compliance at 1 MBaud, P-MQFP-44 package compatibility with C501/C511 families, and support for software power-down with wake-up via P3.2/INT0 or P4.1/RXDC.
Technical Context
The C505CALMCAFXUMA1 implements a superset of the 8051 ISA with eight datapointers and three 16-bit timers-including Timer 2 with four capture/compare channels. Its Full-CAN module includes 256 bytes of dedicated register/data memory mapped into external data space and uses an internal prescaler for CAN clock generation when system frequency exceeds 10 MHz.
It integrates an on-chip 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with up to eight analog inputs, programmable watchdog timer (15-bit), oscillator watchdog, fast power-on reset, and three low-power modes: slow-down, idle (combinable with slow-down), and software power-down with selective wake-up capability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core Architecture | Enhanced 8051 with 8 datapointers; enables efficient pointer arithmetic for complex data structures and buffer management. |
| Max Operating Frequency | 20 MHz; delivers 300 ns instruction cycle time for deterministic real-time response in control loops. |
| Program Memory | 32 KB mask-ROM; provides fixed, tamper-resistant firmware storage suitable for production automotive ECUs. |
| XRAM Size | 1 KB on-chip extended RAM; eliminates need for external RAM in mid-complexity applications like body control modules. |

| CAN Compliance | Full-CAN 2.0B; handles 256 message objects with hardware filtering and automatic retransmission for robust bus arbitration. |
| Package | P-MQFP-44; surface-mount quad flat package with 0.8 mm lead pitch, compatible with standard C501/C511 PCB footprints. |
Pinout & Package
P-MQFP-44 (Plastic Metric Quad Flat Package, 44 pins, 10 × 10 mm body, 0.8 mm lead pitch), thermally optimized for industrial and automotive ambient ranges (–40 °C to +125 °C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| XTAL1 / XTAL2 | Crystal oscillator input/output | Supports external quartz crystal (1–20 MHz) or ceramic resonator; internal oscillator circuit enables stable clock source without external components. |
| RESET | Active-low reset input | Asynchronous reset with internal pull-up; accepts external push-button or supervisor IC signal for controlled initialization. |
| EA | External access enable | Low = execute from external program memory; high = execute from on-chip ROM; enables seamless boot mode selection. |
| ALE | Address latch enable | Strobes lower byte of address during external memory access; used to latch P0 as AD0–AD7 in multiplexed bus mode. |
| PSEN | Program store enable | Output strobe for external ROM read cycles; active-low during opcode fetch from external memory space. |
| VAREF | Analog reference voltage input | Configurable reference for 10-bit ADC (typically tied to VDD or external precision reference); sets full-scale conversion range. |
| P3.2 / INT0 | External interrupt 0 input | Dual-function pin supporting edge-triggered wake-up from power-down mode; critical for event-driven low-power operation. |
| P4.1 / RXDC | CAN receive data input | Dedicated CAN physical layer input; connects directly to CAN transceiver RXD line for hardware-synchronized message reception. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip Full-CAN 2.0B controller | Hardware-accelerated message handling with 256-byte register space, eliminating CPU overhead for CAN protocol stack execution. |
| 10-bit successive-approximation ADC | Eight analog inputs with programmable sampling rate and conversion trigger sources (timer, software, external), enabling closed-loop analog feedback without external ICs. |
| Three 16-bit timers with capture/compare | Timer 2 supports four independent PWM or input-capture channels-ideal for motor control timing, pulse-width measurement, and encoder decoding. |
| On-chip emulation support (Enhanced Hooks) | Enables non-intrusive debugging via JTAG-like interface without halting real-time operation or consuming code space. |
| Software power-down mode with wake-up | Reduces current consumption to µA-range while retaining RAM content; wake-up via P3.2/INT0 or P4.1/RXDC supports CAN bus activity detection. |

FAQ
What is the maximum CAN baud rate supported by C505CALMCAFXUMA1?
The device supports up to 1 MBaud on the CAN bus when operating frequency is ≥8 MHz. At 20 MHz system clock, the internal CAN prescaler ensures accurate bit timing; actual achievable rate depends on bus length, termination, and transceiver characteristics-verified in Infineon's AN2001 application note.
Does C505CALMCAFXUMA1 require an external crystal to operate?
No-it supports both external crystal/resonator (via XTAL1/XTAL2) and external clock input (applied to XTAL1 with XTAL2 grounded). Internal oscillator circuitry is self-contained; no external capacitors needed for clock generation in basic configurations.
How is the 10-bit ADC calibrated or configured?
ADC offset and gain calibration are factory-trimmed and stored in on-chip ROM; users configure resolution, channel selection, and trigger source via special function registers (SFRs) ADCCON0/ADCCON1. No runtime calibration routine is required for typical accuracy specifications (±2 LSB INL).
Can C505CALMCAFXUMA1 operate in extended temperature ranges?
Yes-this part is qualified for –40 °C to +125 °C (SAK-grade), verified per AEC-Q100 stress test requirements. The P-MQFP-44 package and internal thermal protection circuitry maintain functional integrity across this full automotive under-hood range.
