Product details
Overview
CY8C3446AXI-105 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress Semiconductor) is a programmable 8-bit PSoC® 3 system-on-chip integrating an 8051 CPU, 64 KB flash, 8 KB RAM, full CAN 2.0b interface, USB 2.0 Full-Speed peripheral, and configurable analog/digital peripherals on a single die. It operates from 1.71–5.5 V across –40 to +85 °C, supports up to 50 MHz clocking via internal PLL, and targets embedded control in industrial sensing and automotive body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C3446AXI-105 datasheet, CY8C3446AXI-105 pinout, CY8C3446AXI-105 application, or CY8C3446AXI-105 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 68-pin QFN package, dual opamps with programmable gain amplifier (PGA) capability, CapSense® support for up to 62 sensors, 24-channel DMA controller, and integrated 12-bit delta-sigma ADC with 1.024 V ±1% reference.
Technical Context
The CY8C3446AXI-105 implements a highly configurable mixed-signal architecture centered on an enhanced 8051 core running at up to 50 MHz, backed by a 24-channel PHUB-based DMA controller and flexible digital routing via Digital System Interconnect (DSI). Its analog subsystem includes two independent opamps, four comparators, and two programmable SC/CT blocks supporting TIA, PGA, and mixer topologies.
It integrates full CAN 2.0b with 16 Rx and 8 Tx buffers, USB 2.0 FS (12 Mbps) using internal oscillator, and a 12-bit delta-sigma ADC with configurable resolution and input range. Clocking is managed through multiple sources: IMO (3–62 MHz), ILO (1/33/100 kHz), external crystal (4–25 MHz), and 32.768-kHz watch crystal - all routed via 12 programmable dividers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar programmable mixed-signal microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY8C3866AXI-063 | Higher flash (128 KB), same 68-pin QFN, but lacks USB FS interface and has reduced CAN buffer count (8 Rx/4 Tx). | Better suited for firmware-intensive applications without USB connectivity requirements. | Select when larger code space is critical and USB/CAN bandwidth demands are lower. |
| STM32F303VCT6 | ARM Cortex-M4F core, 256 KB flash, 48 KB RAM, no integrated CapSense® or SC/CT analog blocks. | Requires external components for capacitive sensing and precision analog front-end design. | Prefer when floating-point math, higher clock speed (>72 MHz), or RTOS scalability outweighs analog integration benefits. |
Compared with CY8C3446AXI-105, CY8C3866AXI-063 trades USB and CAN capacity for doubled flash, while STM32F303VCT6 offers superior compute performance but increases analog BOM and layout complexity due to missing on-die mixed-signal configurability.

FAQ
Does CY8C3446AXI-105 support USB device enumeration without external crystal?
Yes. The device integrates an internal oscillator certified for USB 2.0 Full-Speed (12 Mbps) operation per TID#40770053, eliminating the need for an external 48 MHz crystal. This oscillator achieves ±0.25% accuracy across voltage and temperature, meeting USB specification jitter requirements for reliable enumeration and data transfer.
What is the maximum operating frequency of the 8051 core in CY8C3446AXI-105?
The 8051 core runs at up to 50 MHz, achieved via internal PLL multiplication of the IMO (Internal Main Oscillator) or external crystal input. At this frequency, instruction execution reaches 25 MIPS with single-cycle 8051 instructions, enabling real-time processing of CAN messages, ADC conversions, and CapSense® scans concurrently.
Can the two opamps be used simultaneously with the delta-sigma ADC?
Yes. Both opamps can operate concurrently with the 12-bit delta-sigma ADC, as they share independent bias and routing paths. Each opamp may serve as a programmable gain amplifier ahead of ADC inputs, and the ADC supports simultaneous sampling on up to 16 channels using hardware sequencer control - verified in the device's Electrical Specifications table (Section 11.5).
Is the 68-pin QFN package RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes. The CY8C3446AXI-105 68-pin QFN package is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, with matte tin (Sn) termination finish. It meets JEDEC J-STD-020D moisture sensitivity level 3 (MSL-3) and is qualified for reflow soldering per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 standards, ensuring compatibility with standard SMT assembly processes.
