Product details
Overview
CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 from Cypress Semiconductor is a 16-bit F2MC-16LX microcontroller with dual FULL-CAN interfaces (CAN 2.0A/B), 256 KB Flash ROM, 8 KB RAM, and 100-pin LQFP package. It operates at up to 16 MHz system clock (via on-chip PLL ×4), delivers 62.5 ns minimum instruction execution time, and targets automotive body control modules requiring robust CAN communication and real-time I/O handling.
For engineers reviewing the CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 datasheet, CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 pinout, CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 application, or CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-CAN channel support, Flash programmability with block protection, 8/10-bit 8-channel ADC with 26.3 µs conversion, and 81 general-purpose I/O ports with flexible peripheral mapping.
Technical Context
The CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 implements the proprietary F2MC-16LX CPU core with 32-bit accumulator, 23 addressing modes, and enhanced C-language support including barrel shift and system stack pointer. Its dual CAN controllers operate independently at up to 1 Mbps, each supporting mixed mailbox/FIFO buffering and automatic retransmission on error.
Peripheral subsystems include four 8/16-bit PPG timers, eight 16-bit input capture channels, four 16-bit output compare channels, two 16-bit reload timers, full-duplex UART0/UART1 with synchronous/asynchronous modes, and an external bus interface supporting up to 16 MB address space - all synchronized to a configurable multi-clock domain (main PLL + 32 kHz sub-clock).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit automotive microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon XC2267M-104F80L | TriCore™ 32-bit core, 80 MHz max, 1 MB Flash, single CAN, integrated Ethernet MAC | Targets higher-performance gateway applications requiring TCP/IP stack; lacks dual CAN and 81 GPIO count | Select when Ethernet connectivity or >16-bit processing headroom is required; not drop-in for CY90F546GSPFR-GE1's dual-CAN I/O layout |
| Renesas RL78/F13 | 16-bit RL78 core, 32 MHz max, 256 KB Flash, single CAN, 64-pin QFP, 51 GPIO | Optimized for ultra-low power (0.42 µA sleep); insufficient I/O and CAN channel count for dual-bus body control | Prefer for battery-powered modules where CAN count and GPIO density are secondary to energy efficiency |
Compared with XC2267M-104F80L and RL78/F13, the CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 uniquely balances dual CAN, 81 I/O, and Flash-based field-upgradability in a thermally robust LQFP-100 package - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, high-I/O automotive ECUs where dual-network isolation is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum CAN bit rate supported by CY90F546GSPFR-GE1?
The CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 supports CAN bit rates up to 1 Mbps per channel, fully compliant with ISO 11898-1:2003 (CAN 2.0A/B). This is achieved using the on-chip CAN controllers' programmable bit timing registers and validated with external transceivers such as TJA1042T/3. The dual-channel architecture allows simultaneous operation at independent bit rates.
Does CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 support in-system programming of Flash memory?
Yes - CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 supports full in-system programming via its embedded Flash algorithm, including Write, Erase, Erase-Suspend, and Erase-Resume commands. Programming is initiated through dedicated command registers and verified using completion flags; no external programmer is required beyond standard JTAG or serial boot loader interfaces.
What is the operating voltage range for CY90F546GSPFR-GE1?
CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 operates over 4.5 V to 5.5 V, as specified in the MB90540G/545G Series datasheet Rev. *B (Page 6, Note *3). This range ensures compatibility with standard 5 V automotive power domains and supports stable operation under load dump and cold-crank conditions when paired with appropriate regulators.
How many general-purpose I/O pins does CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 provide?
CY90F546GSPFR-GE1 provides 81 general-purpose I/O pins, confirmed in the Pin Assignment section (Pages 7–8, PQH100/LQI100 top views). All pins are individually configurable as input/output or peripheral function (e.g., UART, CAN, ADC), with schmitt-trigger inputs and push-pull outputs - enabling direct interface with switches, LEDs, and sensors without external conditioning.
