FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and how is it achieved?
The CY91F523FSCPMC-GTE1 achieves 80 MHz maximum operation using an on-chip PLL with ×20 multiplication from a 4.0 MHz external crystal connected to XIN/XOUT. This configuration yields a 12.5 ns minimum instruction execution time and supports deterministic real-time control loops without external clock synthesis components.
Does this MCU support CAN FD or only classical CAN 2.0B?
This device supports only CAN 2.0B protocol at up to 1 Mbps across three independent channels. It does not implement CAN FD features such as flexible data-rate, extended data length, or CRC enhancements. For CAN FD requirements, consider Infineon's AURIX TC3xx family or NXP S32K3xx devices.
Is the 64 KB WorkFlash electrically erasable and wear-levelled?
Yes, the 64 KB WorkFlash is a dedicated, electrically erasable flash memory block with endurance rated for ≥100,000 write/erase cycles. It supports page erase (1 KB) and full-block erase, and is managed independently from program flash-enabling reliable data logging and parameter storage without disrupting firmware execution.
What debug interface does CY91F523FSCPMC-GTE1 use and is JTAG supported?
The device uses standard JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) for on-chip debug (OCD), supporting full boundary-scan, real-time trace, and flash programming. Debug access is implemented via dedicated TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO pins and requires no SWD conversion; Cypress/Infineon-provided tools (e.g., MiniProg4, J-Link) provide full visibility into registers, memory, and peripheral states during development.
