Overview

CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 16-bit F2MC-16FX microcontroller with dual CAN 2.0A/B controllers, 288 KB on-chip Flash, 12 KB RAM, and 51 I/O pins in 64-pin LQFP. It features an on-chip PLL enabling 56 MHz CPU operation from a 4 MHz resonator, 10-bit SAR ADC with 15 channels, and programmable pulse generators for motor control timing. Used in automotive body electronics and industrial CAN gateway modules.

For engineers reviewing the CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 datasheet, CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 pinout, CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 application, or CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-CAN channel count, Flash sector protection, clock modulation for EMI reduction, real-time clock calibration, and peripheral clock domain independence.

Technical Context

The CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 implements the F2MC-16FX CPU core with instruction pipeline and 23 addressing modes, delivering 17.8 ns minimum instruction cycle time at 56 MHz. Its clock tree supports independent CPU and peripheral clock domains using main oscillator (3–16 MHz), sub-oscillator (32–100 kHz), or internal RC (100 kHz/2 MHz).

Dual CAN interfaces are ISO 16845 certified, support bit rates up to 1 Mbit/s, 32 message objects each with individual identifier masks, and programmable FIFO/loop-back modes. The 10-bit SAR ADC operates in single, continuous, or stop conversion modes with external trigger or reload timer activation.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency of the CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 CPU core?

The CPU core achieves a maximum operating frequency of 56 MHz using the on-chip PLL with a multiplication factor up to x25. This is attainable from a 4 MHz external ceramic resonator or quartz crystal. At this speed, the minimum instruction cycle time is 17.8 ns, confirmed in the Rev. *D datasheet Section 4.3 (AC Characteristics). The PLL supports dynamic switching and stop modes for power optimization.

Does the CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 support CAN FD or only classical CAN?

The CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 supports only Classical CAN (ISO 11898-1:2015), compliant with CAN 2.0A and 2.0B protocols. It does not implement CAN FD features such as flexible data-rate, extended data length, or CRC enhancements. Bit rates are limited to 1 Mbit/s, and message objects are fixed at 11-bit or 29-bit identifiers with 8-byte payloads, as specified in Section 10.3 of the datasheet.

How many analog input channels does the integrated ADC support, and what reference voltage options are available?

The integrated 10-bit SAR ADC supports 15 analog input channels (AN0–AN14), with dedicated pins mapped to Port 5 and Port 6. Reference voltage is supplied externally via AVRH pin; AVCC and AVSS provide separate analog supply rails. No internal reference voltage generator is present - the device requires an external precision reference or uses AVCC as default, as documented in Section 12.4 (Analog Digital Converter) and Pin Function Description Table on page 7.

Is the CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 pin-compatible with earlier Cypress 16LX-series MCUs?

Yes, the CY96F356RSBPMC1-GS-UJE2 is pin-compatible with the F2MC-16LX family CY90350 series in the same 64-pin LQFP package (LQG064/LQD064), as explicitly stated in the datasheet Pin Assignments section (page 6). This enables drop-in replacement for legacy designs, preserving PCB layout while upgrading to higher Flash, dual CAN, and improved power efficiency.
