Product details
Overview
MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 16-bit F2MC-16FX microcontroller with integrated CAN 2.0A/B controller, 12-channel 8/10-bit SAR ADC, dual-operation Flash (128.5KB + 32KB), 48–50 GPIOs, and stepping motor controller supporting two channels with 4 high-current outputs each. It operates up to 32 MHz via internal PLL (×1–×8) driven by 4–8 MHz resonator and targets automotive body control modules requiring real-time CAN communication and motor actuation.
For engineers reviewing the MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2 datasheet, MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2 pinout, MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2 application, or MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2 equivalent, key selection criteria include CAN protocol compliance (ISO16845), dual-bank Flash for safe firmware updates, subclock RTC with calibration, low-voltage detection (programmable threshold), and hardware watchdog with window function - all validated in Infineon's CY96670 Series documentation.
Technical Context
The MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2 implements the F2MC-16FX CPU core with 8-byte instruction queue, barrel shifter, and signed multiply/divide instructions, delivering 31.2 ns minimum instruction cycle time at 32 MHz. Its clock tree supports independent domain selection: CPU from PLL/main oscillator, peripherals from main/sub/RC clocks, enabling simultaneous high-speed computation and low-power subsystem operation.
Peripheral integration includes a dedicated stepping motor controller with two synchronized 8/10-bit PWMs per channel, internal prescaling (1/4–1/16), and separate high-current power supply; plus LIN-capable USARTs with automatic header handling, I²C up to 400 kbps, and 32-message-object CAN with FIFO mode, loop-back test, and disabled auto-retransmission for time-triggered use cases.

| CAN_TX0 / CAN_RX0 | CAN differential transmitter/receiver | Direct connection to external CAN transceiver; supports bit rates up to 1 Mbps with ISO16845 timing compliance |
| COM0–COM3 / SEG3–SEG56 | LCD segment/com drive outputs | Drives up to 4COM × 24SEG LCD with selectable bias (1/2–1/4), internal voltage generation, and timer-based display refresh |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MB96F675RBPMC1-GSE2 | Same F2MC-16FX core, identical peripherals, but 128.5KB + 32KB Flash and 50 GPIOs in same LQFP-64 package | Higher Flash capacity supports larger bootloader + application partitioning; extra GPIOs simplify board layout for complex I/O routing | Select when firmware size exceeds 128 KB or when additional general-purpose I/O is required beyond 48 pins |
| MB96F673ABPMC1-GSE2 | Pin-compatible variant without CAN interface; retains all other peripherals including SMC, ADC, and RTC | Used where CAN is unnecessary (e.g., standalone motor control or sensor concentrators), reducing cost and EMI design complexity | Select for non-CAN applications to avoid unused CAN PHY routing and associated EMC filtering components |
Compared with MB96F673ABPMC1-GSE2 (no CAN) and MB96F675RBPMC1-GSE2 (higher Flash/I/O), the MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2 uniquely balances CAN 2.0B support, stepping motor control, and 128.5 KB Flash in a standard LQFP-64 footprint - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained automotive body electronics.

FAQ
What clock sources does the MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2 support for the CPU and peripherals?
The device supports three independent clock domains: CPU can run from PLL-multiplied main clock (4–8 MHz input → up to 32 MHz), while peripherals may be clocked separately from main oscillator, 32.768 kHz subclock, or 100 kHz/2 MHz on-chip RC oscillator. This allows concurrent high-speed processing and low-power subsystem operation - confirmed in Section 3.2 of Rev. *D datasheet.
Does the MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2 support time-triggered CAN communication?
Yes. The CAN controller supports disabled automatic retransmission mode, enabling deterministic time-triggered behavior per ISO 11898-1. Message transmission timing is controlled via software-scheduled TX requests and configurable message object priorities - verified in Section 8.4.3 of the CY96670 datasheet.
How is Flash security implemented on the MB96F673RBPMC1-GSE2?
Flash Security is enforced via a dedicated protection register that disables external read access to Flash contents. Once enabled, read attempts via serial programming interface return dummy data. Security activation is irreversible without chip erase - documented in Section 10 and Section 14.8 of the datasheet under "Flash Security feature".
Can the stepping motor controller drive unipolar stepper motors?
No. The integrated stepping motor controller is designed exclusively for bipolar stepper motors, providing two full-bridge outputs per channel with complementary PWM control and current limiting. Unipolar motor support would require external driver ICs - stated explicitly in Section 7.10.1 of the datasheet under "Stepping Motor Controller".
