Infineon Technologies MB96F693ABPMC-GSE2

Overview

MB96F693ABPMC-GSE2 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 16-bit F2MC-16FX microcontroller with integrated CAN 2.0B interface, 8/10-bit 27-channel ADC, dual-operation Flash (128.5KB + 32KB), 8KB RAM, and stepping motor controller supporting 4-channel high-current drive. It operates at up to 32MHz CPU frequency via on-chip PLL, delivers 31.2ns instruction cycle time, and targets automotive body control modules requiring real-time CAN communication and motor actuation.

For engineers reviewing the MB96F693ABPMC-GSE2 datasheet, MB96F693ABPMC-GSE2 pinout, MB96F693ABPMC-GSE2 application, or MB96F693ABPMC-GSE2 equivalent, key selection criteria include CAN protocol compliance (ISO16845), dual-bank Flash for safe firmware updates, subclock RTC calibration, LIN-USART with 16-byte FIFO, and hardware watchdog with window function.

Technical Context

The MB96F693ABPMC-GSE2 implements the F2MC-16FX RISC-like architecture with 8-byte instruction queue, barrel shifter, and 23 addressing modes-enabling direct migration from F2MC-16LX software. Its clock tree supports independent domain configuration: CPU runs at up to 32MHz (via PLL ×8 from 4–8MHz resonator), while peripherals select from main clock, subclock (32.768kHz), or RC oscillator (100kHz/2MHz).

It integrates ISO16845-certified CAN with 32 message objects, programmable FIFO mode, and disabled automatic retransmission for time-triggered operation. The stepping motor controller includes two synchronized 8/10-bit PWMs per channel, internal prescaling (1/4 to 1/16), and dedicated high-current drivers-enabling direct connection to bipolar stepper motors without external H-bridges.

FAQ

Does MB96F693ABPMC-GSE2 support AUTOSAR Basic Software modules?

Yes-it provides hardware features required by AUTOSAR MCAL: ISO16845-certified CAN controller with message object FIFO, DMA-capable USART/LIN, hardware watchdog with window function, and Flash security for protected memory access. However, AUTOSAR OS and BSW must be licensed separately from third-party vendors.

What is the maximum operating temperature range for this MCU?

The MB96F693ABPMC-GSE2 is rated for −40°C to +105°C ambient temperature (Grade 2 automotive), validated per AEC-Q100 Rev G. This rating applies to all electrical characteristics including CAN timing, ADC accuracy, and Flash write/erase endurance at full temperature range.

Can the on-chip voltage regulator be bypassed for external power supply?

No-the internal voltage regulator is fixed-function and cannot be disabled or bypassed. It supplies regulated core voltage (1.8V) from Vcc (2.7–5.5V), enabling wide input range operation and reducing external component count. External regulators are unnecessary unless supplying analog AVcc/AVss domains separately.

Is the stepping motor controller capable of microstepping?

No-the integrated SMC supports only full-step and half-step excitation modes via its four high-current outputs and synchronized PWMs. Microstepping requires external indexer or external microstepping driver ICs; however, the 16-bit PPG and ADC timing capture enable precise open-loop acceleration/deceleration profiling.
