Product details
Overview
MC56F8002VWLR from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Freescale) is a 16-bit digital signal controller (DSC) built on the 56800E core, delivering up to 32 MIPS at 32 MHz. It integrates DSP and MCU functionality with 12 KB flash, 2 KB unified RAM, dual 12-bit ADCs, six PWM outputs, two PGAs, three analog comparators, SCI, SPI, I²C, RTC, and COP watchdog-targeting cost-sensitive motor control, power conversion, and industrial sensing applications.
For engineers reviewing the MC56F8002VWLR datasheet, MC56F8002VWLR pinout, MC56F8002VWLR application, or MC56F8002VWLR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin LQFP package, 1.8–3.6 V operation, –40 °C to 125 °C temperature range, integrated analog front-end for sensor/motor feedback, and JTAG/EOnCE debug support for real-time embedded development.
Technical Context
The MC56F8002VWLR implements a dual-Harvard 56800E core with three parallel execution units enabling up to six operations per instruction cycle. Its architecture supports hardware DO/REP loops, four 36-bit accumulators, and a single-cycle 16×16 MAC-optimized for both C-compiled control code and low-level DSP routines.
Peripherals are tightly synchronized: the PDB triggers PGA and ADC conversions with sub-microsecond precision; PWM modules support center-aligned output with independent deadtime, fault protection, and phase shifting; and dual 12-bit ADCs achieve up to 400 KSPS with simultaneous sampling and PWM synchronization.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital signal controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC56F8012VWLR | 16 KB flash (vs. 12 KB), same peripherals, identical 48-pin LQFP package | Better suited for larger control firmware or future-proofing with extra code space | Select when firmware size exceeds 12 KB or requires field-upgradable features |
| MPC5602DVLHR | Power Architecture core, 48 MHz, 128 KB flash, CAN interface, different peripheral set and toolchain | Targets automotive-grade systems requiring CAN, higher performance, and ASIL-B compliance | Choose only if CAN connectivity, extended temperature grade, or ISO 26262 alignment is mandatory |
Compared with MC56F8002VWLR, MC56F8012VWLR offers more flash without changing layout or firmware architecture, while MPC5602DVLHR introduces CAN and automotive qualification at the cost of increased complexity, power, and toolchain divergence.

FAQ
What is the maximum ADC sampling rate supported by the MC56F8002VWLR?
The MC56F8002VWLR supports up to 400 KSPS for 10- or 12-bit conversions and 470 KSPS for 8-bit results. This rate is achievable when using internal triggers (e.g., PWM sync or PDB) and optimized ADC configuration-enabling high-fidelity current sensing in motor drives and power converters. The MC56F8002VWLR's dual ADC architecture allows simultaneous sampling across multiple channels.
Does the MC56F8002VWLR support CAN bus communication?
No, the MC56F8002VWLR does not include a CAN controller or physical layer interface. Its serial interfaces are limited to SCI (with LIN slave mode), SPI, and I²C. For CAN-enabled alternatives within the same family, engineers should consider the MPC56xx series-not the 56F800x DSC line. The MC56F8002VWLR is intended for applications where CAN is unnecessary or implemented externally.
What package type and pin count does the MC56F8002VWLR use?
The MC56F8002VWLR uses a 48-pin LQFP package (7 mm × 7 mm, case number 932-03) with exposed pad. This package provides full access to all 40 GPIO lines, dual ADC inputs, six PWM outputs, and all communication peripherals. It is RoHS-compliant and rated for industrial temperature range (–40 °C to +125 °C).
How does the programmable gain amplifier (PGA) in the MC56F8002VWLR improve analog measurement accuracy?
The MC56F8002VWLR integrates two PGAs with 1×–32× gain, offset calibration, and gain calibration features. These allow direct amplification of low-level sensor signals (e.g., shunt voltage, thermocouple outputs) before ADC conversion-reducing noise susceptibility and eliminating external op-amp stages. Calibration data is applied in software to correct ADC results, ensuring consistent accuracy across temperature and unit variance.
Is the MC56F8002VWLR pin-compatible with the MC56F8006VWLR?
Yes-the MC56F8002VWLR and MC56F8006VWLR share identical pinouts, package dimensions, and peripheral mappings in the 48-pin LQFP variant. The primary difference is flash size (12 KB vs. 16 KB); all I/O, analog, timer, and communication functions are functionally identical. Firmware developed for MC56F8006VWLR will run on MC56F8002VWLR if code size fits within 12 KB.
