Product details
Overview
SAF-XC164D-8F40F BB from Infineon Technologies is a 16-bit single-chip microcontroller based on the C166SV2 core, featuring 64 KB on-chip Flash, 2 KB DPRAM, 2 KB DSRAM, and 2 KB PSRAM. It operates at 40 MHz CPU clock (25 ns instruction cycle), supports TwinCAN 2.0B with 32 message objects across two nodes, and integrates ASC0/ASC1, SSC0/SSC1, CAPCOM1/2, CAPCOM6, GPT12E, RTC, and JTAG-based OCDS for automotive and industrial motor control applications.
For engineers reviewing the SAF-XC164D-8F40F BB datasheet, SAF-XC164D-8F40F BB pinout, SAF-XC164D-8F40F BB application, or SAF-XC164D-8F40F BB equivalent, key selection criteria include Flash size (64 KB), CAN interface capability (dual-node Full/BASIC CAN), real-time peripheral event controller (PEC) latency (50 ns min interrupt sample rate), and RoHS-compliant 100-pin TQFP package with 0.5 mm pitch.
Technical Context
The SAF-XC164D-8F40F BB implements a 5-stage pipelined C166SV2 CPU with zero-cycle jumps, 1-cycle 16×16 multiply, and 21-cycle 32/16 divide. Its memory subsystem includes linear 16 MB address space, dual-port RAM for concurrent CPU/peripheral access, and Flash with configurable wait states for external bus interfacing.
Peripheral integration centers on deterministic real-time control: TwinCAN supports gateway functionality between two CAN networks; CAPCOM6 delivers flexible PWM generation with up to 6 channels; GPT12E provides five independent timers with capture/compare and reload capabilities; and the PEC enables single-cycle data transfers triggered by 75 interrupt sources.
