Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-core TriCore™ safety microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SAL-TC297TP-128F300N BC | Includes integrated Ethernet PHY (100BASE-T1), adds 2x additional E-Ray channels, larger DFLASH (1 MB) | Targeted for zonal architectures requiring native T1 Ethernet and extended time-triggered networking | Select when native 100BASE-T1 PHY and extra E-Ray bandwidth are required; higher pin count and cost |
| SAL-TC275TP-64F200N DC | Single-core TC1.6P at 200 MHz, 4 MB PFLASH, 384 KB DFLASH, BGA292 package (21 mm × 21 mm) | Designed for ASIL-B/C applications where cost, footprint, and power envelope constrain dual-core adoption | Select for cost-sensitive chassis modules needing functional safety but not full ASIL-D redundancy |
Compared with SAL-TC297TP-128F300N BC, this part omits integrated Ethernet PHY and reduces E-Ray channel count, lowering system BOM cost; versus SAL-TC275TP-64F200N DC, it delivers ASIL-D lockstep, higher clock rate, and double flash capacity for complex safety firmware stacks.

FAQ
What safety certifications does SAL-TC290TP-128F300N BC support?
The SAL-TC290TP-128F300N BC is designed to meet ISO 26262 ASIL-D requirements at the hardware level. It includes lockstep CPU cores, ECC on all memories and buses, built-in self-test (BIST), and error injection capabilities. Infineon provides certified safety manuals, FMEDA reports, and diagnostic software libraries to support functional safety integration.
Does SAL-TC290TP-128F300N BC include an integrated Ethernet PHY?
No. SAL-TC290TP-128F300N BC integrates only the Ethernet MAC layer (10/100 Mbit/s). An external PHY chip is required for physical layer connectivity. For native 100BASE-T1 support, consider SAL-TC297TP-128F300N BC, which integrates a single-port 100BASE-T1 PHY.
What debug interface does SAL-TC290TP-128F300N BC provide?
The device supports JTAG and DAP (Debug Access Port) interfaces compliant with ARM CoreSight. It enables full-core debugging, trace capture via Embedded Trace Macrocell (ETM), and secure debug authentication using unique device identifiers and debug lock bits.
Can SAL-TC290TP-128F300N BC execute code directly from DFLASH?
No. DFLASH is configured exclusively for data storage and EEPROM emulation. Code execution is supported only from PFLASH or internal SRAM (DSPR/PSPR). The memory protection unit (MPU) enforces strict separation between executable and data-only regions to prevent unintended execution.
