Product details
Overview
SPC560B40L3B4E0X from STMicroelectronics is a 32-bit automotive MCU based on the Power Architecture® e200z0h core, operating at 64 MHz with 60 DMIPs performance and Variable Length Encoding (VLE). It integrates 256 KB ECC-protected Code Flash, 64 KB Data Flash, 48 KB SRAM, six FlexCAN 2.0B interfaces, and a dedicated diagnostic module for lighting control in body electronics systems.
For engineers reviewing the SPC560B40L3B4E0X datasheet, SPC560B40L3B4E0X pinout, SPC560B40L3B4E0X application, or SPC560B40L3B4E0X equivalent, key selection criteria include its -40 to 125 °C operating range, LQFP100 package with 75 GPIOs, time-triggered PWM/ADC synchronization, and Nexus2+ debug support for safety-critical automotive development.
Technical Context
This MCU implements a deterministic real-time architecture with dual-clock domain operation: a high-speed domain (up to 64 MHz via FMPLL) for CPU and peripherals, and a low-speed domain (32 kHz SXOSC or 128 kHz SIRC) for RTC and standby monitoring. The cross-triggering unit (CTU) enables precise synchronization between PWM generation and ADC sampling-critical for LED current regulation and diagnostics.
Interrupt handling supports 16 priority levels with non-maskable interrupt (NMI), 34 external interrupt sources (18 of which serve as wakeup lines), and hardware-assisted context switching. Memory protection is enforced by an 8-entry MPU, while ECC coverage extends across all Flash and SRAM banks to meet ASIL-B requirements.
