Product details
Overview
SPC560P40L1BEFBR from STMicroelectronics is a 32-bit Power Architecture® e200z0h-based automotive MCU with 256 KB on-chip Flash (ECC-protected), 20 KB SRAM (ECC), and 64 MHz CPU clock, designed for chassis and safety-critical systems including airbag controllers and brake control units.
For engineers reviewing the SPC560P40L1BEFBR datasheet, SPC560P40L1BEFBR pinout, SPC560P40L1BEFBR application, or SPC560P40L1BEFBR equivalent, key selection criteria include FlexCAN 2.0B compliance with safety port capability, LINFlex dual-channel support, and 10-bit ADC with <1 µs conversion time for real-time sensor monitoring in ASIL-B–capable architectures.
Technical Context
The SPC560P40L1BEFBR implements a single-issue e200z0h core compliant with Power Architecture® embedded category and supports Variable Length Encoding (VLE) for code density optimization. It integrates a crossbar switch (XBAR) for concurrent peripheral access and an enhanced DMA (eDMA) controller with 16 channels to offload CPU during high-bandwidth data transfers.
Its fail-safe architecture includes a programmable software watchdog timer (SWT), non-maskable interrupt (NMI), and fault collection unit (FCU) for runtime error detection. The safety port-based on FlexCAN with 32 message buffers and up to 8 Mbit/s throughput at 64 MHz-enables dual-role CAN functionality without external arbitration logic.
