Product details
Overview
SPC5668EK0VMG from NXP Semiconductors is a 32-bit dual-core Power Architecture microcontroller featuring an e200z650 CPU (up to 116 MHz) and e200z0 I/O processor (58 MHz), 2 MB on-chip flash, 128 KB ECC SRAM, 32-channel eDMA, 5 FlexCAN modules, 32-channel eMIOS200 timers, and 64 internal + 32 external ADC channels. It targets automotive body control, gateway, and chassis domain controllers requiring ASIL-B functional safety support.
For engineers reviewing the SPC5668EK0VMG datasheet, SPC5668EK0VMG pinout, SPC5668EK0VMG application, or SPC5668EK0VMG equivalent, key selection criteria include its 256-ball MAPBGA package, -40 °C to 105 °C temperature grade, integrated Cross-Triggering Unit for synchronized ADC conversions, and absence of Ethernet/FlexRay-distinguishing it from MPC5668G variants.
Technical Context
The SPC5668EK0VMG implements a dual-core architecture with tightly coupled e200z650 (main application core) and e200z0 (dedicated I/O co-processor), sharing memory via a crossbar switch and coordinated by a 316-vector INTC. Its FMPLL supports frequency modulation for EMI reduction, and system clocks include 4–40 MHz XTAL, 32 kHz crystal, and internal 16 MHz/128 kHz RC oscillators.
It integrates a 16-entry Memory Protection Unit (MPU), Cross-Triggering Unit (CTU) enabling hardware-synchronized ADC triggers from eMIOS200 timers or FlexCAN events, and five independent FlexCAN 2.0B modules with 64 configurable mailboxes-optimized for multi-bus automotive network topologies without requiring external transceivers.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the SPC5668EK0VMG?
The SPC5668EK0VMG features an e200z650 CPU core rated for static operation up to 116 MHz, with the companion e200z0 I/O processor running at up to 58 MHz. This frequency is guaranteed across the full -40 °C to +105 °C ambient temperature range and includes support for frequency modulation via the FMPLL to reduce electromagnetic interference in automotive environments. The SPC5668EK0VMG achieves this performance while maintaining ASIL-B compliance through built-in ECC and lockstep-capable peripherals.
Does the SPC5668EK0VMG include Ethernet or FlexRay interfaces?
No, the SPC5668EK0VMG does not include Fast Ethernet Controller (FEC) or FlexRay interfaces. These features are present only in the MPC5668G variant (e.g., MPC5668GF1AVMJ4). The SPC5668EK0VMG is optimized for CAN/LIN/I2C-centric automotive applications and instead emphasizes enhanced real-time capabilities including a 16-entry MPU, Cross-Triggering Unit, and 32-channel eDMA-making it ideal for body control and gateway functions where Ethernet/FlexRay are not required.
What package type and pin count does the SPC5668EK0VMG use?
The SPC5668EK0VMG uses a 256-ball MAPBGA package measuring 17 mm × 17 mm with 0.8 mm ball pitch. It is Pb-free and supplied in tape-and-reel format (denoted by the 'R' suffix in ordering codes). This package supports full Nexus Class 3 debug capability and provides dedicated power/ground banks, analog supply isolation (VDDA/VSSA), and voltage regulator control pins (VRCCTL/VRCSEL)-all verified in the MPC5668X Rev. 7 datasheet Figure 4 ball map.
How many CAN controllers does the SPC5668EK0VMG integrate?
The SPC5668EK0VMG integrates five independent FlexCAN 2.0B modules, each configurable with up to 64 mailboxes for transmit or receive operations. This enables concurrent communication across multiple CAN networks-for example, separate buses for body, chassis, powertrain, comfort, and diagnostics-without software arbitration overhead. Each module supports bit rates up to 1 Mbps and includes hardware filtering, FIFO modes, and error counters essential for automotive network reliability.
What safety features does the SPC5668EK0VMG provide for ASIL-B compliance?
The SPC5668EK0VMG includes multiple hardware safety mechanisms required for ISO 26262 ASIL-B decomposition: ECC protection on both 2 MB flash and 128 KB SRAM, a 16-entry Memory Protection Unit (MPU) for runtime memory access enforcement, a Cross-Triggering Unit (CTU) for deterministic peripheral synchronization, and an Error Correction Status Module (ECSM) for fault reporting. These features-documented in the MPC5668X datasheet sections 4.5, 4.12, and 4.11-are integral to the silicon and require no external components to achieve ASIL-B integrity.
