Overview

TMS320F28063UPFPS from Texas Instruments is a 90-MHz C28x-core real-time microcontroller with integrated FPU, CLA, and 12-bit 3.46-MSPS ADC, designed for closed-loop motor control and digital power conversion in industrial inverters and EV charging modules.

For engineers reviewing the TMS320F28063UPFPS datasheet, TMS320F28063UPFPS pinout, TMS320F28063UPFPS application, or TMS320F28063UPFPS equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package mapping to 80-pin HTQFP (PFP), ePWM/CLA/ADC timing roles, and validated alternatives for servo drive and solar inverter designs.

Technical Context

The TMS320F28063UPFPS implements a Harvard-architecture C28x CPU with atomic instruction execution, unified memory model, and deterministic interrupt latency under 6 CPU cycles. Its dual 16-bit ePWM timer modules support high-resolution dual-edge modulation for HRPWM-capable channels.

On-chip peripherals include a VCU-accelerated CRC engine, three analog comparators with internal 10-bit references routed directly to ePWM trip zones, and a DMA-accessible ADC with dual sample-and-hold supporting simultaneous sampling across up to 16 channels at 289 ns conversion time.

Key Specifications

Pinout & Package

80-pin PowerPAD™ HTQFP (PFP) package with 12.0 mm × 12.0 mm body size and exposed thermal pad. The PowerPAD must be soldered to the PCB ground plane via thermal vias for effective heat dissipation; it is not electrically connected to internal VSS.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency and instruction cycle time of the TMS320F28063UPFPS?

The TMS320F28063UPFPS operates at a maximum CPU frequency of 90 MHz, delivering an instruction cycle time of 11.11 ns. This timing is guaranteed across the full –40°C to 105°C temperature range and supports deterministic execution of control algorithms with sub-microsecond jitter, critical for SiC/GaN-based power stage modulation.

Does the TMS320F28063UPFPS include a floating-point unit and control law accelerator?

Yes, the TMS320F28063UPFPS integrates both a native single-precision floating-point unit (FPU) and a programmable Control Law Accelerator (CLA). The CLA executes control code independently of the main C28x CPU, enabling parallel processing of PID, FOC, or observer routines without compromising real-time responsiveness of the primary control loop.

What are the ADC performance specifications of the TMS320F28063UPFPS?

The TMS320F28063UPFPS features a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter with dual sample-and-hold capability, achieving 3.46 MSPS throughput and 289 ns conversion time. It supports up to 16 input channels with ratio-metric VREFHI/VREFLO referencing, enabling accurate current/voltage measurement in noisy power electronics environments.

Which package type and thermal requirements apply to the TMS320F28063UPFPS?

The TMS320F28063UPFPS uses an 80-pin PowerPAD™ HTQFP (PFP) package with 12.0 mm × 12.0 mm body size. Its exposed thermal pad must be soldered to the PCB ground plane using thermal vias-this is mandatory for thermal management, as the pad is not electrically connected to internal VSS but provides the primary heat dissipation path.

How many ePWM channels and HRPWM-capable outputs does the TMS320F28063UPFPS support?

The TMS320F28063UPFPS provides 14 ePWM output channels across 7 modules, with 8 of those channels supporting high-resolution PWM (HRPWM) mode. HRPWM delivers 150-ps resolution for precise edge placement-essential for minimizing dead-time errors and optimizing efficiency in high-frequency GaN/SiC power converters.
