The microcontrollers are based on a 608 CoreMark, 180-MHz ARM Cortex-M4 CPU core. They come equipped with up to 1 MByte of on-chip flash memory and up to 192 kBytes of SRAM with a 16-kByte flash accelerator.
The devices provide Error-Correcting Code (ECC) support, and include a hardware watchdog timer (WDT), low-voltage detect, and clock supervisor blocks for safety-critical applications.
The S6E2G-Series also supports a digital and analog subsystem that features a variety of high-end peripherals and communication modules, including IEEE 1588Ethernet, CAN, a hardware-based Crypto Assist Module, serial communication interfaces (USB, UART, CSIO (SPI), I²C, LIN), as well as and up to 153 general-purpose inputs and outputs (GPIOs), advanced control peripherals, 12-bit analogue-to-digital converters (ADCs), and a Quadrature Position/Revolution Counter.
The S6E2G-Series is supported by the FM4 S6E2GM Pioneer Kit, which enables rapid development of high-performance embedded systems using an Arduino Uno-compatible interface to connect to Arduino shields for low-cost hardware expansion.
The Pioneer board’s peripherals include an accelerometer and phototransistor, a stereo codec, and multi-color LEDs, plus a microphone jack, line-in jack, and headphone jack.
Cypress’ FM4 S6E2G-Series microcontrollers are available now at Mouser Electronics in both 144-pin and 176-pin LQFP packages, and operate over a temperature range of -40 to +105 degrees Celsius. The devices are ideally-suited for a broad array of motor control, factory automation, industrial, home appliance and Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
