Infineon SAK-TC233LP-32F200N 32-Bit AURIX™ Microcontroller for High-Performance Automotive Applications

The evolution of modern automotive systems demands microcontrollers that deliver exceptional computational power, real-time responsiveness, and uncompromising functional safety. The Infineon SAK-TC233LP-32F200N AC stands at the forefront of this technological shift, representing a pinnacle of engineering within Infineon's AURIX™ TC23x family. This 32-bit microcontroller is architected specifically to meet the rigorous requirements of next-generation automotive applications, from advanced powertrains and chassis systems to emerging electric vehicle (EV) and autonomous driving platforms.

At the core of the SAK-TC233LP-32F200N is a high-performance TriCore™ CPU system. This innovative architecture integrates three powerful CPU cores that operate in lockstep, providing the redundant processing essential for ASIL-D (Automotive Safety Integrity Level D) compliance—the highest level of functional safety standard defined by ISO 26262. This capability is non-negotiable for systems where failure is not an option, such as electric power steering, airbag control, and advanced braking systems.

Beyond raw processing power and safety, the microcontroller is engineered for robust connectivity and control. It features a rich set of peripheral modules including multiple CAN FD (Flexible Data-Rate) interfaces, which are critical for high-speed communication within vehicle networks, and a versatile General Purpose Timer Array (GPTA) for complex waveform generation and precise motor control. This makes it an ideal solution for managing the intricate algorithms of electric motors in EVs or sophisticated engine management in conventional vehicles.

Security is another cornerstone of its design. In an era of connected cars, the SAK-TC233LP-32F200N incorporates advanced hardware security modules (HSM) to protect against cyber threats, ensuring secure communication and data integrity. Furthermore, its design emphasizes low power consumption without sacrificing performance, a crucial balance for electric vehicles where energy efficiency directly impacts range.
