SPC58NE84C3
The SPC58NE84C3 is a high-performance microcontroller from STMicroelectronics, part of the SPC58xx family based on the Power Architecture core. It features an 800 MHz Power ISA 2.06 compliant processor, delivering robust computational power suitable for advanced automotive and industrial applications. The device includes a dual-core architecture with a main core running at up to 800 MHz and a secondary core dedicated to safety-critical tasks, enabling efficient real-time processing and fault-tolerant operation.
This microcontroller integrates a comprehensive set of peripherals, including multiple CAN FD interfaces, Ethernet MAC, SPI, I2C, and UARTs, supporting seamless communication in complex embedded systems. It also provides extensive memory resources: up to 8 MB of flash memory and 1 MB of SRAM, ensuring ample space for firmware, data storage, and runtime operations. The integrated memory protection unit (MPU) enhances system security by defining access rights for different memory regions.
Designed for harsh environments, the SPC58NE84C3 supports industrial temperature ranges (-40°C to +125°C) and features robust EMI/EMC compliance, making it ideal for automotive engine control units (ECUs), powertrain systems, and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS). Its built-in safety mechanisms include error-correcting code (ECC) for memory, watchdog timers, and hardware-based diagnostic functions to meet ASIL-B and ASIL-D requirements per ISO 26262 standards.
The device incorporates a sophisticated clock management system with multiple frequency sources and phase-locked loops (PLLs), allowing flexible configuration for optimal power efficiency and performance. Additionally, it supports low-power modes such as sleep, deep sleep, and stop, which are essential for extending battery life in portable or energy-sensitive applications.
With its rich peripheral set, high reliability, and compliance with automotive safety standards, the SPC58NE84C3 serves as a versatile solution for next-generation electronic control systems requiring deterministic behavior, high throughput, and secure operation.
