TI introduces Delfino
Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) has introduced floating-point microcontroller (MCU) for extreme temperature operation from 55 degree to 210 degree. Exceeding the traditional 150 degree limit for other high-temperature semiconductors, the SM320F28335-HT Delfino 32-bit MCU provides high-reliability, high-performance, real-time measurement and control for manufacturers of electronics operating in harsh and hot environments, such as downhole drilling, commercial jet engines, motor control, military applications, and medical instruments and surgical tools requiring sterilization.
"SM320F28335-HT Delfino MCU is first in the line of microcontroller products by TI's High Reliability group which enables customers to meet specific high-temperature requirements. It allows customers to use some of the latest designs from the TI's High-Temperature product portfolio ranging from amplifiers to complex embedded processors," said Rakesh Joshi, General Manager - Business Development, HiRel Defense & Aerospace, Texas Instruments India.
The SM320F28335-HT Delfino MCU is based on TI's TMS320C2000 MCU platform, which combines control peripheral integration and embedded flash memory with the processing power of a 32-bit floating-point architecture. Enabling operation at up to 210 degree eliminates the need for expensive up-screening and qualification tests of industrial grade MCUs, allowing for faster design of applications operating in harsh environments and cutting development time by up to one year. Packaging options, such as ceramic and Known Good Die (KGD), provide the smallest form factors for space-constrained applications.
