Four new members of the TMS320C2000 platform are optimised for motor control, digital power conversion and intelligent sensor control.

Continuing to broaden its digital signal controller portfolio, Texas Instruments has announced four new members of the TMS320C2000 platform optimised for motor control, digital power conversion and intelligent sensor control in industrial, appliance, automotive, medical and consumer applications The new controllers include the TMS320F2809 and TMS320F2802 Flash-based controllers and custom ROM-based TMS320C2801 and TMS320C2802

All four new devices are 100% hardware and software compatible with existing TMS320F280x controllers, and they increase the portfolio to seven pin-compatible devices allowing engineers to easily switch controllers for optimised features and cost across a family of products.

The C2000 platform's ROM-based C280x and Flash-based F280x devices feature a patent-pending pulsewidth modulator (PWM) with 150ps resolution, 64 times more precise than competing processors.

TI's full TMS320C28x portfolio now includes 15 high-performan
