The TMS570 microcontroller family enables customers to easily build safety related transportation applications. Offered with large configurations of Flash and RAM, the TMS570 ARM® Cortex™-R4F core offers up to 160 MHz of floating point performance, more than 250 DMIPS. Dual core lockstep, extensive use of hardware BIST, ECC and parity checking have allowed Exida to certify the TMS570 family as capable for use in creating SIL3 compliant systems. A wide choice of communication peripherals like CAN and FlexRay, in combination with a powerful timing coprocessor module (HET) and 12-bit ADC, makes the family an ideal solution for the transportation industry with specific safety requirements.

The TMS570 microcontroller family is  ideal for a variety of transportation applications including brakiny systems (ABS and ESC), electric power steering (EPS), HEV/EV inverter systems, battery management systems, and radar driver assistance, as well as safety related automotive, aerospace, railway communications, off road vehicles. 

The TMS570LS series is a high performance automotive grade microcontroller family which has been certified for use in IEC 61508 SIL3 safety systems. The safety architecture includes Dual CPUs in lockstep, CPU and Memory Built-In Self Test (BIST) logic, ECC on both the Flash and the data SRAM, parity on peripheral memories, and loop back capability on peripheral IOs.

The TMS570LS family integrates the ARM® Cortex™-R4F Floating Point CPU which offers an efficient 1.6 DMIPS/MHz, and has configurations which can run up to 160 MHz providing more than 250 DMIPS. The TMS570LS series also provides different Flash (1MB or 2MB) and data SRAM (128KB or 160KB) options with single bit error correction and double bit error detection.
