Automotive PSOC™ 4 S-Series
High-quality capacitive sensing solution with the highest reliability and the lowest power consumption
Automotive PSOC™ 4 S-Series subcategories
Infineon's Automotive PSoC™ 4 S series with its 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M0+ microcontrollers consists of five different product families: PSoC™ 4000S, PSoC™ 4100S, PSoC™ 4100S Plus, PSoC™ 4100S Max, and PSoC™ 4700S Plus. This MCU series extends the portfolio by offering higher flash and SRAM capacity, as well as additional features like crypto, CAN FD, and the latest generation of capacitive sensing technology.
With the introduction of a new fifth generation of the popular CAPSENSE™ technology in PSoC™ 4100S Max, the products are enabled to provide superior SNR and a very low noise floor, as well as high-speed scanning of multiple sensor nodes while maintaining sufficient processing capacity to implement a complete HMI application.
The S series also provides the industry’s first microcontroller with inductive sensing and capacitive sensing technology in a single chip through its PSoC™ 4700S Plus family. The inductive sensing technology enables the sensing of metal objects and the industry-leading capacitive sensing technology (CAPSENSE™) enables the sensing of non-metallic objects.
Key features and system benefits of Automotive PSoC™ 4 S series
The Automotive PSoC™ 4 S series is a highly advanced microcontroller unit that offers maximum memory, smart I/O integration, and a wide range of features, making it an ideal choice for demanding applications. With up to 384 KB flash and 32 KB SRAM, the MCU provides ample storage for complex programs. Furthermore, it supports up to 84 analog and digital GPIO pins, offering flexible connectivity options for a wide range of applications.
The Automotive PSoC™ 4 S series features dual MSC CAPSENSE™ blocks, which support multiple data collection methods, including touch, resistive, and current sensors. The blocks offer superior noise immunity with SNR (>300:1) and inductive sensing that can detect metal deflection under 190 nm. The inductive-sense software component automatically calibrates the solution to compensate for manufacturing variations, offering support for up to four sensors.
The Automotive PSoC™ 4 S series also includes a variety of on-chip peripherals, CAN, CAN FD, TX I2S, fast I2C, and segment LCD, as well as TCPWM x8 and SCB x5. The MCU also features enhanced cryptography with a dedicated hardware security block to support AES, SHA, TRNG, PRNG, and CRC functions.
