OREANDA-NEWS. Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO: 6502) today announced that it has added "TMPM384FDFG" to its line-up of TX03 series, ARM Cortex&trade:-M3 core-based microcontrollers. The product integrates a large capacity on-chip memory, additional multi-purpose timer channels and AD converters, and enhanced I/O ports, enabling control of both motor drives and overall systems. Mass production is scheduled to start in November this year.

Motor control applications generally consist of a motor drive unit and a system control unit, both of which integrate a microcontroller and software. The microcontroller will promote development and evaluation of motor control applications with a single microcontroller and software, contributing to more efficient system development and costs.
