1. Overview of the MOTIX™ Series
MOTIX™ is the general name for Infineon's motor control IC product line, ranging from simple gate drivers to integrated devices that include a microcontroller, MOSFET, power supply IC, and communications in a single package.
We offer a lineup for a wide range of motor ratings and applications.
The diagram below shows the functions included in each series, but on this page we will introduce the MOTIX™ MCU, an embedded power IC.
Please also take a look at the page introducing the MOTIX™ series.
2. Main Features and Lineup of MOTIX™ MCUs
feature
Infineon's MOTIX™ MCU is a power IC that incorporates a 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M-based microcontroller in relay, half-bridge, H-bridge, and three-phase bridge drivers. It features a current-controlled output stage, flexible charge and discharge current settings, and several diagnostic functions, optimizing the system. It also improves overall system reliability with advanced diagnostic functions, reducing space and energy consumption through a single package, and contributes to overall cost reduction with a minimum of external components.
| Integrated Arm Core: | MOTIX™ MCUs integrate a powerful Arm® Cortex®-M CPU for high-performance computing |
| Small package: | Transceiver, driver, etc. are integrated into a single package, resulting in a very small footprint |
| Wide range of applications: | Supports BDC and BLDC motor control up to 1kW for body, comfort and thermal management applications |
| Advanced Protection: | Overcurrent, overvoltage, and overtemperature protection ensures system durability and reliability |
| Design flexibility: | Reduce design complexity with a scalable product portfolio and integrated motor control software |
lineup
The MOTIX™ MCU lineup is divided into relay, half-bridge, H-bridge, and 3-phase bridge models, and we offer a variety of products to meet your required specifications, such as LIN and CAN communications, and functional safety levels.

Block Diagram
The MOTIX™ MCU series integrates all the functions required to sense, control, and drive motors in a single package: an Arm® Cortex®-M based microcontroller, non-volatile flash memory, analog and mixed-signal peripherals, LIN or CAN(FD) communication interfaces, and the driver stages required for relay, half-bridge, or H-bridge DC, and BLDC motor applications.
It is designed for sub-1kW BDC and BLDC motor control in body, comfort, and thermal management applications, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring a small package and minimal external components.
3. Application
The MOTIX™ MCU series is suitable for a wide range of motor drives, from thermal management applications (pumps, fans, valves, blowers) to door-mounted motors that improve vehicle comfort.
It has been used in modules, closure systems, seat applications, etc.
