What is AURIX™

AURIX™ is the generic name for Infineon's automotive high-performance MCU product family, and TC3xx is the second generation model of the AURIX™ series.

AURIX™ TC3xx is equipped with a CPU that utilizes Infineon's unique 32-bit integrated architecture "TriCore™" with excellent real-time performance. Specially designed for automotive applications, it has high performance and safety, and runs at high speed up to 6 cores and 300MHz. This product satisfies ASIL-D (highest level of functional safety) defined by ISO 26262, and can satisfy EVITA-Full (highest level of security) with the second-generation HSM.

high spec

Advanced applications such as chassis & safety, powertrain & xEV, ADAS (advanced driver assistance system) can be realized.
In addition, large-capacity Flash, high-performance multi-core, and abundant communication interfaces enable system integrators to integrate multiple microcomputers/ECUs on a single chip, thereby reducing costs and substrate size.
In addition, the high-spec features allow sufficient resources to be buffered, and in the future SOTA will be used to add new functions and support system updates.

Functional safety (safety)

"ISO26262" was issued in 2011 because the electronic control system of automobiles has become complicated with the introduction of ADAS, etc., and a higher level of functional safety is required. System integrators must ensure the safety of the system even if a certain function or part fails.

AURIX™ has been specially developed as a Safety Element out of Context (SEooC) that can achieve ASIL-D for the functional safety stipulated by ISO26262, and supports the realization of automotive applications that require a high level of functional safety. .

AURIX™ has safety and test functions such as LockStep, LBIST, MONBIST, and MBIST already implemented in hardware. Based on Infineon's functional safety documentation, system integrators have to implement some safety measures in software.

In response to this, Macnica provides and supports HITEX 's safety solution"SafeTpack", which can reduce the number of man-hours and development time required by our customers, making development easier. Please feel free to contact us for more information.

Security

AURIX™ TC3xx is equipped with a hardware security module (HSM) that supports EVITA-FUll, the highest level of automotive security standards, making it an ideal microcontroller for automotive applications with special requirements for safety functions. .

For customers who have challenges with security requirements, from us ETAS company can be introduced.
In response to the threat of cyberattacks in automotive applications, we provide solutions that consistently support the process of implementation, mass production, and maintenance, from introduction studies such as analysis and issue extraction.
We also hold training and seminars for considering security introduction, so please refer to the ETAS introduction page on the link below for details.
AURIX™ TC3x, TRAVEO™ T2G implemented in each HSMs or existing system MCU If you have a problem such as having to achieve security requirements although you have almost decided to use CycurLIB, CycurHSM A software solution such as

Evaluation Board

Infineon offers multiple evaluation boards to meet the needs of customers who develop using AURIX™.

Lite Kits

Infineon offers Lite kits for customers who touch AURIX™ for the first time.

Although Lite Kits have some limitations such as the number of pins that can be used, it is the most suitable evaluation board for introduction because it is possible to verify the operation of AURIX™ at low cost.

TriBoard Kits

TriBoard Kits are AURIX™ basic general-purpose evaluation boards that allow customers to quickly start software development, evaluation, and testing.

A socket type is also available, and it is suitable for initial development because it is possible to replace the chip if the package is the same product.

Application Kits

AURIX™ also offers evaluation boards specialized for various applications such as gateways and radars.
