PhoenixMicro Training Course: "Designing with MPC5674F"
MPC57xx 32-bit MCU
he MPC574xP MCU family features a 32-bit embedded Power Architecture. It meets the highest functional safety standards for automotive and industrial functional safety applications.
- Integrated safety architecture minimizes additional software and development churn.
- Programmable Fault Collection and Control Unit (FCCU) monitors the integrity status of the device and provides flexible safe state control.
- End-to-End Error Correcting Code (e2eECC) improves fault tolerance and detection.
- Part of the SafeAssure program, helping manufacturers achieve functional safety standard compliance.
Audience
The MPC574xP architectural training course is designed for software, hardware, firmware, test engineers, and developers who want to build and test automotive and industrial applications with the highest functional safety standards.
Managers, system architects, and project leaders, are also encouraged to attend the class for an in-depth understanding of the SoC device.
Course Agenda
The class will cover both the hardware and software aspect of the device. Each topic is self-contained. That is, both hardware and software materials are included to make the topic complete. The class consists of lectures and exercises.
- Overview of the MPC574xP silicon system and Roadmap.
- Learn the e200z4 core Power Architecture programming model, register types, Embedded Floating Point (eFPU2),Lightweight Signal Processing Unit (LSP), and Variable Length Encoding (VLE)
- Review e200z4 core instruction set, branches, subroutine calls, simplified mnemonics, including the new SPE instruction features.
- Write efficient exception service routines for the e200z4 core and Interrupt Controller (INTC) by understanding the innovative exception processing function with built-in interrupt priorities, separate critical, non-critical resources using HW or SW vector mode.
- Configure and optimize the e200 L1 cache with new APU cache locking instructions.
- Initialize the improved and simplified Memory Protection Unit (MPU) to perform address translation, access control, and protection.
- Learm and understand end-to-end ECC (e2eECC) connections everywhere in the device.
- Configure and initilize the various Timers within the device.
- Configure and initialize the External Bus Interface (EBI), including memory controller, bus monitor, arbiter and various external pins needed to communicate to external peripherals.
- Learn how to initialize the enhanced MIOS (eMIOS) for various timer modes to drive actuators, motors, and monitor input signals.
- Configure and initialize the enhanced DMA (eDMA) to transfer data between on-chip I/O peripherals and on-chip memory via the crossbar switch (XBAR). eDMA module does not have external pins.
- Configure and initialized the enhanced QADC (eQADC) to measure analog signals using various scan modes, various trigger mechanisms, various interrupt schemes, and various digital data formats. Independent eADCs with up to 12-bit A/D resolution.
- Initialize and configure the EBI to interface to external memories, I/O peripherals, ASIC or FPGA devices.
- Configure and initialize the enhanced SCI (eSCI) to perform serial communication using full-duplex/half-duplex, standard/non-standard baud rates, error checking with LIN and DMA supports.
- Configure and initialize the popular FlexCAN a serial communication protocols used for automotive and industrial control applications.
- Learn how to initialize from power-on reset. Understand and use the Boot Assist Module (BAM) for device operation after reset, but before user application. BAM is a block of read-only memory resident in the device.
- Understand and learn the FlexRay, CAN, FlexPWM, LINFlex modules, Power Control Unit (PCU).
- Understand and learn the Fault Collection and Control Unit (FCCU) block that collects various faults and place the device in safe sate.
- And many more...
Total topics covered will vary depending on class size, student's background, and pace of the class. Our instructors are flexible to adapt and adjust topics to suit your requirements.
Prerequisites
Understanding of basic microprocessor and microcontroller inner working are helpful. Also, familiarity with C language especially data structure organization is advantageous. However, the student willingness and desire to learn are the most important factors.
