Microcomputer:TLCS-770 Family

TLCS-770 Family TLCS-770 Series

Digital signal processors (DSPs) capable of high-precision 3-phase motor control
  Traditional electric power steering (EPS) control systems have implemented both system and motor control with a single main microcontroller. Toshiba has newly developed a DSP specifically optimized for automotive motor control. By separating system control and motor control functionalities, Toshiba offers a new two-chip solution for EPS systems that provides various advantages resulting from efficient control and flexibility, such as reduced power consumption due to lowered operating frequencies, future provisions for performance improvement, and ease of broadening application product lines.
 The TMP77CM70TUG and TMP77FM70TUG are high-speed processors based on Toshiba’s proprietary 16-bit DSP core adopting Harvard architecture which allows an instruction and data to be read simultaneously.
 These new products contain two units of AD converter for simultaneous conversion of two motor current waveforms and a 3-phase PWM output circuit with a minimum resolution of 25 ns. These features greatly contribute to improving performance of automotive motor applications, including an enhanced steering feel and reduced vibration in the car air conditioner compressor.
