Selection Guide

Choose the TMS320F280036-Q1 when your application demands 256 KB flash and automotive qualification. It is ideal for complex motor control, digital power, and EV powertrain systems. If your design can accept fewer flash memory, TMS320F280034-Q1 (128 KB) or TMS320F280035-Q1 (160 KB) offer lower cost while preserving pin compatibility. For applications requiring CAN-FD but not automotive rating, consider TMS320F280036C-Q1. Since all these share the same 64-LQFP package, you can validate the design with the higher-memory part and later switch to a lower-memory variant if code fits.

Key Differentiators

  • Higher flash memory (256 KB) than lower family variants (vs TMS320F280034-Q1)
  • Automotive AEC-Q100 qualification (vs non-automotive C2000 parts)
  • Integrated CLA and TMU (vs standard MCUs)

Design Notes

The LQFP-64 package has a thermal resistance that depends on PCB copper area. At high clock speeds and sustained operation, ensure adequate heatsinking by using copper pours and vias under the exposed pad. The MCU typically consumes less than 1W, but in automotive environments, check junction temperature against the datasheet's thermal limits.

Place decoupling capacitors (0.1uF and 10uF) close to all supply pins to minimize noise. For high-frequency switching circuits, route signal traces away from power traces and provide a solid ground plane. Use separate analog and digital ground planes if ADC accuracy is critical.

Avoid exceeding the absolute maximum voltage on supply pins. Ensure proper reset circuitry and oscillator selection. The internal oscillator may be sufficient for some applications, but external crystal for precise timing in motor control. Verify that the CAN-FD transceiver is compatible with the MCU's CAN pins.
