2024
There was a plethora of new products last month, between NXP’s MCXA Cortex-M33 and ST’s STM32WBA with the same core for Bluetooth applications. TI was also in the headlines with the announcement of the C29 core in the C2000 family. The first instance is a triple C29 core focused on Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) D and SIL 3. In the same go, TI introduced the TMS320F28P55x with an integrated AI hardware accelerators. Expect to hear more of AI at the edge.

Microchip
Microchip added more to their AVR128 DA and DB families, a low end family with 128kB of Flash. It added TFBGA packages to the PIC32CK family and a few variants to the PIC32CZ (Cortex-M7). A few ARM-9 were added through the SAM9X with some above $10/5k.

Nuvoton
Nuvoton added the first links to its not-so-new-anymore Cortex-M7 parts. Recall the KM1M7C series sports a 160MHz Cortex-M7 with a high-resolution PWM, a high-speed, high-precision AD converter, and a feedback control assist function. The family is focused on power control.

NXP
NXP has added 12 parts in the MCXA family. The MCX A13x, A14x, A15x microcontrollers feature a Cortex-M33 at up to 96MHz and 1 MB of Flash, 128 kB of RAM with high levels of integration and analog. The low-power and intelligent peripherals include timers that generate three complementary PWM pairs with deadband insertion, 4Msps 16b ADC with hardware windowing and averaging features. The innovative power architecture is designed to support high utilization of I/Os and power efficiency with a simple supply circuit in a smaller footprint.

ST Microelectronics
ST added about 150 part numbers between the the STM32MP (MPU) the STM32WBA and the STM32G. ST added the STM32WBA6 doubling the Flash size to 2MB of the 100MHz Cortex-M33. The STM32WBA62 sports a BTLE 5.4 or 802.15.4 while the 63/64/65 add Zigbee, Thread and Matter as protocols.

Texas Instruments
TI released 26 parts, with the MSPM0L filling some package gaps, and a few parts in development around the announcement made at Electronica.
The new TMS320F28P55x series of C2000 MCUs with an integrated edge artificial intelligence (AI) hardware accelerator enables smarter real-time control, with up to 99% fault detection accuracy.
The latest 64-bit C29 core in the new F29H85x series more than doubles the real-time control performance of existing generations and will have an integrity level up to Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) D and SIL 3.
