About this manual

The document serves as a guide for designing efficient ECU hardware based on the e200zx Power Architecture core. It focuses specifically on the Power Management Controller (PMC), covering topics such as voltage regulators, oscillators, reset circuits, and ADC configurations.

Key areas addressed include single 5V system power supply setups, external power supply configurations, mixed modes, low-voltage inhibit logic, and specific layout recommendations for PCB design. The note also details boot modes, unused I/O handling, and provides circuit examples for the voltage regulator controller and reset circuitry.

What's inside

  • Power Management Controller (PMC)
  • External power supply configuration
  • FMPLL and crystal oscillator
  • Configuration pins and unused IOs
  • ADC parameters
  • Reset circuitry

Frequently asked questions

What are the target applications for these devices?

The SPC564Axx and SPC563Mxx devices are designed for low to mid-range engine management and automotive transmission control.

Which specific NPN transistors are guaranteed for use with the regulator controller?

The document guarantees that ON Semiconductor BCP68T1, NJD2873, and NXP BCP68 transistors will work with the circuitry.

What is the maximum current required on VDD in a worst-case hot scenario?

The device may require up to 450mA on the VDD supply under worst-case conditions.
