PSC3M8GFS3PAHQ1

PSC3M8GFS3PAHQ1 is a PSOC Control C3 Performance Line microcontroller from Infineon Technologies for advanced motor control, built around a 180 MHz Arm Cortex-M33 main core plus a programmable power control accelerator (PPCA) with two 200 MHz Cortex-M33 cores, with 512 KB Flash, 128 KB SRAM, four 12-bit 25 Msps SAR ADCs, 26-channel TCPWM including 12-channel high-resolution PWM with sub-100 ps resolution, two CAN FD channels, and CryptoLite security in a 100-pin E-LQFP package. The motor-control variant is the selection point: MOTIF motion interfaces with Hall and quadrature-encoder support plus a CORDIC accelerator offload field-oriented control math from the main core, and two MOTIF instances help run two motors without CPU intervention, so drives hold tight speed and torque control without a larger controller or extra interface logic. The business gain is a smaller, cheaper drive: fewer external control parts, faster control loops, and one qualified MCU platform across drive tiers. Evidence: Infineon lists this ordering code as NEW on its PSOC Control C3 Performance Line page with Sept 2026 availability, 512 KB Flash, 128 KB SRAM, 60 GPIO, and a -40 C to +115 C operating range, and Infineon application documentation describes the PSC3M/P8 motor-control configuration with MOTIF and CORDIC. Selection advice: choose the M8 motor variant over the P8 power-conversion variant when the design is a drive rather than a converter; choose this 100-pin E-LQFP form over the 80-pin form when the design needs the full 60 GPIO, since the two packages are not pin-compatible; match the full PSC3M8GFS3PAHQ1 code, because the C3 family spans Entry, Main, and Performance lines that are not drop-in interchangeable. Infineon marks this code NEW with Sept 2026 availability. Parameters verified against Infineon Technologies documentation.
