The newest member of the Traveo™ MCU family integrates a 2D graphics engine, LVDS output and expanded on-board storage for a more cost-effective and scalable solution.

Traveo™ automotive MCU (microcontroller) products are now available in a new family of S6J32xE, providing greater storage space for program code and graphic display settings to support hybrid instrument cluster applications. The new highly integrated S6J32xE family of devices provides a single-chip solution for driving head-up display systems and traditional instrument cluster graphics, and is scalable due to Cypress‘s low pin-count HyperBus™ memory interface. Cypress offers a broad portfolio of automotive products with a variety of performance options in MCUs, storage, radio frequency, capacitive touch solutions, power management ICs (PMICs) and other technologies, and today‘s new The series expands it again.

The Traveo S6J32xE family features up to 4MB of high-capacity embedded flash, 512 KB RAM and 2 MB video RAM, and a 240 MHz ARM® Cortex®-R5 core. This series of MCUs can support up to two 12-pin HyperBus memory interfaces, which can greatly improve the read and write performance of graphics data and other data or code. The device can use a HyperBus interface to connect two memories for firmware over-the-air (FOTA) upgrades, enabling vehicles already in service to download software patches, functions and applications. This series of MCUs integrates a low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) video output, providing a suitable interface for connecting to external displays such as thin-film transistors (TFTs). This series of MCUs supports all vehicle networking standards used by instrumentation systems, including CAN-FD (Controller Area Network Bus - Flexible Data Transfer) protocol and Ethernet AVB protocol.

The Traveo MCUs follow the strong growth trend in hybrid instrument clusters and head-up display systems, reaffirming our commitment to continuously expand our automotive product portfolio to meet the changing needs of our customers. These new devices provide automakers with a high-performance and cost-effective platform that enhances Cypress‘s ability to provide advanced features in popular vehicles.

The new Traveo products added to this S6J32xE series integrate Enhanced Security Hardware Extensions (eSHE) for powerful security performance. The HyperBus interface can be seamlessly connected to Cypress‘s HyperFlash™ and HyperRAM™ storage, and the Traveo MCU can provide up to 200MBps of read/write bandwidth per channel. The MCU includes a 50-channel 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a 12-channel multi-function serial interface and I2S interface, and an audio digital-to-analog converter (AUDIO DAC), capable of outputting the high-quality composites required by today‘s instrument panel systems. sound effects. While the Media LB interface supports traditional media communication systems, the device‘s support for Ethernet AVB increases bandwidth for multimedia applications and reduces programming time. The S6J32xE series supports a wider ambient temperature range of -40 degrees to +105 degrees.

The Traveo S6J32xE series is sampling now, and the MCUs are available in TEQFP-208 and TEQFP-216 packages.
