Introduction

The C2000 family of real-time microcontrollers come in a range of performance packages with varying pin packages, flash size, performance, and feature sets. This large portfolio allows for a wide variety of applications in processing, sensing and actuation. All of the TMS320F2800x devices (F280013x, F28002x, F28003x, and F28004x) feature the industry-leading TMS320C28x 32-bit digital signal processor (DSP) core and run at frequencies of 100 MHz or higher. This, along with an arithmetically-tuned instruction set, allow the C2000 MCU to run floating or fixed-point code in ultra-low latency control systems. Performance-wise, the entry and mid-performance F2800x devices range in flash sizes up to 384KB and have RAM sizes up to 100KB.

The increase in processing power and advancements in power-reduction have allowed for extremely capable devices, but have also greatly increased the complexity of designing with the C2000 MCUs. While the C2000 family of microcontrollers still remains a very scalable device, these advancements come with additional analog challenges. What is the optimal device for my system? What additional components should be added to increase stability? What layout considerations should be taken to maximize device performance? All of this information, as well as other key criteria, are outlined in this application report.

Note: The current revisions on all device-specific data manuals take precedence over the information/data in this report. This document offers guidance on best practices when designing systems with F2800x microcontrollers. For detailed device information, see the device-specific data sheet and technical reference manuals.
