Course Title: MPC5675K (Komodo) Power Architecture

Target Applications: Automotive, Radar for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, and aerospace.

Course Description: This 3 day course offers coverage of e200z7 Dual Power Core Architecture, Memory Management Unit, Memory Protection Unit (MPU), Instruction Cache, Crossbar switch and all Internal Buses, Redundancy Checker (CR), Fault Collection & Control Unit (FCCU), Clock Generation, Power Modes and Power Management Unit, System Timers such as PIT, eTimer and FlexPWM. It includes coverage of the Serial I/O Modules such as LINFlex, FlexCAN and DSP interfaces, Enhanced Direct Memory Controller (eDMA), Analogue to Digital Converter and Cross Trigger Unit (CTU). It also cover two cores running in a clock-accurate lock-step mode with emphasis on safety-critical features.

Who Should Attend: Software and system engineers who need to come up to speed quickly on how to program and design with the MPC5675K Devices.

Participants will be provided: A hard copy of the workshop course notes, lab book and textbook. A CDROM of all the lab experiments and demo version of the development tools is also provided.

Prerequisite: Knowledge/experience of some microprocessor/microcontroller is necessary.

After completing the workshop, the participant will understand the basic concepts of the Dual Core Power Architecture and all major functional blocks of the Komodo device.
