Product Overview

AEK-MCU-C4MINI1 is an all-in-one, fast-prototyping, user-friendly MCU and motor control evaluation board based on the Chorus SPC58EC80E5 automotive microcontroller. It offers more than a standard MCU board. Leveraging on a user-friendly interface, it allows fast ECU prototyping with basic motor control drives, serial communication ports and LCD resistive display dual connection. The AEK-MCU-C4MINI1 is designed to address automotive and transportation applications as well as other applications requiring automotive safety and security levels. A cryptography dedicated MCU core, employed as hardware secure module (HSM), is paired with dual 180 MHz general-purpose 32-bit cores, all hosted by the on board SPC58EC80E5 MCU, featuring a total 4 MB of flash memory. The board layout has been conceived to speed up the user development thus offering an easy prototyping evaluation tool. The general-purpose and serial connectors have been standardized and grouped by peripheral function types.
