Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS570LS3137
Hello,
I created a support ticket for this issue but I was recommended to create a forum post to get in contact with product line engineers instead--
We are working with a customer that has concerns about the supply chain outlook for their project. They are looking for parts that can satisfy the following supply requirements:
- 50-100 units for internal development available in the next 3 months
- Ramp up to +1000 units for mass production throughout 2022-2023 (starting at least 30 weeks out from now)
We are currently considering the TMS570LS3137-EP, as well as parts from the TMS570L series (listed here)
I was wondering if you could provide me the following information:
- What is the supply outlook for the TMS570LS3137-EP and TMS570L series over the time frames describes above? Are there parts available that meet the requirements I've described above? If so, which part numbers? I saw on TI's website that the stock for the first part I mentioned looks alright (in the medium-term but not for mass production), but there is limited stock for the other TMS570L series parts that I filtered with the product selector.
- If the supply outlook is not known with a high degree of confidence, what is the procedure for reserving parts? Is there a way to reserve +1000 units over the course of the next ~30 weeks so that they are available for mass production?
- Is the TMS570LS3137-EP footprint compatible with any of the other TMS570L series parts? If so, which ones?
- Is there a power consumption calculator available for the TMS570LS3137-EP? I am almost certain from the data in Table 5.5 that this part will not meet our power consumption requirements (stated below) but if there is a tool available to quickly calculate the estimated power consumption of the core and several peripherals, that would be very helpful
For your reference, we are looking for parts with the following features:
- at least 100 MHz clock speed
- very low power consumption (<<1W)
- at least one CAN controller
- parts with an extended temperature range (-55 to +125C) and/or with AEC qualification are strongly preferred but not required
Thanks,
Veronica
