TMS570LC4357: Does TMS570 Have Functionality Similar to ESP32's ETM or NRF52's PPI?

Part Number: TMS570LC4357

Tool/software:

 Hello , i am familiar with the ESP32's Event-Task Matrix (ETM) and the NRF52's Programmable Peripheral Interconnect (PPI) systems, which offer efficient task-handling and inter-peripheral communication respectively. I was wondering if Texas Instruments' TMS570 microcontroller series has equivalent features or something similar that provides the same or comparable functionality. Any insights or guidance on TMS570's capabilities in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

  • Hi MC,

    Apologies for the delay in late response. I am on a vacation for couple of days and followed by a weekend.

    Unfortunately, no, in our Hercules controllers there is no event matrix or any similar one. I mean it is not possible to directly trigger the one peripheral with another peripheral event without CPU intervention.

    But for ADC module there is both Hardware and software event triggers like as below:

    For example, we can choose the hardware trigger and can select the GPIO rising edge to trigger the conversions on ADC without CPU intervention.
