TMS320F280049: Different pin setting between PM and PMQ device

Part Number: TMS320F280049

Hi expert,

Could you tell me why in 64 pin Q and non-Q device have differences on pin 29 and 30? 

Thanks

  • Sheldon,

    For Q100 certification we required the Flash Test signals be brought to package pins for accessibility; so on the 64PMQ device pins 29 and 30 are used for this function.  On the non-Q100 device, this is not a requirement, so these pins are connected to GPIOs(GPIO13 and GPIO12).

    So, non-automotive customers can use the non-Q device and get 2 extra GPIO signals vs the Q-100 rated device.

    Best,
    Matthew
