TMS320F28379D: Want to upgtrade from F28335

Part Number: TMS320F28379D


I currently using F28335 experimental kit and it works perfectly fine.
but, I wanted to upgrade to latest and faster MCU.
I use Matlab to run the code and it worked perfectly.
Can you suggest the latest MCU provided by the TI? 

I have seen the TMS320 F28379D Delfino Experimenter Kit.
what advantage it offers than f28335. i don't need in-depth advantages. but what are the significant advantages of f28379d over F28335?

  • Hi Mohammad,

    Were you specifically looking into experimental kits only?

    Depending on the application you have, different parts might meet your requirements.

    The F28379D in comparison to the F28335 device has the following upgrades,

    1) Can run at up to 200MHz

    2) Two 32 bit CPUs instead of one

    3) Two CLAs (Control Law Accelerators)

    4) A TMU (Trigonometric Math Unit)

    5) Double the size of FLASH (1024KB versus 512KB)

    6) A CLB (Configurable Logic Block)

    7) 16-bit & 12-bit ADC instead of only a 12-bit ADC

    8) Three SPI modules instead of one

    9) 4 SCI (UART) modules instead of 3

    10) 16 HRPWM Channels instead of 6

    The list of advantages goes on. I can specify more if you'd like me to. As I mentioned earlier depending on the application, some features will be more important than others. If you are doing a lot of calculations then the CLA and TMU are really nice advantages. If you require an ADC the precision is much higher with the F280379D. There are more communication peripherals on the F280379D versus the F28335 device. The F280379D device does run at a higher frequency and has two CPUs so the time it would take to perform a task (when programmed correctly) will be quicker than with the F28335 device.

    Best Regards,
