Infineon is launching the Traveo II Body  MCU family which addresses automotive applications, including body control modules, door, window, sunroof and seat control units as well as in-cabin smartphone terminals and wireless charging units.

The market launch follows Infineon’s acquisition of Cypress Semiconductor Corporation, which developed the product family..

The multicore Traveo II family is based on ARM Cortex-M7 and -M4 cores with up to 8 MB of embedded flash that helps the devices deliver the robust performance required for demanding body electronics applications.

Compliance to ISO26262 ASIL-B Level ensures a safe operation of the device, even for ambient temperatures up to 125°C.

Featuring support for CAN-FD, Ethernet and FlexRay communication protocols, Traveo II microcontrollers offer scalability and pin-compatibility among all low-end devices as well as among all high-end devices.

The family provides power consumption down to 5 µA and enhanced security (EVITA-Full) for connected cars.

Full Firmware-Over-The-Air support allows remote updates of application and security software without any interruption of service.

The microcontrollers are backed by AUTOSAR (AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture) 4.2 software. In addition, a broad ARM-based ecosystem for tools and software is available in the market, ranging from various IDE tools and debugger to real time operating systems.

The Traveo II Body Family comprises four different series of entry devices and two series of high-end devices, each with a different memory size and pin count.

The first entry devices will be available for mass production starting October 2020.

The other devices will be rolled out consecutively until the entire product family is available by the second quarter of 2021.

Later in 2021, the Traveo II family will be futher complemented with new embedded graphic microcontrollers to continue its presence in cluster, cockpit and digital-display applications.
