C2000 Architecture and Product Overview
IEC60730 Safety manual is part of the C2000 MCU device-specific collateral material and help implement
functional safety features enabling the hardware and software libraries. The IEC60730 Library release
includes the following collaterals:
• IEC60730 software user’s manual
• Software libraries
• Hardware kit for software evaluation, as applicable
Each of the C2000 MCU supporting safety applications may support limited FMEA analysis summary.
These are available as NDA documents only. Please contact your TI field and support for product-specific
FMEA.
1.2 C2000 and its Application Sectors
C2000 MCUs brings together highly efficient control CPU, control peripherals and rich analog peripherals
to build a deterministic control applications. All C2000 MCUs use real-time 32-bit C28x CPU with or
without floating-point unit (FPU). Higher end C2000 MCUs support highly differentiated math capabilities
using Viterbi Complex Unit (VCU) modules. Piccolo (TMSS320F2806x/5x/3x/2x) and Delfino
(TMS320F28023x/33x) MCU feature sets have been proven to deliver high performance in many of the
following applications spaces and still grow with their built-in safety features to meet several safety
compliance standards:
• Low and high appliances, white goods, and industrial drives
• Power conversion (invertors)
• Energy conversion (solar) controllers
• Power line communication (PLC) controllers
Piccolo and Delfino families of real-time microcontrollers are part of the C2000 MCUs. These devices are
available in different flavors of peripheral selection. Product-specific nomenclature and its derivatives are
explained in the Piccolo and Delfino data sheets. Special derivatives, if any, are referenced explicitly with
its part numbers.
2 C2000 Architecture and Product Overview
C2000 MCUs are built around real-time 32-bit C28x CPUs with system-on-chip (SoC) microcontroller
(MCU) features with independent communication and real-time control and analog subsystems. Piccolo
(TMSS320F2806x/5x/3x/2x) and Delfino (TMS320F28023x/33x) are part of this family that can enable
IEC60730 Class B safety in industrial control, appliances, and other applications. The C2000 MCUs
architecture provides users many control topologies utilizing its diverse peripherals within one physical IC
package.
Figure 1 provides a very high-level overview of the C2000 MCUs featured in Piccolo and Delfino family of
MCU devices.
