TSC87251G2D-L16CB

Embedded microcontrollers have become increasingly important in a wide range of applications. As a type of such microcontrollers, TSC87251G2D-L16CB is widely used in various electronic products. This article will discuss its application field and working principle.

Applications of TSC87251G2D-L16CB

Developed by Toshiba, the TSC87251G2D-L16CB is a 16-bit microcomputer system equipped with functions such as hot standby, lock detection, and on-chip GDDR processing. This microcontroller can be used for various fields. Since the register length and related functions of the microcomputer are required for industrial control and communication line control, it is used in industrial automation fields, such as flow control, temperature control and air conditioning. In addition, it is also used in home appliances and office automation fields, such as fax machines and copy machines. Besides, it is also applied in information equipment, such as cash registers and touch panel monitors.

Working Principle of TSC87251G2D-L16CB

The TSC87251G2D-L16CB has an 8-bit parallel I/O port which contains two separate 8-bit I/O ports; PORTS A and PORTS B. PORTS A is mainly used for input processing and PORTS B for output processing. This microcontroller can be connected to external devices such as different sensors and motors by using its 16-bit timer/counter units and serial I/O ports. It can be programmed to perform various tasks such as data collection, processing, and output. In addition, it has an additional non-volatile memory that is used to store the settings of the microcontroller. This is used to ensure that settings are not lost when there is a power failure.

The microcontroller is also equipped with the 16-bit ALU (arithmetic and logic unit), which is responsible for various operations such as numerical calculations, logical operations, and data manipulation. The ALU can process several calculations at the same time and it is used to perform complex operations such as calculations, sorting, and indexing. The internal memory of the microcontroller contains instruction registers which can be used by the ALU to perform a variety of operations.

The microcontroller is also equipped with a watchdog timer, which can be used to monitor the activities of the program. If the program is not running properly or the instruction is not executed within the specified time, the watchdog timer will trigger an interrupt that will cause the program to terminate. This feature can be used to prevent system failure.

The TSC87251G2D-L16CB microcontroller also has an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) unit, which is responsible for converting analog signals into digital data. This data is then used by the microcontroller to perform various calculations such as temperature and pressure measurement, voltage measurement, and etc. In addition, the ADC unit can also be used to detect various parameters such as the frequency of an incoming signal.

In conclusion, the TSC87251G2D-L16CB is a highly versatile microcontroller that can be used in various applications such as industrial automation, home appliances, office automation, and information equipment. Its powerful functions, such as the 16-bit ALU unit, serial I/O ports, and the watchdog timer, make it well-suited for systems that require high performance and reliability.
