KV5x USB

arimendes — Fri, 17 Mar 2017 15:52:51 GMT

Hi,

KV5x is a great microcontroller family started by Freescale. I would like to know if NXP has plans to continue this family by adding more chips? With USB for example.

Another point is that KV5x has 240MHZ, 4 ADCs, 4 PWMs and only one encoder interface! Most Microntroller for Motor control has at least two encoders modules.

When the MKV56F512VLL24 will be available at distribuitors or at NXP store? What is the price for 10K units for this chip?

Ari.

Yes, KV5x family of MCU is a high-performance solution offering exceptional precision, sensing and control targeting industrial motor control, industrial drives and automation and power conversion applications. We do have roadmap for this successful field application products.

Thank you for the feedback about USB and Encoder info, I will forward to our marketing team.

So far, I could not provide the lead time and price about MKV56F512VLL24 product.

About business info, you could check here ( NXP distributor network) with your local distributor.

You also could check here to request MKV56F512VLL24 sample.

Wish it helps.

Have a great day,
Ma Hui

Hi Ari,

Thanks for the feedback on KV5x. It is good to hear that the devices we work so hard on are appreciated.

As for the encoder though, KV5x does have support for at least two encoders. There is only one dedicated encoder module, and I agree that it would be good to have another. But the encoder module is complemented by two 2-channel FTM instances which both provide support for an encoder. So depending on what encoders you choose for your design, you could simply use the two 2-channel FTM modules for encoders, or you could use a combination of the encoder module plus the FTM modules. So I hope you are able to find that a little more useful. :smileyhappy:

Regards,

Chris
