"The cost of sustainable energy is the primary challenge facing the
industry," says
Central to the ADSP-CM41x design is its breakthrough "dual independent core" safety concept, which enables the integration of safety redundancy and functions into a single chip. This first-ever architecture saves considerable development time and system cost by eliminating the need for an external supervisory element, which is the current standard. Equally important is the on-board integration of optimized hardware accelerators, designed to offload work from the processor core and boost the processing power available for core functions. Additionally, the device's on-board arc fault detection simplifies design, and enhances safety by using intelligent decision making to improve reliability and accuracy.
Building upon an already state-of-the-art power conversion platform
The
ADSP-CM41x establishes a new benchmark in ARM core processing and analog
precision, adding to the industry performance leadership established by
the recently released ADSP-CM40x power conversion series. The ADSP-CM41x
series seamlessly integrates with other critical signal chain
components, including the AD740x sigma delta-based A/D converter, which
replaces larger, more expensive sensor modules to reduce system cost and
improve isolated current measurement. Also included in the platform is
the ADuM413x series of isolated gate drivers featuring iCoupler®
isolation technology that enables faster switching to further increase
system efficiency.
