Infineon has announced the PSOC Control C3 Performance Line, a new microcontroller family aimed at real-time control in power conversion and motor applications. The MCU1. microprocessor control unit2. mobile calibration unit3. microcontrollerA microcontroller is a compact integrated circuit designed to execute embedded control tasks in electronic systems.s are built on an Arm Cortex-M33 multi-core architecture and are positioned for workloads that require precise, high-speed control in systems such as AIartificial intelligence server PSUs, solar inverters, SMPS, EV charging, and high-end motor control.
The company says the family is designed to deliver high control-loop frequency, accuracy, and system efficiency. To reach that goal, the devices combine proprietary autonomous hardware accelerators with high-resolution analog peripheral support. Infineon also highlights support for wide-bandgap switch-based systems, where higher switching frequencies and control-loop bandwidth are important.
Security is a central part of the launch. The PSOC Control C3 Performance Line complies with Post-Quantum Cryptography requirements for firmware protection as defined in the CNSA Suite 2.0, and it also supports PSA Level 3 enablement. According to Infineon, the family is intended to help industrial applications move toward stronger security as post-quantum protection becomes more relevant.
For secure boot and update flows, the MCU1. microprocessor control unit2. mobile calibration unit3. microcontrollerA microcontroller is a compact integrated circuit designed to execute embedded control tasks in electronic systems. family includes SHA-512 and LMS firmware verification. Infineon is offering dedicated variants for power conversion and motor control, with package options of up to 100 pins. Design support is provided through ModusToolbox Power Suite and Motor Suite, which include control libraries and tools.
