Acroview, a leader in chip programming, has simultaneously announced the expansion of its compatible chip model list with the release of its new programming software. Its universal programming platform AP8000 has added support for SinoWealth's 32-bit microcontroller SH33F2802, and the adaptation work for this chip has been completed.

The SH33F2802 is a high-performance 32-bit microcontroller based on the ARM "Xingchen" processor, supporting a maximum main frequency of 84MHz. Due to the adoption of a specially structured memory instruction acceleration mode, the system achieves high operational efficiency.

The ARM "Xingchen" processor features a mature and reliable system architecture, efficient instruction execution, and a complete ecosystem. The SH33F2802 fully leverages the advantages of the ARM "Xingchen" processor, providing a highly integrated, high-computing-power single-chip integrated circuit and offering a cost-effective microcontroller system solution.

In terms of computing capability, the ARM "Xingchen" processor has a built-in hardware 32-bit multiplier/divider, providing powerful computing power. On this basis, the SH33F2802 further provides a Mathematical Arithmetic Coprocessor (MACP), offering hardware CORDIC computation for fast sine, cosine, arctangent, modulus operations, Park transformation, and inverse Park transformation. It also provides a hardware SVPWM circuit for generating pure hardware five-segment and seven-segment SVPWM waveforms. Additionally, the SH33F2802 has a built-in independent three-phase motor-specific PWM module (MCM) and two programmable counter array modules (PCA), enabling 32-bit PWM output and 3-channel input capture timing functions. The SH33F2802 also integrates multiple operational amplifiers and analog comparators, and a 12-bit multi-channel high-speed ADC, making it very suitable for high-performance motor control applications, especially for controlling various Brushless DC Motors (BLDC) and Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM).

The SH33F2802 provides optional 8/16/32-bit CRC code verification and data verification, SRAM self-test algorithm, supports low-power application modes, and has built-in auxiliary modules such as an independent watchdog, window watchdog, low-voltage reset circuit, and brown-out detection circuit, effectively improving system reliability and suitable for high safety requirement applications.

The SH33F2802 features a comprehensive code protection mechanism, providing multiple code read protection, write protection, erase protection functions. The debug port can be cut off for protection, supports customer security code setting, and adds protection against invasive attacks on Flash.
