1 Product Description
The TPMC160 is a standard single-width 32 bit PMC module and supports a 33 MHz / 32-bit universal (5 V /
3.3 V) PCI interface.
The TPMC160 offers eight isolated automotive sensor simulator channels, which can act as a PSI5 or as
wheel speed sensor. The sensor simulation supports a current sink with three adjustable levels. It also
features PSI5 Sync and Reset pulse detection. The sensor simulation channels are isolated against the
system and against each other.
PSI5 support includes PSI5-P, -U and -D bus topologies and both 125 kbps and 189 kbps transmission
rates. Asynchronous and Variable Time Triggered Synchronous Operation Modes are supported.
Wheel speed sensor support covers two- and three current levels sensors, sensors with additional status
information and the “AK-protocol”.
All TPMC160 signals are accessible through a HD50 SCSI-2 type front I/O connector.

5.3.3 Custom Protocol Registers
The TPMC160 supports custom protocols by allowing the manual setting of the current level. This can be
done either directly through the CP[x] DEFAULT bits, or as a sequence through the CP FIFO.
After starting a sequence, each current level is provided one after the other for a duration of CP[x] TP. As
soon as the Manual Sequence FIFO is empty the corresponding output is set to the value defined by the
CP[x] DEFAULT bits. After filling the FIFO again, the next sequence can be started.
