Feature
Description
Reliability, safety and
security
• Hardware encryption coprocessor for secure data transfer and storage. Faster than
software implementations and with minimal CPU loading. Supports a wide variety of
algorithms ‐ DES, 3DES, AES, MD5, SHA‐1, SHA‐256
• Memory protection unit provides memory protection for all masters on the cross bar
switch, increasing software reliability
• Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) engine validates memory contents and communication
data, increasing system reliability
• Independently‐clocked COP guards against clock skew or code runaway for fail‐safe
applications, such as the IEC 60730 safety standard for household appliances
• External watchdog monitor drives output pin to safe state for external components in the
event that a watchdog timeout occurs
• Included in NXP product longevity program, with assured supply for a minimum of 10
years after launch
5. Clocking
The Kinetis MCU startup from an internal digitally-controlled oscillator (DCO). Software can enable the
main external oscillator (EXTAL0/XTAL0) if desired. The external oscillator/resonator can range from
32.768 KHz up to 50 MHz. The default external source for the MCG oscillator inputs (EXTAL) is 50
MHz clock source from Micrel Ethernet PHY.
