Electrical characteristics
Designing hardened software to avoid noise problems
EMC characterization and optimization are performed at component level with a typical
application environment and simplified MCU software. It should be noted that good EMC
performance is highly dependent on the user application and the software in particular.
Therefore it is recommended that the user applies EMC software optimization and
prequalification tests in relation with the EMC level requested for his application.
●
Software recommendations:
The software flowchart must include the management of runaway conditions such as:
–
Corrupted program counter
–
Unexpected reset
–
Critical Data corruption (control registers...)
●
Prequalification trials:
Most of the common failures (unexpected reset and program counter corruption) can be
reproduced by manually forcing a low state on the RESET pin or the Oscillator pins for 1
second.
To complete these trials, ESD stress can be applied directly on the device, over the range of
specification values. When unexpected behavior is detected, the software can be hardened
to prevent unrecoverable errors occurring (see application note AN1015).

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Based on a simple application running on the product (toggling 2 LEDs through the I/O
ports), the product is monitored in terms of emission. This emission test is in line with the
norm SAE J 1752/3 which specifies the board and the loading of each pin.
