Device Revision Identification
The device revision is indicated by a 1-character code after the device code. All standard devices are marked with device
identification and build information code. The MC33903, MC33904, MC33905S, and MC33905D, are identified by the following
markings:

Device Build Information / Date Code
Device markings indicate build information containing the week and year of manufacture. The date is coded with the last four
characters of the nine character build information code (e.g. “CTKAH0429”). The date is coded as four numerical digits where
the first two digits indicate the year and the last two digits indicate the week. For instance, the date code “0429” indicates the 29th
week of the year 2004.

Device Part Number Prefixes
Some device samples are marked with a PC prefix. A PC prefix indicates a prototype device which has undergone basic testing
only. After full characterization and qualification, devices will be marked with the MC prefix.
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Operation
Description:
In some instances, the SPI write command is not properly interpreted by the device. This results in either a “non received SPI
command” or a “corrupted SPI command”, caused by the synchronization between internal and external (oscillator and Chip
Select) signals.
Only SPI write commands (starting with bits 15,14 = 0,1) are affected. The SPI read commands (starting with bits 15,14 = 0,0 or
1,1) are not affected.
The occurrence of this issue is extremely low and can be fully prevented by implementing the workaround specified below.
Consequence:
This anomaly results in either a “non received SPI command” or a “corrupted SPI command”, caused by the synchronization
between internal and external (oscillator and Chip Select) signals.
Root cause:
The root cause of this behavior results when the Chip Select ‘low’ duration is equal to the oscillator’s operating duration, the
oscillator does not re-start on the Chip Select low to high transition, and a message sent is not written to the register.
Devices impacted:
MC33903, MC33904, and MC33905 (all device types)
Work around:
The workaround consists of 3 steps:
1.
Ensure the duration of the Chip Select Low (tCSLOW) state is >5.5 s.
Note: In data sheet revisions prior to 7.0, this parameter is not specified and is indirectly
defined by the sum of 3 parameters, tLEAD + 16 x tPCLK + tLAG (sum = 4.06 s).
2.
Ensure SPI timing parameter tLEAD is a min of 550 ns.
Note: In data sheet revisions prior to 7.0, the tLEAD parameter is a min of 30 ns.
3.
Make sure to include a SPI read command after a SPI write command. In case a series of SPI write commands is
used, only one additional SPI read is necessary. The recommended SPI read command is “device ID read: 0x2580” so
device operation is not affected (ex: clear flag). Other SPI read commands may also be used.
When the previous steps are implemented, the device will operate as follows:
For a given SPI write command (named SPI write ‘n’):
•
•
In case the SPI write command ‘n’ is not accepted, the following SPI command (named SPI ‘n+1’) will finish the write
process of the SPI write ‘n’, thanks to step 2 (tLAG > 550 ns), and step 3 (which is the additional SPI command ‘n+1’).
By applying steps 1, 2, and 3, no SPI command is ignored. Worst case, the SPI write ‘n’ is executed at the time the SPI
‘n+1’ is sent. This will lead to a delay in device operation (delay between SPI command ‘n’ and ‘n+1’).
Note: Occurrence of an incorrect command is reduced, thanks to step 1 (extension of
tCSLOW duration to >5.5 s).

Freescale Semiconductor
Higher VDD voltage during EMC tests on 3.3 V VDD devices.
Description:
The maximum VDD output voltage for ALL 3.3 V VDD devices has been increased to 3.4 V, so the device stays within
specification during EMC tests.
Note: In data sheet revisions prior to 7.0, the VOUT-3.3 parameter is a maximum of 3.366 V.
Devices impacted:
All 3.3 V VDD devices
Recommendation, work around:
There is no work-around.
