This migration guide describes the hardware and software differences to consider when moving between F2837x, F2838x, F28P65x and F29H85x C2000™ MCUs, where F28P65x is used as the example of a Gen 3 device in individual sections. While the CPU system from C28x to C29x has improved, the block diagram is not shown between the two MCUs as a visual representation on what blocks are similar or different. As there will be huge differences, there is a section sharing the improvement on the architecture in C29x. It also highlights the features that are unique between the devices for all available packages in a device comparison table. To facilitate application and hardware migration between Gen3 and Gen4 devices, the new PCB hardware section provides guidance on how to proceed with the new design for F29H85x. As there are many new features being offered on this device, there are sections showing the new changes that have been made and what value each feature adds. This serves as a reference for hardware design and signal routing when considering a move between the devices.
