NEC extends 8-bit All Flash Microcontroller Lineup
NEC has extended its comprehensive all-flash 8-bit microcontroller (MCU) series with the addition of 10 new products, including 3 low-pin-count MCUs in compact packages and 7 low-cost MCUs without A/D converters for optimized solution where analog inputs are not required.
The wider selection will help slash costs for consumer electronics products, industrial products and a wide range of other MCU applications. Samples of the compact MCUs are available now, with samples of all models to be available in the next weeks.
The 10 new products include three compact MCUs, all in 10-pin 4.4mm x 3.72mm packages, and all featuring on-chip flash memory ranging from 4 KB down to 1KB; Seven low-cost MCUs, all without A/D converter functions and all featuring on-chip flash memory ranging from 8KB down to 1KB. Pin counts range from 16 to 30.
With the addition of these new products, the NEC Electronics lineup of all-flash MCU solutions now includes 189 products, with memory capacities ranging from 640KB down to 1KB and pin counts ranging from 144 down to 10. This provides seamless coverage of system requirements for every type of MCU application.
