MCUs have a huge 32Kbyte of RAM on-chip
Hitachi Europe has announced the immediate availability of a new series of 16bit microcontrollers featuring 32Kbyte on-chip RAM - the first in the industry to do so.
Most integrated GSM RF transceiver so far
Hitachi has launched its most integrated GSM RF transceiver solution to date.
It is suitable for consumer, industrial, office-automation and PC peripheral applications and is also targeted throughout the distribution network.
The SH7018F's SH2 CPU offers 16 32bit-wide general registers, an on-chip multiplier and a five-stage pipeline, which enables it to achieve 20MIPS Dhrystone performance at an operating frequency of 20MHz (50ns instruction cycle time).
With 160Kbyte of on-chip high-speed and single-voltage Flash memory, the CPU is able to execute instructions with no wait states.
The Flash is partitioned into 11 blocks (eight 4K blocks, two 32K blocks and one 64K block), which can be erased and programmed independently.
The peripheral set comprises a three-channel 16bit timer unit (MTU), an additional 16bit free running counter (CMT), an 8bit interval timer (TIM2), a watchdog, one USART and an ADC.
There are also a maximum of 62 I/O pins plus eight input-only pins, some of which provide external interrupt capability.
17 of the I/O pins run at 5V, while the logic and other I/O pins run at 3.3V.
The SH7018F is available immediately in a 100-pin TQFP.
It is supported by Hitachi's E6000 in-circuit emulator (E67010), which is supplied with the Hitachi-User Debug Interface (HDI) debugger software.
The only extra hardware required is the target probe, which is available under HS7018EWN61H.
Hitachi's SH C compiler can be ordered under S32HEWMCSSH-1 (one licence) and comes with a modern Windows GUI called Hitachi Embedded Workshop (HEW).
