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.
A standard 44-pin TSOP-II (thin small outline package) is also available for compatibility with Hitachi's 4Mbit low-power SRAM.
Using a 0.18um CMOS process and employing special circuit design techniques, the new series offers high-speed operation at a low voltage.
The operating current of 30mA (maximum) at 55ns and the data retention current of 25uA (maximum) also enables data to be retained for long periods on battery backup in portable devices.
In addition to providing high-speed data read/write access time and low-voltage data retention, the high density low-power SRAMs also enable system design to be simplified as refresh operations are not necessary.
Accompanying its fast access time (55ns) and wide operating temperature range (-40 to +85C), the series includes different combinations of current grade (low-power L version or super-low-power SL version) and package (TSOP-II 44 or CSP 48) to meet a wide variety of needs from industrial to mobile consumer applications.
Sample shipments are available now and mass production is starting immediately.
