Monolithic CMOS power amp cuts GSM consumption
The Si4300 is billed as the industry's first monolithic CMOS power amplifier (PA) for GSM cellular applications.
MCU incorporates high-resolution conversion
The C8051F350 is precision mixed-signal microcontroller that integrates an eight-channel, 24bit ADC with a high-speed 8051-compatible CPU.
The new C8051F316 and C8051F317 MCUs are ideal for space-constrained applications such as camera modules, cellular phones and portable gaming machines where Flash memory, low power consumption and small size are essential.
The C8051F316 and C8051F317 mixed-signal MCUs feature Silicon Laboratories' high-speed, pipelined 25MIPS 8051 core, 16Kbyte Flash memory, 1280byte RAM and 24 pins offering customers a high level of integration using a small amount of board space.
On-chip peripherals include a 10bit 200Ksample/s ADC, temperature sensor, voltage reference and comparator.
The C8051F316 and C8051F317 also integrate a two% accuracy precision internal oscillator that eliminates the need for an external crystal.
onboard serial communication peripherals include UART, SMBus and SPI bus serial ports.
"Silicon Laboratories' ability to deliver highly-integrated MCUs that offer both high-performance digital and analogue without compromising performance results in cost effective, highly functional solutions for customers", said Derrell Coker, Vice President of Silicon Laboratories.
"As is typical with all of our MCUs, we offer a complete set of professional development tools to enable customers to quickly and easily design with our products".
The C8051F316 and C8051F317 include on-chip two-wire (C2) debug circuitry that provides nonintrusive, full-speed, in-circuit debugging of the production part before and after installation with no emulator required.
The complete, low-cost professional development kit includes everything required to immediately begin the system design: IDE, target board, cables and power supply.
The C8051F316 and C8051F317 are packaged in 24-pin QFNs.
Pricing begins at $2.42 in quantities of 10,000, and a complete development kit is available for $99.
