It runs at 8 MHz on a 3 V to 5.5 V supply and carries 16 KB of on-chip Flash program memory with 1K x 8 RAM. The peripheral set includes a CAN controller, LINbus, SCI, and SPI — making it a fit for automotive body modules, industrial CANopen sensor nodes, and low-speed actuator networks. ## CAN, LIN, SCI, SPI — the connectivity mix The CANbus controller is the headline interface on this part — many HC08 variants omit it. Alongside LINbus, SCI (UART), and SPI, the MC68908GZ16VFJE can bridge a CAN backbone to a LIN sub-bus for door modules or to an SPI sensor cluster. The 21 I/O lines in the 32-LQFP package leave room for a few discrete inputs and outputs alongside the serial interfaces. LVD and POR are included for brown-out protection without an external supervisor. ## Lifecycle and sourcing posture The MC68908GZ16VFJE carries an Active lifecycle status.","metaTitle":"MC68908GZ16VFJE HC08 MCU, 8-bit, 8 MHz, 16 KB Flash, 32-LQFP","metaDescription":"MC68908GZ16VFJE 8-bit HC08 MCU with 8 MHz core, 16 KB Flash, CAN/LIN/SCI/SPI, -40 to 105°C.
