Active 8-bit workhorse for cost-sensitive control
The MC908QY2CDTER: It runs at 8 MHz with 1.5 KB of on-chip Flash and 128 bytes of RAM — the memory footprint suits simple control loops, sensor readouts, or state-machine logic where a few hundred instructions cover the application.
Peripherals and I/O for a tight BOM
Thirteen general-purpose I/O pins are available in the 16-TSSOP package — enough to handle a few pushbuttons, LEDs, a serial interface, and a sensor interrupt without needing a port expander. On-chip peripherals include a 4-channel 8-bit ADC for analog sensor inputs, a PWM generator for dimming or motor speed control, plus low-voltage detect (LVD) and power-on reset (POR) that eliminate external supervisor ICs.
Industrial temperature grade in a small footprint
The 16-TSSOP body (4.40 mm wide, 0.65 mm pitch) fits on a compact PCB; the small pad footprint leaves room for passives and connectors on a space-constrained layout. Surface-mount assembly with the 16-TSSOP package is standard — no special reflow profile beyond the usual lead-free solder curve for this body size.
