Product details

Peripheral set for mixed-signal and networked control

The MC9S08QL8CTJ: An 8-channel, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter brings sensor inputs directly into the digital domain — suitable for reading temperature, pressure, or current-sense signals without an external ADC. On-chip LINbus and SCI serial interfaces allow the MCU to communicate on automotive or industrial networks, while the PWM module drives loads like LEDs, solenoids, or small DC motors. Built-in Low-Voltage Detect (LVD) and Watchdog Timer (WDT) provide brown-out protection and fault recovery, reducing the need for external supervisory ICs in safety-aware designs.

18 I/O in a 20-TSSOP footprint

The 20-pin TSSOP package (4.40 mm width) delivers 18 general-purpose I/O lines — enough for a keypad matrix, a small display interface, or a handful of digital sensors — while keeping the PCB area small.

Active production with full compliance documentation

The part is ROHS3 compliant, and NXP provides the standard compliance documentation (RoHS, REACH) for export and regulatory filing.
