Product details

What this ColdFire V1 MCU brings to a metering or motor-drive BOM

The NXP MCF51EM256CLLR is a 32-bit ColdFire V1 microcontroller built for applications that need a deterministic control loop, an integrated LCD segment driver, and a wide supply range. Its 50 MHz core drives the 256 KB Flash and 16K x 8 RAM — enough headroom for a moderate firmware stack with a real-time scheduler. The peripheral set includes an LCD controller, low-voltage detect (LVD), PWM, and watchdog timer, plus I²C, SCI, and SPI connectivity. The 16-channel 12-bit ADC covers multi-sensor acquisition.

Frequently asked questions

Does the MCF51EM256CLLR have I²C and SPI interfaces?

Yes, the MCF51EM256CLLR includes I²C, SCI, and SPI connectivity. The SCI module can be configured for UART operation.

Can the MCF51EM256CLLR be used for motor control?

Yes. The 50 MHz core, PWM timer, and 16-channel 12-bit ADC make it a viable candidate for sensorless or sensored motor-control loops in applications such as pumps, fans, and small drives.
