Connectivity and analog integration
On the serial side, this part covers I2C, SPI, UART/USART, IrDA, and LIN — so it can talk to common sensor modules, memory chips, and actuator drivers without extra protocol converters. The 16-channel 12-bit ADC handles analog inputs like thermocouples, potentiometers, or current-sense resistors directly. Brown-out detect, POR, and a watchdog timer are built in, which simplifies power-up sequencing and fault recovery in remote or unattended gear.
Temperature grade and deployment
Rated for -40°C to 85°C. Supply range is 1.8 V to 3.6 V.
