16-bit MCU with USB and generous memory for industrial data-logging
On-chip peripherals include a 12-bit ADC with 16 channels, two 12-bit DACs, a DMA controller, brown-out reset, POR, PWM, and a watchdog timer. The 74 GPIOs in the 100-LQFP package leave room for a parallel LCD or a bank of opto-isolated inputs alongside the USB link. Rated for -40°C to 85°C operation, this part suits factory-floor data concentrators, medical patient monitors, portable instrumentation, and any mixed-signal control loop that needs a single-chip USB stack.
512 KB Flash and 66 KB RAM — what it means for your firmware
