FRAM-based 16-bit MCU for low-power sensing and control
FRAM writes at bus speed, consumes negligible power in standby, and retains data without a battery—making this MCU a fit for energy-harvesting sensors, industrial data loggers, and battery-operated field instruments. The 16 MHz clock rate supports real-time control loops and serial communication without the overhead of external memory.
Serial interfaces and analog integration
A 12-channel 12-bit ADC is on-chip, reducing external analog front-end components. The 31 general-purpose I/O lines are enough for keypad scanning, LED driving, and parallel sensor arrays in a compact 38-TSSOP footprint.
Internal oscillator and brown-out reset simplify the power-on sequence.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
No official replacement or second-source alternate is documented in the available records.
