Company's Newest High-Performance, Low-Power Microcontroller Ideal for High Performance, Low Power, General Purpose Applications
According to Andrew Burt, vice president of the Imaging and Communications Marketing Group at TAEC, "The TMPM330FDFG delivers high-code efficiency for better memory storage, exceptional interrupt handling and low power consumption. The device can achieve the cost/performance equivalent of a 16-bit core, but with 32-bit performance. This is an exceptional device and we intend to add similar products to our microcontroller lineup to support different markets."
At no extra cost to the customer, the TMPM330FDFG also features a CEC (Consumer Electronic Control), which is a device control method standardized for HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface). With CEC, signal processing is performed in hardware, which simplifies software processing and conserves memory utilization, peripheral functions and CPU resources, freeing those resources for other functions.
Key Features
With an operating frequency of 40MHz, the TMPM330FDFG achieves the lowest power consumption in its class, about 15mW, and the fastest programming/erasing speed, approximately two seconds, for its class in the industry. The TMPM330FDFG has an integrated 12-channel A/D converter to enable high-speed conversion of analog data from various sensors in 1.15 microseconds. Other features include:
-- Power voltage: 2.7V to 3.6V
-- On-chip ROM/RAM: 512-KB FLASH ROM; 32-KB RAM
-- Built-in functions: 16-bit timer: 10 channels,
-- I2C/SIO: 3 channels
-- SIO/UART: 3 channels
-- UART channels can operate in three modes: 7-bit, 8-bit and 9-bit
-- CEC: 1 channel which can be disabled in software if desired
-- 1.25 DMIPS/MHZ performance
-- Implements the ARM architecture V7 M
-- Optimized design using low power consumption library
-- Ultra-low power consumption modes
-- Fast interrupt response for critical real-time applications.
-- Package: LQFP100 (14mm x 14mm, 0.5mm pitch)
Pricing and Availability
Pricing for the TMPM330FDFG is $6 each in 10K quantities. Samples will be available in December 2008 and mass production is scheduled to begin in March 2009.
