36 new 16-bit MCUs with CAN and LIN support

For more design flexibility and higher performance

(PresseBox) (Stuttgart, )
The 36 new 16-bit microcontrollers of the 78K0R/Fx3 series from NEC Electronics (Distribution: Gleichmann Electronics) were specifically designed for cost-sensitive automotive body electronics applications such as window, seat and door modules or HVAC systems.

The MCUs are based on a high-performance 78K0R core with 24 MHz clock speed, which delivers up to 15 Dhrystone MIPS. A new feature is an enhanced instruction set containing 25 additional instructions.

Furthermore, particular attention was given to the enhancement and optimization of the storage resources. In addition to up to 256 Kbytes Flash memory for the software, the MCU family offers a further 16 Kbytes Flash memory, separated from the program memory, for the EEPROM emulation. Linear memory addressing eliminates the need for memory banking. Fast access times, both to program memory and data memory, enable a high execution speed.

An additional feature of the 78K0R/Fx3 devices is the extended LIN support with automatic baud rate detection and improved timer functionality, which significantly reduces software effort and simplifies the design of complex timer implementations.

To facilitate application development with the 16-bit MCUs of the 78K0R/Fx3 series, engineers can rely on a wide range of field-tested tools. In addition to the IECUBE(TM) in-circuit emulator, which among other things enables real-time trace and emulation, the offering also includes MINICUBE2(TM) on-chip serial debugging emulator and flash programmer, PG-FP5 flash programmer and Applilet - an automatic source code generator.

Depending on version, the microcontrollers of the 78K0R/Fx3 series are available in QFN packages, QFPs or SSOPs with 30 to 100 pins. Samples of the first devices are scheduled to be available during the middle of 2009.

MSC Technologies GmbH

Founded in 1979, Gleichmann & Co. Electronics GmbH, in the same company group with MSC Vertriebs GmbH, has established itself as one of the leading pan-European distributors of electronic assemblies and components. One of the reasons for the high acceptance by customers and suppliers is the company's early focus on comparatively few, highly sophisticated products such as microcontrollers, programmable logic devices, displays and customer specific power supplies. From this, the resulting in-depth technical know-how of our sales engineers and field application engineers today enables us, if required by the customer, even implementation of complete new designs right up to the finished product. With two of its own ASIC design centers, the Gleichmann research laboratory in Austria and one of the largest and most modern programming centers in Europe, Gleichmann Electronics takes a leading role in terms of service and customer support.
