Lapis Semiconductor Releases New Low Power Microcontroller [Professional Services Close - Up](Professional Services Close - Up Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Lapis Semiconductor detailed the development of a low power microcontroller that integrates an 8bit low power MCU core, speech synthesis circuit, high efficiency Class D speaker amp, non- volatile memory, and oscillator circuit on a single chip, making audio playback possible by connecting to a speaker. According to a release, the ML610Q304 also provides hardware- based audio playback operation that minimizes the load placed on the MCU for system control processing, and the newly designed high- efficiency Class D amp reduces current consumption during audio playback by approx. 40 percent while maintaining volume levels. The company said tht features include: -Original high-performance 8bit RISC core -High efficiency Class D speaker amp (3.0V: 0.45W, 5.0V: 1.0W) -Multiple fail-safe functions -High-precision oscillation: 32.768kHz/8.192MHz [1.5 percent (- 10 to 50 degrees C), 3.0 percent (-40 to 85 degrees C)] -96KB Flash -2KB data Flash -1KB RAM -8bit timer x 4 (two 8bit timers can be used as a 16bit timer) -3ch 10bit A/D converter -Operating frequency: 27kHz to 8.4MHz -Operating temperature range: -40 to 85 degrees C -Power supply voltage: 2.0 to 5.5V -Compact WQFN28 package More information: www.rohm.com ((Comments on this story may be sent to [email protected])) (c) 2014 ProQuest Information and Learning Company; All Rights Reserved.
