MC96F8208SD

The MC96F8208SD is a CMOS 8-bit microcontroller based on a high-speed 8051 core, offering 8 Kbytes of on-chip Flash and integrated analog and digital peripherals for compact embedded control designs. It targets embedded control and small home appliance applications where a balance of integration, flexible I/O and low-voltage operation is required.

With an internal 16 MHz RC oscillator, multiple communication interfaces and a 12-bit ADC, the device provides a complete control engine suitable for sensor interfacing, user I/O management and simple actuator control while supporting a wide supply range and industry-standard temperature operation.

Key Features

• Core and Performance High-speed 8051 8-bit CPU with a typical internal clock source at 16 MHz (internal RC oscillator).
• Memory 8 Kbytes of on-chip Flash program memory and 512 bytes of SRAM (split as 256 bytes iRAM and 256 bytes xRAM) for code and data storage.
• Analog 12-bit A/D converter with 10 input channels for precision sensor acquisition and analog signal monitoring.
• Timers and PWM Multiple timer/counters (8/16-bit), a basic interval timer, 16-bit PPG output and 8-bit PWM output for timing, waveform generation and simple motor/buzzer drive.
• Connectivity Integrated serial interfaces including 1× UART (8-bit), 1× SPI (8-bit) and 1× I2C (8-bit) for common peripheral and host communications.
• System Reliability and Reset On-chip Power-On Reset (POR), Low Voltage Reset (LVR), Low Voltage Interrupt (LVI) and Watchdog Timer (WDT) for robust startup and fault recovery.
• Clock and Power Supports internal and external oscillators, includes an on-chip LDO and multiple power-saving modes to support low-voltage systems (VDD/VCC 1.8–5.5 V).
• I/O and Packages Up to 18 programmable I/O lines in a 20-SOP (300 mil) surface-mount package; additional package options exist in the device family.
• Environmental Range Industrial temperature range from −40 °C to +85 °C for reliable operation across common embedded environments.

Typical Applications

• Small Home Appliances — Control of appliance functions, user interfaces and simple motor or buzzer actuation using integrated timers, PWM/PPG and I/O.
• Sensor Interface and Monitoring — Multi-channel 12-bit ADC enables precise acquisition from temperature, light or current sensors for embedded monitoring tasks.
• Consumer and Utility Devices — UART/SPI/I2C connectivity and on-chip Flash support firmware-driven features in consumer electronics and utility controllers.
• Battery-Powered Embedded Systems — Wide supply range (1.8–5.5 V) and power-saving modes support designs that require flexible power options.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated analog and digital peripherals: On-chip 12-bit ADC, timers, PWM/PPG and communication interfaces reduce external component requirements.
• Wide voltage operating range: 1.8–5.5 V support enables use across low-voltage and standard 5 V systems without additional power conversion.
• Compact memory footprint for control tasks: 8 Kbytes Flash and 512 bytes SRAM provide a compact code and data environment for embedded control firmware.
• Robust start-up and runtime protection: Built-in POR, LVR/LVI and watchdog functions improve system reliability during power events and fault conditions.
• Industrial temperature capability: −40 °C to +85 °C operation allows deployment in a wide set of embedded and appliance environments.
