MC96F8208SM

The MC96F8208S is an 8-bit CMOS microcontroller based on a high-speed 8051 core, designed for embedded control applications. It combines on-chip Flash program memory with integrated analog and digital peripherals to simplify system design for small appliances and general embedded controllers.

With 8 Kbytes of on-chip Flash, 512 bytes of SRAM, a 12-bit A/D converter, multiple timers and PWM outputs, and a wide 1.8–5.5 V supply range, the device targets compact, low-power control designs that require reliable analog measurement and standard serial interfaces.

Key Features

• Core & Performance High-speed 8051-compatible 8-bit CPU running with an internal 16 MHz RC oscillator (±1.5% at TA = 0–+50°C) and support for an external oscillator.
• Memory 8 Kbytes of on-chip Flash program memory and 512 bytes (0.5 Kbytes) of SRAM for code and runtime data storage.
• Analog 12-bit A/D converter with 8 channels for precise analog sensor measurement and signal monitoring.
• Timers & PWM Multiple timer/counter options including 8/16-bit timers, a basic interval timer, 16-bit PPG and 8-bit PWM outputs, plus a buzzer driver for timing and motor or audio control tasks.
• Serial Interfaces Standard embedded interfaces including UART (1-channel), SPI (1-channel) and I2C (1-channel) for communication with peripherals, sensors and host systems.
• System Reliability & Reset On-chip Power-On Reset (POR), Low-Voltage Reset (LVR/LVI) and Watchdog Timer (WDT) with a dedicated RC oscillator (~5 kHz) to improve system robustness.
• Power & Low-Power Modes Wide operating voltage range (1.8–5.5 V) and built-in power saving modes to reduce consumption in battery-powered or always-on applications.
• Package & I/O Surface-mount 16-SOPN (150 mil) package with 14 programmable I/O lines for compact board designs.
• Operating Range Industrial temperature range from −40 to +85 °C for reliable operation across demanding environments.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control Systems Central controller for small embedded products requiring mixed-signal measurement, timing and serial communication.
• Small Home Appliances Control and user-interface tasks in appliances where integrated timers, PWM and ADC reduce external component count.
• Sensor Interfacing and Monitoring Analog sensing and signal conversion using the 12-bit ADC combined with serial buses for downstream communication.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated peripheral set: On-chip ADC, multiple timers, PWM, UART, SPI and I2C reduce BOM and simplify PCB layout.
• Flexible power envelope: 1.8–5.5 V operation supports a wide range of system power architectures and battery options.
• Compact package: 16-SOPN surface-mount package enables small form-factor designs while providing necessary I/O.
• Robust operation: POR, LVR/LVI and WDT provide baseline protection and recovery mechanisms for reliable field operation.
• Precision analog input: 12-bit A/D converter (8 channels) supports accurate sensor readings for control and monitoring functions.
