MC68HC000EI16R2

The MC68HC000EI16R2 is a single-core, 32‑bit microprocessor from the MC68HC000 series, optimized for embedded and consumer applications. Based on the EC000 core/architecture and rated for 16 MHz operation, it targets compact, surface‑mount designs that require a classic M68000‑family instruction set and straightforward integration.

This device delivers a 32‑bit internal architecture, a 16‑Mbyte linear addressing model and object‑code compatibility with the M68000 family, enabling reuse of existing code and development tools in embedded consumer systems.

Key Features

• Core & Architecture — EC000 core with a single 32‑bit processor core providing the M68000 family instruction set and a 16‑Mbyte linear addressing range.
• Register Set & Instruction Support — Includes the M68000 architecture register model (eight 32‑bit address registers and eight 32‑bit data registers) and the family’s instruction and addressing mode support as documented for the series.
• Clock Speed — 16 MHz rated operating frequency for predictable embedded timing and control tasks.
• Power & Voltage — I/O voltage 5 V; supports static operation characteristics described for the series, including static design benefits.
• Package & Mounting — 68‑lead PLCC surface‑mount package (68‑PLCC, 24.21 × 24.21 mm) with J‑lead 68‑LCC package case option noted in supplier data.
• Operating Range — Consumer qualification with operating temperature range 0 °C to 70 °C.
• Standards & Compliance — RoHS compliant.
• Graphics — No graphics acceleration; suitable for control, I/O and general embedded processing tasks.

Typical Applications

• Portable Consumer Devices — Battery‑powered handhelds and consumer electronics that require a compact 32‑bit MPU and established software support.
• Embedded Control — Control and I/O processing in embedded systems where a single 32‑bit core and static operation are beneficial.
• Legacy M68000 Systems — Systems and products leveraging M68000 family code and toolchains that need a compatible MPU footprint and instruction set.
• Handheld Instruments — Portable measuring equipment and electronic games that benefit from the series’ small package options and low‑power design approaches described for the family.

Unique Advantages

• 32‑Bit Static Architecture: The EC000 32‑bit internal architecture delivers familiar M68000‑family behavior and deterministic processing for embedded control.
• Code and Toolchain Reuse: Object‑code compatibility with the M68000 family enables reuse of existing software assets and established development tools.
• Compact Surface‑Mount Package: 68‑PLCC (24.21 × 24.21 mm) surface‑mount package reduces board area while supporting robust assembly processes.
• Consumer‑Grade Qualification: Designed and specified for 0 °C to 70 °C operation to match typical consumer product environments.
• RoHS Compliant: Conforms to RoHS requirements to support modern manufacturing and regulatory needs.
