MC68HC000RC8

The MC68HC000RC8 is a single-core EC000 microprocessor from the MC68HC000 series, featuring a 32-bit core running at 8 MHz. It is supplied in a 68‑PGA (26.92 × 26.92 mm) through‑hole package and is qualified for consumer applications.

This device is targeted at embedded system designs that require a 32‑bit general-purpose processor with 5 V I/O and a consumer temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C. The device is RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Core and Architecture  EC000 core, single 32‑bit processing core suitable for general-purpose embedded computing.
• Clock Speed  8 MHz operating frequency for deterministic, low‑speed control and processing tasks.
• Supply and I/O Voltage  5 V I/O voltage compatible with legacy 5 V systems and peripherals.
• Package and Mounting  68‑PGA (26.92 × 26.92 mm) package in a 68‑BCPGA case, designed for through‑hole mounting to support robust mechanical connections.
• Qualification and Environmental  Consumer qualification with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C and RoHS compliance.
• Graphics  No dedicated graphics acceleration; focused on general-purpose processing as specified.

Typical Applications

• Consumer Electronics  Control and management functions in consumer devices that operate within a 0 °C to 70 °C range.
• Embedded Control  General-purpose processing for embedded systems requiring a 32‑bit core and 5 V I/O compatibility.
• Legacy Platform Support  Replacement or maintenance of existing systems using the M680x0 family form factor and electrical characteristics.
• Development and Education  Suitable for development boards and educational projects that work with through‑hole 68‑PGA packages and 5 V logic.
