TS68C000VR8A

The TS68C000VR8A from Microchip Technology is a 68000-series microprocessor IC featuring a single 16/32-bit core running at 8 MHz. It is supplied in a 68-pin CPGA package with through-hole mounting and is targeted at embedded and industrial applications.

Key product attributes include 5 V I/O, an industrial-grade operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, RoHS compliance, and a 68-CPGA package dimension of 26.92 × 26.92 mm.

Key Features

• Core and Architecture Single 68000 core with a 16/32-bit bus width, supporting classic 68000 architecture use cases.
• Clock Speed 8 MHz operating frequency for deterministic, low-speed embedded processing.
• Voltage I/O 5 V I/O supply level, suitable for designs that require standard TTL/CMOS interfacing.
• Industrial Grade Specified grade: Industrial, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C for extended-environment applications.
• Package and Mounting 68-CPGA package (26.92 × 26.92 mm) in a through-hole mounting format (68-BCPGA case), facilitating board-level assembly and replacement.
• Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant to support regulatory requirements for lead-free assembly.
• Graphics Acceleration No graphics acceleration—designed as a general-purpose processor core rather than a graphics processor.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Systems Acts as a main processor for embedded control applications that require a 68000 core and a 16/32-bit data path.
• Industrial Control Industrial-grade temperature range and 5 V I/O make it suitable for control and automation equipment operating in extended environments.
• Board-Level Integration Through-hole 68-CPGA packaging supports prototyping, assembly, or refurbishment of legacy and custom PCBs.

Unique Advantages

• Proven 68000 Core: Single 16/32-bit core provides a familiar architecture for designs that leverage 68000-series software and toolchains.
• Industrial Temperature Range: Rated from -40°C to 85°C, enabling deployment in environments with wide ambient temperature variation.
• Through-Hole CPGA Packaging: 68-CPGA (26.92 × 26.92 mm) with through-hole mounting simplifies board replacement and assembly processes.
• Standard 5 V I/O: 5 V logic levels support integration with existing TTL/CMOS peripheral ecosystems.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets lead-free manufacturing requirements for environmentally conscious production.
