The MC908QB8CDWE is a microcontroller integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by NXP Semiconductors. It is a member of the MC908QB8 family and is designed for embedded control applications. Here are its key features:
1. Microcontroller Core: The IC is built around an 8-bit S08 central processing unit (CPU) core, which is based on the HC08 instruction set architecture. The S08 core offers efficient and low-power processing, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
2. Memory: The MC908QB8CDWE features a Flash memory of 8 kilobytes (KB). This memory is non-volatile, which means that the stored data remains even when the power is turned off. The Flash memory allows for easy reprogramming of the microcontroller, enabling updates and bug fixes.
3. RAM and EEPROM: In addition to Flash memory, the IC also incorporates 512 bytes of random-access memory (RAM). RAM provides temporary storage for data and variables during program execution. Furthermore, it has 128 bytes of Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM), which supports reliable data retention with the ability to update individual memory locations
