Official Description
The 56F8167 is member of the 56800E core-based family of controllers. Each combines, on a single chip, the processing powe r of a Digital Signal Processor (D SP) and the functionality of a microcontroller with a flexible se t of peripherals to create an extr emely cost-effective solution. Because of its low cost, configurati on flexibility, and compact progr am code, the 56F8167 is well-suited for many applications. The device includes many peripherals that are especially useful for motion control, smart appliances, steppers, encoders, tachometers, limit switches, power supply and control, engine manageme nt, noise suppression, remote utility metering, industrial control for power, lighting, and automation applications.
The 56800E core is based on a Harvard-style architecture consisting of three execution units operating in parallel, allowing as many as sixoperations per instruction cycle.The MCU-style programming model and optimized instruction set allow straightforward generation of efficien t, compact DSP and control code. The instruction set is also highly efficient for C/C++ Compilers to enable rapid development of optimized control applications.
The 56F8167 support program execution from internal or external memories. Two data operands can be accessed from the on-chip data RAM per instruction cycle. These devices also provide two external dedicated interrupt lines and up to 76General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) lines, depending on peripheral configuration.
