The MC9S08PA32AVLD is a microcontroller unit (MCU) from the MC9S08PA family, manufactured by NXP Semiconductors. It is a 8-bit MCU designed for small scale embedded applications that require low power consumption without compromising performance.
Here are the key features of the MC9S08PA32AVLD:
1. Architecture: The MC9S08PA32AVLD is based on a modified Harvard architecture. It utilizes a single-cycle 8-bit CPU, which provides fast and efficient execution of instructions.
2. Processor Core: It is powered by the S08 core, which operates at a maximum frequency of 20 MHz, offering a good balance between power consumption and performance.
3. Memory: The MCU includes 32KB of flash memory for storing program code, and 2KB of random access memory (RAM) for holding data during runtime. The flash memory is non-volatile, enabling persistent storage of the program even when the power is turned off.
4. Peripherals: It comprises an array of integrated peripherals, including analog-to-digital converter (ADC), digital-to-analog converter (DAC), UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter), I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit), SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface), and timers. These peripherals enhance the MCU's capability to interface with external devices and expand its functionality
