Holtek announces the release of two new TinyPower LCD Flash MCUs, the HT69F350 and HT69F360, which can operate with operating voltages as low as 1.8V. The devices meet with full industrial specification requirements of -40°C~ 85°C operating temperature, have high noise immunity and are supplied in three package types namely 48/64/80-LQFP.
With their special Holtek TinyPower technology, abundant hardware resources and application flexibility, the devices will be highly capable of providing MCU solutions for battery applications and LCD display products such as display type remote controllers, household appliances, industrial control, panel displays and health products etc.
With regard to actual specific functions, these new devices include 8K/16K words of Flash Program Memory, 512/1024 bytes of Data Memory, 64/128 bytes of Data EEPROM and also contain a 144/192 pixel R-type and C-type LCD driver. Both devices use Holtek’s new Timer Modules which offer five different timer operating modes, namely Capture Input, Compare Match Output, Timer/Event counting, Single Pulse Output and PWM generation.
Two independent SPI and I2C interfaces are also included while the HT69F360 device includes an additional UART interface. By also including Holtek’s In-Application program technology, users have a convenient means with which to directly store their measured data in the Flash Program Memory as well as having the ability to update their application programs.
Holtek of course supplies a full suite of excellent hardware and software development tools. These include the HT-IDE300 development software as well as a hardware e-Link and OCDS structured MCUs, which when used together will provide a full range of debug functions such as breakpoint setting, trace analysis etc. With regard to device programming the Holtek supplied e-WriterPro programmer is also capable of implementing full In-Circuit Programming to allow for fast program updates and product development. There are also a range of application guides to ensure developers have their designs up and running in the shortest time possible.
