AVR XMEGA 8/16-bit High Performance Low Power Flash Microcontrollers Atmel® introduces the XMEGA™ – a brand new AVR® microcontroller. With the same acclaimed characteristics as the established AVR devices, the XMEGA operates from just 1.6 volt with up to 32 MIPS at 32 MHz. Time critical real-time and interrupt driven applications become safer, more responsive, and predictable with XMEGA. AVR XMEGA features a CPU independent Event System, DMA controller, and Multilevel Interrupt Controller. With multiple time bases, extreme communication bandwidth and special features like Cryptography support, XMEGA is number one for demanding 8- and 16-bit embedded applications. At the same time XMEGA’s 2nd generation picoPower™ technology with only 100 nA sleep current is the best choice for battery operated and energy critical applications. AVR XMEGA microcontrollers are the perfect solution for a wide range of applications.

Applications
Innovative Event System for fast, CPU independent inter-peripheral communication 4-channel DMA Controller boosts MCU performance 100% predictable timing High-speed 12-bit ADC (2Msps) and DAC (1Msps) Fast AES and DES crypto engine 2nd generation of picoPower technology
Industrial control Climate control Hand-held battery Factory automation ZigBee® Power tools Sensors Motor control
HVAC Wireless encryption Networking Metering Optical transceivers Medical applications Alarm systems White goods
Benefits Event System - Like a reflex in the human body, the innovative XMEGA Event System enables inter-peripheral communication without CPU or DMA usage. This ensures 100% predictable and short response time. Up to 8 simultaneous events or interrupt conditions in the peripherals can automatically start actions in other peripherals. Real 12-bit ADC and DAC - For high analog accuracy the XMEGA features high-speed 12-bit analog peripherals. Capable of up to 2 Msps, XMEGA’s ADCs deliver the fastest sample rate and most accurate result compared to conventional MCUs. Since XMEGA also features two 12bit digital-to-analog converters (DAC) with up to 1 Msps and four advanced analog comparators, XMEGA microcontrollers have leading analog integration. DMA Controller - A 4-channel DMA Controller enables fast, CPU independent data transfer that significantly boosts performance. The DMA Controller in XMEGA handles transfers between all combinations of data memories and peripherals. The AVR CPU register file and multiple bus layers ensures that the data bus is always accessible for the XMEGA DMA Controller. Programmable Multilevel Interrupt Controller - All peripherals have software selectable interrupt levels and different interrupt vectors. Important interrupts are executed immediately and tasks are prioritized with minimum latency. Second Generation picoPower - Atmel’s picoPower technology have proven to be the industry leader in low power designs. With the 2nd generation picoPower technology, XMEGA MCUs run a Real-Time Counter, Watchdog Timer and Brown-out Detector with only 2 ìA current consumption. The XMEGA also incorporates true 1.6 volt operation and elements like dynamic clock switching, and frequency scaling for optimal power management.

The C8051F7xx family of high pin-count MCUs is Silicon Labs’ first MCU family to feature the patent-pending capacitance-to-digital converter (CDC). This enables easy replacement of traditional mechanical switches with capacitive touch sense capability in any product requiring a high performance, high pin-count MCU.
Microcontroller
C8051F7xx MCU features high pin count Ease of touch sense design replaces traditional switch solutions The C8051F700’s new touch sense capability is accurate, responsive, and reliable. The CDC will output samples with industry leading speed at 40 µs per sample and its new architecture is inherently immune to noise. This means sophisticated touch sense features such as buttons, wheels, and sliders will operate with no apparent lag, delay, or false touches. The C8051F700 MCU family also offers an array of features that allow design of most products with a single MCU. The C8051F700 is truly a complete system on a chip. The C8051F700 MCU is a great compliment to other products from Silicon Labs. In a set-top box application, for example, the C8051F700 can be used in a variety of capacitive touch sense tasks including front-panel interface and display. The EZRadioPRO™ product can be used for the remote control interface. Other Silicon Labs to consider for a set-top box application include: ISOmodems (communications), Powerover-Ethernet (power), low-power/low-voltage MCUs (power/ system management) and a satellite receiver.

IAR Embedded Workbench
IAR Embedded Workbench is a set of development tools for building and debugging embedded applications using assembler, C and C++. IAR Embedded Workbench incorporates the IAR C/C++ Compiler, assembler, linker, librarian, text editor, project manager and C-SPY® Debugger into one integrated development environment (IDE). In a continuous workflow, you can create source files and projects, build applications and debug them in a simulator or on hardware. IAR Embedded Workbench offers the same intuitive user interface regardless of which microcontroller you have chosen to work with—coupled with general and targetspecific support for each device. Every IAR C/C++ Compiler contains both generic global optimizations as well as low-level chip-specific optimizations that ensure a small code size while taking advantage of all the specific features of your selected device. Reuse of code and migration to new microcontroller architectures is made easy as each IAR C/C++ Compiler uses the same naming convention. Whether you have a tight project schedule or are just eager to get started, IAR Embedded Workbench contains configuration files, code examples and template projects to get you going fast.
Key Features: Fully integrated development environment for building and debugging embedded applications Automatic checking of MISRA C rules for security-critical applications State-of-the-art C-SPY Debugger Extensive support for various hardware debug systems and real-time operating systems (RTOS) with built-in or 3rd party plug-ins Flying start with ready-made device configuration files, code and project examples Same use interface for all supported MCU architectures Tight integration with other products from IAR Systems
