16-Bit Microcontroller with Infrared Module
General Description
The MAXQ61C is a low-power, 16-bit MAXQ® micro-
controller designed for low-power applications including
universal remote controls, consumer electronics, and
white goods. The device combines a powerful 16-bit
RISC microcontroller and integrated peripherals includ-
ing two universal synchronous/asynchronous receiver-
transmitters (USARTs) and an SPI™ master/slave com-
munications port, along with an IR module with carrier
frequency generation and flexible port I/O capable of
multiplexed keypad control.
The device includes 80KB of ROM memory and 2KB of
data SRAM.
For the ultimate in low-power battery-operated perfor-
mance, the device includes an ultra-low-power stop
mode (0.2µA typ). In this mode, the minimum amount of
circuitry is powered. Wake-up sources include external
interrupts, the power-fail interrupt, and a timer interrupt.
The microcontroller runs from a wide 1.70V to 3.6V oper-
ating voltage.
