Features
• Two independent analog comparators
• Controlled current output
• 489 bytes of RAM
– 233 bytes of general-purpose register-based RAM
– 256 bytes of RAM mapped into the program memory space that can be
used as data RAM or executable RAM
• 4K/8K/16K bytes of ROM
Counter/Timers
• Special architecture to automate generation and reception of complex pulses
or signals:
– Programmable 8-bit counter/timer (T8) with two 8-bit capture registers and
two 8-bit load registers
– Programmable 16-bit counter/timer (T16) with one 16-bit capture register
pair and one 16-bit load register pair
– Programmable input glitch filter for pulse reception
• One general-purpose 8-bit counter/timer (T1) with 6-bit prescaler
Input/Output and Interrupts
• Thirty-two I/Os, twenty-nine of which are bidirectional I/Os with programmable
resistive pull-up transistors (24 I/Os are available in the 28-pin configuration)
• Sixteen I/Os are selectable as stop-mode recovery sources
• Six interrupt vectors with nine interrupt sources
– Three external sources
– Two comparator interrupts
– Three timer interrupts
– One low-battery detector flag
Operating Characteristics
• 8-MHz operation
• 2.3 V to 5.5 V operating voltage
• Low power consumption with three standby modes:
– Stop
