The MSC1210Yx is a completely integrated family of mixed-signal devices incorporating a high-resolution delta-sigma ADC, 8-channel multiplexer, burnout current sources, selectable buffered input, offset DAC (digital-to-analog converter), PGA (programmable gain amplifier), temperature sensor, voltage reference, 8-bit microcontroller, Flash Program Memory, Flash Data Memory, and Data SRAM, as shown in Figure 8.

On-chip peripherals include an additional 32-bit accumulator, an SPI compatible serial port, dual USARTs, multiple digital input/output ports, watchdog timer, low-voltage detect, on-chip power-on reset, 16-bit PWM, and system timers, brownout reset, and three timer/counters.

The microcontroller core is 8051 instruction set compatible. The microcontroller core is an optimized 8051 core that executes up to three times faster than the standard 8051 core, given the same clock source. That makes it possible to run the device at a lower external clock frequency and achieve the same performance at lower power than the standard 8051 core.Read more
