The Power of 0.9 (Click)

The C8051F9xx is a new low cost low power 8-bit MCUs operated at 0.9 V, with 64 Kbytes of flash, 4 Kbytes of SRAM housed in 4mmx4mm package t. This means a true single-cell battery solution. The device has a typical sleep-mode current of less than 50 nA and active-mode current is as low as 170 µA/MHz and total of 65 mW of power consumption.

Also have a 10-bit 300-ksample/s A/D converter, a smart RTC, and hardware enhanced UART, SPI and SMBus serial ports, and cost only 2 USD when buying 10,000 pieces. At 25 MHz operating frequency, it can deliver up to 25 MIPS due to the novel pipelined architecture. Click the title for a chance to win a development kit.
