Scenix

Scenix Introduces 8-bit 100MIP Microcontroller

Company:  

Scenix Semiconductor

Category:  

Microcontroller Cores (new products)

Date:  

19-Oct-1998
Santa Clara, Calif. (microcontroller.com) - Scenix Semiconductor  introduced two new microcontrollers today, p/ns SX18AC100 and SX28AC100, each capable of 100MHz operation and a 10ns instruction cycle time .

The Scenix SX family is manufactured in an 0.5µ CMOS process. The microcontroller family has a 4-stage pipeline, a modified Harvard architecture, and a RISC-style instruction set. Interrupt latency is 3 cycles.

Features
p/ns: SX18AC100, SX28AC100

  • 8-bit RISC Core - Register-based architecture
  • 5V operation
  • 2Kx12 Flash Memory
  • 136x8 SRAM
  • 8-bit Watchdog Timer
  • 8-bit Timer with Prescaler
  • Analog comparator
  • Power-On Reset (POR)
  • Brownout Detector (4.2V trigger)
  • 8-pin Multiple Input Wakeup (MIWU)
  • Virtual Peripherals (software configurable) include SCI, SPI, I2C, DRAM Drivers, others. Contact Scenix for more information on V.P.s available.
  • Packages SX18AC100: 18-pin DIP, 18-pin SOIC
  • Packages SX28AC100: 28-pin DIP, 28-pin SOIC

Pricing and Availability
The SX18AC100 and the SX28AC100 are sampling now. Production quantities will be available first quarter 1999. Pricing is $5 for "small quantities".

For more information on these products, contact Scenix Semiconductor.

Code Compatibility
The SX18AC100 and SX28AC100 are code-compatible with other Scenix SX microcontrollers.

Development Tools
In-circuit emulators and compilers are available directly from Scenix, as well as Parallax Inc. In Asia, development tools are available from COMFILE.

About Scenix Semiconductor
Scenix Semiconductor, Inc. is headquartered in Santa Clara, Calif. Founded in 1996, the company's mission is to deliver high-performance, cost-effective, easy-to-use single-chip solutions for embedded systems. Scenix announced the SX Series family of microcontrollers in August 1997 and shipped the first production parts in late December 1997.
