We offer several different
microcontrollers to meet a
variety of needs. The ZX-24
series are 24-pin
DIP "Stamp" format devices
that are pin compatible with
the Basic Stamp 2 and BX-
24. The ZX-40 series and
ZX-328 series
are 40-pin and 28-pin DIP
devices, respectively, that
are easy to use in
prototypes. The ZX-44 series
and ZX-32 series
are 44-pin and 32-pin TQFP
devices, respectively,
primarily intended for
volume production. And, for
applications requiring more
I/O, RAM and other resources,
we offer the ZX-1281 and ZX-1280.
For more demanding
applications, we offer
the "native mode" devices:
ZX-24n, ZX-24s, ZX-40n,
ZX-40s, ZX-44n, ZX-44s,
ZX-328n, ZX-32n, ZX-1281n and
ZX-1280n.
These devices are pin
compatible with their VM-
mode counterparts and are
also largely source code
compatible. Because they run
native object code for the
processor, the execution
speed is significantly faster.
Moreover, with native mode
devices it is possible to write
interrupt handler code and to
use inline assembly code
when necessary.
For low-voltage applications,
we offer the ZX-328l and
ZX-32l; both are native mode
devices that can
run with a supply voltage from
2.75 to 5.5 volts.
The xmega-based devices
(ZX-24x, ZX-32a4 and ZX128a1)
can operate with a supply
voltage between
2.6 and 3.3 volts and run at
an internal clock rate of 29.5MHz. |
