Low-power 32-bit MCUs

29 September 2010 DSP, Micros & Memory

Atmel has endowed its 32-bit AVR UC3L microcontroller with picoPower technology and embedded capacitive touch controller peripherals. With 1,5 DMIPS per MHz, target applications include audio processing applications such as USB and Bluetooth headsets, game pads and advanced voice or touch-enabled human interface devices. Housed in a 5,5 x 5,5 mm TLLGA package, the new MCUs have static power consumption of 9 nA and active power consumption of 165 μA/MHz. The power saving is enabled by Atmel’s picoPower technology that addresses all aspects of a microcontroller’s power consumption, including active operation modes as well as all sleep modes. The enabling technology innovations include peripheral SleepWalking, where peripherals can operate in extremely low-power states and make qualified decisions during CPU sleep.
