Energy Micro has announced availability of its EFM32 Gecko and Tiny Gecko product lines in a QFP64 package. The new 64-pin devices are targeted at the growing smart metering market, in addition to energy sensitive applications like building automation, security systems and portable health and fitness equipment. The introduction of the larger I/O count package adds 12 new product variants to the company’s ARM Cortex-M3 based microcontroller portfolio. The EFM32G232, EFM32G842, EFM32TG232 and EFM32TG842, which are available in various configurations of Flash memory ranging from 8 to 128 KB and RAM from 2 to 16 KB, offer the same energy-saving Gecko technology as other package options in the EFM32 MCU range.
