Zilog Introduces the ZNEO32! 32-Bit Cost Effective MCU Product Family
April 25 2017 - 8:30AM
Zilog, a wholly-owned subsidiary of IXYS Corporation (NASDAQ:IXYS)
that specializes in application specific microcontroller (MCU)
solutions for the industrial, telecommunication, automotive, and
consumer markets, today announced the Z32F0642 – a new Cortex-M0
32-bit MCU. A cost effective and high performance microcontroller
that is ideal for motor control applications, this product family
expands Zilog’s portfolio of ZNEO32! 32-bit products.
The Z32F0642 MCU features 64KB of Flash memory,
4KB of SRAM, and operating frequencies up to 40MHz. It offers a
3-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) generator unit suitable for
inverter motor drive systems. A built-in 3-phase PWM generator can
control one inverter motor. One 12-bit high-speed analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) with 12-channel analog multiplexed inputs is
included to gather feedback from the motor. There are multiple
powerful external serial interfaces (1-channel SPI, 1-channel I2C,
and 2-channel UARTs) to communicate with on-board sensors and
devices.
The Z32F0642 can operate from a supply voltage
ranging from 2.2V to 5.5V. Other features include free run timer,
watchdog timer, on-chip RC-oscillator, power on reset, GPIOs,
hardware divider, and brownout detector. This new MCU is available
in a 32-pin (10-channel ADC) or 48-pin (12-channel ADC) low profile
quad flat package (LQFP).
“Many emerging applications require very low
power consumption microcontrollers that are fast and have the
flexibility to be used in a wide range of products. We in Zilog
continue expanding our 32-bit product families to offer our
customer a cost effective range of solutions. Zilog’s 32-bit
product families are fully supported, and the major development
tools are available, including Keil, IAR, and GCC,” remarked Steve
Darrough, Zilog’s VP of Marketing.
Well-suited applications include motor control
(BLDC, servos, stepper and DC motors), robotics, household
appliances (washing machines, dishwashers, and air conditioners),
building automation, industrial controls, smart lighting, Internet
of Things (IoT) devices, and sensor nodes.
Zilog’s Cortex-M0 Z32F0642 MCU is now available
for customers through the distribution channels. For more
