FAQ

What debugging interface is supported?

The device supports Spy?Bi?Wire (SBW) programming and debug. SBW uses a two?wire connection for programming and real?time debug access without requiring a full JTAG header.

Which serial protocols are available?

On?chip USCI provides flexible serial connectivity that supports UART, SPI and I2C modes, enabling communication with sensors, memory and host interfaces using the same hardware block.

What analog performance is provided?

The microcontroller includes a 10?bit ADC for single?ended analog measurements. This ADC is suitable for typical sensor interfaces and precision up to 10 bits for conversion and control tasks.

How does it help with low?power designs?

Multiple low?power modes allow the MCU to remain in deep sleep between events. Combined with a low operating voltage range, this reduces average current draw and extends battery life in intermittent?active systems.

Which package and temperature range apply?

This part ships in a 32?pin RHB package suitable for compact PCBs and supports industrial temperatures from ?40 ??C to 85 ??C for robust operation in field environments.
