ADUCRF101: precision analog microcontroller with ISM band transceiver

Analog Devices, Inc. announces the release of the ADuCRF101, a fully integrated System On Chip (SOC) solution designed for low power wireless applications.

The ADuCRF101 integrates a low power Cortex-M3 core from ARM. It is a 32-bit RISC machine, offering up to 1.25 DMIPS peak performance. The Cortex-M3 MCU also has a flexible 14-channel DMA controller. 128k Bytes of non-volatile Flash/EE and 16k Bytes of SRAM are also provided on-chip. packaged in a 9 mm x 9 mm LFCSP.

The UHF transceiver operates using 2FSK/GFSK/OOK in the frequency bands 861MHz to 928MHz and 431MHz to 464MHz. Datarates from 1kbps to 300kbps are supported.

The SOC also integrates a range of on-chip peripherals including UART, I2C and SPI Serial I/O communication controllers, 6-Channel ADC, a 29-Pin GPIO Port, 8-Channel PWM, 2 General Purpose Timers, Wake-up Timer and System Watchdog Timer.

On-chip factory firmware supports in-circuit serial download via UART interface. Non-intrusive emulation and in-circuit download is supported via the serial wire interface. These features are incorporated into a low-cost Development System supporting this Precision Analog Microcontroller family.

The part operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V and are specified over an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

The datasheet is available for download, as well as a related video from Electronica 2010.
