RS08
|
 Freescale’s RS08 MCU core is a reduced version of the S08 central processing unit (CPU) that has been specifically designed for small pin-count devices with under 16KB memory. Thirty percent smaller than the S08 CPU, it is more efficient and cost-effective for simple electro-mechanical devices that are migrating to fully solid-state electronic operation or portable devices that have evolved into smaller or even disposable versions.

56800
|
 The Freescale 56800/E family offers up to 120 MIPS processor performance at 120MHz. It combines, on a single chip, the processing power of a digital signal processor (DSP) and the functionality of a microcontroller (MCU) with a flexible set of peripherals to create a cost-effective solution. DSCs possess fast interrupt times, control flexible sets of peripherals and general purpose I/O, and can run compact code that would be unavailable on a standalone DSP.
