The MagnaChip 8 bit flash MCU line will be used in major applications for white goods, such as air conditioners, washing machines and microwave ovens. This product kit supports a wide range of package types from 16 pin to 64 pin, allowing MagnaChip to effectively respond to diverse customer requirements. This line offers embedded flash memory allowing for ease of development. Additionally, these products all offer In System Programming (ISP) through Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitters (UART), and support 10bit ADC.
Following are some specific features of the new line: -- The 4K flash product offers Internal Resistor Capacitance (IRC), which eliminates the need to use an external resistor or capacitor, and has Power On Reset (POR) embedded, both of which make this product highly cost efficient for MagnaChip's customers. Further, since UART is embedded in this product it can support the ISP of some high-end products. -- The 16K offering is a 32 pin product and can utilize up to 30 I/Os. -- The 24K and 48K products can support up to 2 UARTs and provide networking capability with other devices. The 24K and 48K products can also facilitate home networking capabilities.
Channy Lee, Executive Vice President of Products of MagnaChip Semiconductor, commented, "MagnaChip's new product kit supports a wide range of package types, which respond to our diverse customer requirements. The new line will allow our customers to produce newer, smarter appliances. Further, we are excited that these products will offer cost effective production technologies that actually shorten development time."
