NEC ANNOUNCES 14 NEW 8-BIT MICROCONTROLLERS FOR ENERGY EFFICIENT LIGHTING APPLICATIONS
78K0/Ix2 8-bit Microcontrollers designed fluorescent and LED lighting
Last Edited: 30-Dec-2008

78K0/Ix2 8-bit Microcontrollers designed specifically for fluorescent and LED lighting devices requiring low cost, high efficiency and intelligent control. 78K0/Ix2 devices stand apart from the competition by having two unique 16-bit timers with high-speed pulse-width modulation (PWM) output, three channels of internal comparators, a one-channel operational amplifier with programmable gains and an extended operating temperature range of -40 to +105 degrees Celsius.

The 14-device lineup includes 78K0/IY2 MCUs in 16-pin packages, 78K0/IA2 MCUs in 20-pin packages and 78K0/IB2 MCUs in 30-pin packages. NEC Electronics’ 78K0/Ix2 MCUs are well positioned to take on the challenges of controlling fluorescent and LED-based lighting systems by offering outstanding features in a single chip
