The microcontroller's Memory Protection Unit (MPU) and fast, flexible interrupt controller support the latest real-time operating systems. The Secure Access Unit (SAU) with MPU provide enhanced security and integrity. Higher computation capability is achieved using a rich set of DSP instructions.
The microcontroller embeds state-of-the-art picoPower technology for ultra-low power consumption. A combination of power control techniques bring active current consumption down to 165µA/MHz and leakage down to 9nA while still retaining a bank of backup registers. The device offers a wide range of trade-offs between functionality and power consumption to reach the lowest possible power usage for the application's required feature set.
Feature
- Arithmetic performance — Integrated FPU increases precision and dynamic range in digital signal processing.
- High data throughput — Peripheral DMA, multi-layered databus and large on-chip SRAM remove bottlenecks in high-speed communication.
- Low power consumption — picoPower® technology delivers the industry's lowest power consumption in active and sleep modes.
- Software Library — All UC3 devices are supported by AVR Software Framework, a complete library of device drivers and middleware.
