8-bit General Purpose GB MCUs

S08GB Not Recommended for New Designs
  • This page contains information on a product that is not recommended for new designs.

The MC9S08GB family are members of the cost-effective, high-performance S08 general purpose 8-bit microcontrollers. All MCUs in the family use the enhanced S08 core and are available with a variety of modules, memory sizes, memory types and package types.

The S08 family is an extension of the HC08 family, offering extended battery life with maximum performance down to 1.8-volt, high-performance flash and innovative development support.

    • 1.8V operation
  • High performance when needed
    • 50 ns minimum instruction cycle time down to 2.1V at 20 MHz bus
    • 125 ns minimum instruction cycle time down to 1.8V at 8 MHz bus
  • C-optimized architecture with multiply and divide instructions

On-Chip Debug Interface

  • Single-wire background debug mode

    • 32 kHz to 16 MHz external crystal/resonator
    • Internal clock generator
    • External clock

10-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC)

  • Eight-channel ADC
  • 14 µs, 10-bit single conversion time

Timer with Eight Programmable Channels

  • Three-channel and five-channel, 16-bit timer systems
  • Each channel programmable for
    • Input capture, output compare or buffered pulse-width modulator (PWM)
    • PWM can be edge-or center-aligned
  • 16-bit free-running or up/down (CPWM) count operation

Extensive Serial Communications

  • Dual asynchronous SCIs
    • Flexible 13-bit module-based baud rate generators
    • Double-buffered receive and transmit
  • Synchronous SPI
    • Up to 5 Mbps
  • Inter-IC (I²C) bus
    • Multicontroller operation
    • 256 clock options

System Protection

  • Selectable low-voltage detect/reset at nominal 1.8V

  • COP watchdog timer

56 Input/Output (I/O) Lines

  • Programmable pull-ups
  • High-current drivers
  • Eight keyboard interrupts
  • Controlled rise/fall times minimize noise
