STMicro Introduces 20 Cents MCU in 8-Pin Package

STMicro has launched STM8S001J3, a new 8-bit micro-controller that sells for $0.20 per unit in 10k quantities. STM8S001J3 is also the first STM8 MCU offered in 8-pin package (SO8N), and should compete with some of the Microchip Attiny or PIC12F series micro-controllers.

STM8S001J3 has small package and little number of pins, but still it embeds rich set of peripherals. Below some of key features of this device:

• Core and system
  • Flexible clock control capable to use three clock sources: 2 internal (HSI 16MHz, LSI 128kHz), 1 external clock input.
  • Wide operating voltage range: from 2.95V to 5.5V
  • 5 I/Os
  • 8- and 16-bit timers
• Memories
  • 8k Flash
  • 1k RAM
  • 128 Bytes EEPROM
• Conenctivity and debug
  • UART
  • SPI
  • I2C
  • Single Wire Interface Module
• Analog
  • 10-bit ADC with 3 channels
