NXP Semiconductors Kinetis K8x 32-bit Microcontrollers

NXP Semiconductors Kinetis K8x 32-bit Microcontrollers, based on the Arm® Cortex®-M4 core, are pin, peripheral, and software compatible with the Kinetis Kx MCU family. Kinetis K8x MCUs also offer symmetric cryptographic acceleration as a standard feature along with full-speed USB 2.0 On-The-Go (OTG), including options for crystal-less device functionality. K8x MCUs have 256KB of embedded flash and 256KB SRAM. In addition the integrated QuadSPI interface supports connectionsto non-volatile memory (serial NOR), allowing developers to expand beyond the boundaries of a traditional MCU.

Features

  • CPU and system cache reduce latency of memory resources, lowering power consumption and improving performance
  • Separate I/O power domain for up to 14 pins allow operations without the need for external level translators
  • FlexIO peripheral expands MCU capabilities by emulating serial, parallel, or custom interfaces using software drivers provided by the Kinetis SDK
  • Low-power operation with dynamic currents down to 220uA/MHz, state retention stop mode down to 5.5uA with fast wake-up time and lowest power mode with only 340nA
  • Faster time to market with comprehensive enablement solutions, including SDK (drivers, libraries, stacks), IDE, ROM bootloader, RTOS, online community, and more
  • Boot ROM to support encrypted firmware updates
  • Automatic decryption and execution from external NOR flash memory
  • Hardware AES acceleration with side band attack protection
  • Support for public key cryptography

Applications

  • Building control
  • Home automation and security
  • IoT data concentrators
  • Point-of-sale
  • Portable healthcare
  • Smart energy gateways
  • Wearables
