Intel MCS 96
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Intel MCS 96 is a family of microcontrollers (MCU) commonly used in embeded systems. The family is often referred to as the 8xC196 family, or 80196, the most popular MCU in the family. These MCUs are commonly used in hard disk drives, modems, printers, pattern recognition and motor control.
The family of microcontrollers are 16 bit, however they do have some 32 bit operations. The operates at 16, 20, 25, and 50 MHz, amd is sperated into 3 smaller families. The HSI (high speed input) family operates at 16 and 20MHZ, the HSO (high speed output) family operates at 16 and 20MHz, and the EPA (event processor array) family operates at all of the frequencies.
The main fetures of the MSC 96 family is on-chip memory, Resister-to-register architecture, three operand instructions, bus controller to allow 8 or 16 bit bus widths, flat addressablility of large register files.
