ATTINY12V-1SC

Overview

The ATTINY12V-1SC is an 8-bit microcontroller based on the AVR RISC architecture, manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 1 KByte of Flash program memory and 64 Bytes of In-System Programmable EEPROM data memory. The device supports a maximum clock frequency of 1.2 MHz and operates within a voltage range of 1.8 V to 5.5 V. It is housed in an 8-lead Plastic Gull-Wing Small Outline (SOIC) package.

Feature Summary

• High-performance 8-bit RISC architecture with up to 8 MIPS throughput at 8 MHz
• Nonvolatile memory including 1K Byte Flash and 64 Bytes EEPROM
• Integrated peripheral features such as an 8-bit Timer/Counter and Analog Comparator
• Low-power operation with Idle and Power-down modes

Applications

• Embedded control applications requiring low power consumption
• Battery-powered devices utilizing extended standby capabilities
• Simple sensor interfaces using pin change interrupts
• Basic communication protocols via SPI port programming

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm that the specific ordering code matches the required speed grade and package type. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if lead-free packaging is necessary for the intended assembly process. Check for any obsolescence notices regarding new design recommendations.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-cost, low-pin-count solution is required for basic control tasks. Consider the 1.8 V minimum operating voltage for battery-sensitive designs. Evaluate the limited I/O count against system requirements before finalizing the selection. Compare performance metrics against higher-speed variants if processing demands exceed current specifications.
