ATTINY13V-10SSU

Overview

The ATTINY13V-10SSU is an 8-bit AVR microcontroller from Microchip Technology, featuring a high-performance RISC architecture with up to 20 MIPS throughput at 20 MHz. It integrates 1 KB of In-System Programmable Flash, 64 bytes of EEPROM, and 64 bytes of SRAM. The device supports operation voltages from 1.8V to 5.5V and includes peripheral features such as a 4-channel 10-bit ADC, an 8-bit Timer/Counter with two PWM channels, and an on-chip analog comparator. It utilizes the S8S1 package (8-lead JEDEC SOIC) and operates within an industrial temperature range.

Feature Summary

• Advanced RISC Architecture: Executes most instructions in a single clock cycle using 32 general-purpose working registers for efficient code execution.
• Non-volatile Memory: Provides 1K Bytes of self-programmable Flash, 64 Bytes of EEPROM, and 64 Bytes of internal SRAM with high endurance ratings.
• Peripheral Integration: Includes a 4-channel 10-bit ADC with internal voltage reference, an 8-bit Timer/Counter with PWM outputs, and an on-chip analog comparator.
• Low Power Operation: Supports multiple power-saving modes including Idle, ADC Noise Reduction, and Power-down, with active current consumption optimized for battery applications.

Applications

• Battery-powered consumer electronics requiring low voltage operation
• Simple sensor interfaces utilizing the integrated ADC
• Basic control systems employing PWM outputs
• Industrial monitoring devices operating in extended temperature ranges

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix SSU corresponds to the 8-lead JEDEC SOIC package with matte tin finish before procurement. Confirm that the speed grade 10 indicates a maximum frequency of 10 MHz at 2.7V–5.5V and 4 MHz at 1.8V–5.5V. Ensure compatibility with the intended supply voltage range, as the V-series supports 1.8V operation unlike the standard ATtiny13. Check for any revision-specific errata regarding EEPROM write operations below 1.9V if applicable to your design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 8-pin solution is required for low-cost, low-power applications. The ATTINY13V-10SSU is suitable for designs needing 1KB of program memory and basic analog capabilities. Consider the S8S1 package for surface-mount assembly. Evaluate the trade-off between the lower maximum frequency of the '10' speed grade and the wider low-voltage operating range compared to higher-speed variants.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ATtiny13 family of 8-bit AVR microcontrollers manufactured by Microchip Technology. It shares the core architecture with other members like the ATTINY13A but differs in speed grades and voltage specifications. The 'V' designation indicates support for 1.8V operation, while the '10' denotes the 10MHz speed rating. The SSU suffix specifies the 8-lead SOIC package with environmental compliance.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements include ATTINY13V-10SU (EIAJ SOIC package) or ATTINY13V-10PU (PDIP package). For higher performance, ATTINY13A-SSU offers up to 20MHz operation but requires a minimum voltage of 2.7V. Verify fuse settings and bootloader configurations when migrating between these variants.

FAQ

What is the difference between ATTINY13V and ATTINY13?

The ATTINY13V supports a lower operating voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V, whereas the standard ATTINY13 operates from 2.7V to 5.5V. Both share similar feature sets and architectures.

How does the speed grade '10' affect performance?

The '10' speed grade indicates a maximum clock frequency of 10 MHz at voltages between 2.7V and 5.5V, and up to 4 MHz at 1.8V to 5.5V. This limits the maximum instruction throughput compared to higher speed grades like '20'.

Is the ATTINY13V-10SSU RoHS compliant?

Yes, all packages for this device are Pb-free, halide-free, and fully green, complying with the European directive for Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS).
