C8051T606-GMR

Overview

The C8051T606-GMR is a mixed-signal microcontroller from the C8051T60x series, featuring an 8-bit CIP-51 core with pipelined architecture. It includes 1.5 kB byte-programmable EPROM and 128 bytes of internal data RAM. The device operates at up to 25 MHz using an internal oscillator with ±2% accuracy or external clock sources. It supports a supply voltage range of 1.8 V to 3.6 V and functions within a temperature range of –40 °C to +85 °C. The component is housed in a 2 x 2 mm QFN10 package.

Feature Summary

• Integrated on-chip debug circuitry facilitates full-speed, non-intrusive in-system debugging via the C2 interface.
• Features a high-speed 8051 μC core that executes 70% of instructions in one or two system clocks for efficient processing.
• Includes hardware-enhanced UART and SMBus serial ports alongside three general-purpose 16-bit counter/timers.

Applications

• Embedded systems requiring compact form factors
• Industrial control applications
• Consumer electronics devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the tape-and-reel packaging configuration required for automated assembly processes. Confirm the component status as Not Recommended for New Designs (NRND) before initiating procurement to ensure long-term availability aligns with product lifecycle requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small 2 x 2 mm footprint is necessary for space-constrained designs. Ensure the application does not require analog peripherals like ADCs or comparators, as these are excluded from the T606 variant compared to other members of the T60x family.

Part Context

This part belongs to the C8051T60x series of mixed-signal microcontrollers by Silicon Labs. The series provides high integration levels within small packages, combining digital peripherals with essential analog features suitable for embedded control tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the official datasheet Product Selection Guide for verified substitute part numbers within the C8051T60x family. Consider variants such as C8051T600 or C8051T602 if additional analog peripherals are required.
