S912ZVL96AMLF

Microcontrollers Overview

The S912ZVL96AMLF is a 16-bit microcontroller from the NXP S12 MagniV family, utilizing the S12Z core architecture. It features 96 kB of Flash program memory and 8 kB of SRAM data memory. The device operates with a maximum clock frequency of 32 MHz and supports a supply voltage range of 5.5 V to 18 V. It integrates a 12-bit ADC with 10 channels and an 8-bit DAC. Communication interfaces include CAN, LIN, SCI, and SPI. The unit is housed in a 48-LQFP package and is rated for operating temperatures between -40°C and +105°C.

Microcontrollers Feature Summary

• Integrates a sophisticated S12Z core with a built-in 12 V to 5 V voltage regulator and a LIN physical layer transceiver.
• Features on-chip RC-oscillator trimmed to high accuracy, eliminating the need for an external crystal on LIN applications.
• Includes error correction code (ECC) support for Flash, EEPROM, and RAM to enhance system reliability.

Microcontrollers Applications

• Automotive LIN nodes
• Sensor interfaces
• Actuator control systems

Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L' indicates tape-and-reel packaging rather than tray packaging when reviewing distributor listings. Confirm the operating temperature grade matches the '+105 C' specification required for your application environment. Ensure the part number corresponds to the S12ZVL series which includes the integrated LIN transceiver, distinct from other S12Z variants.

Microcontrollers Selection Notes

Select this component for space-constrained automotive applications requiring low-cost integration of LIN communication. The internal voltage regulator simplifies power design by supplying both the device and external components. Compare against the S912ZVC series if CAN bus connectivity without LIN is preferred, or if higher temperature ratings are necessary.

Microcontrollers Part Context

This MCU belongs to the S12 MagniV mixed-signal product line designed for automotive and industrial environments. The S12ZVL sub-family specifically targets LIN-based networks, offering scalability through varying memory sizes within the same core architecture. It supports functional safety initiatives through NXP's SafeAssure program.

Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

S912ZVL96AVLFR is a verified substitute within the same family, differing primarily in packaging format.
