Atmel W/M Announces the T89C51CC01

Atmel Wireless & Microcontrollers (formerly TEMIC Semiconductors) is pleased to announce the T89C51CC01, a new 8051-compatible device. The T89C51CC01 provides an on-chip CAN controller which is fully compatible with the ISO specifications 11898 (2.0A & 2.0B) for high-speed and 11519-2 for low-speed serial data bus transmission. Its outstanding on-chip 32K Flash program memory and the separated 2K Flash boot memory together with In-System-Programming (ISP) via CAN bus or UART give this product all the advantages needed to develop applications where product flexibility, programming security, short time-to-market, and low costs are required.

Existing CAN networks with 2.0A and 2.0B nodes are supported by the T89C51CC01 as all channels may be used in either of these two modes. This product handles 15 CAN channels (message objects) that are programmable for reception, transmission or receive buffer (maximum 120 Bytes). Extensive masking, filtering, and buffering of CAN frames reduces the host processor load.

Dual data pointers, 2K user data EEPROM, a 10-bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC), and 1.2K RAM complete the 80C51 enhanced architecture of the T89C51CC01.

The Keil C51 Compiler supports all aspects of this enhanced 8051 device as well as all 8051-compatible chips from Atmel Wireless & Microcontrollers. All on-chip peripherals of the T89C51CC01 are fully simulated in the µVision2 Debugger including the on-chip CAN interface. The Debugger's built-in script language supports complex peripheral simulation including CAN communication.
