Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated DARWIN Ultra-Low-Power Microcontrollers
Analog Devices Inc. DARWIN Ultra-Low-Power Microcontrollers are an extensive range of Arm® microcontrollers. The DARWIN Microcontrollers are designed to provide maximum performance with minimal power consumption. The devices are highly integrated, secure, ultra-low-power microcontrollers that provide a choice of memory size and cores. This gives flexibility to pick the best microcontroller for an application.Features
- Notable features of this range of ultra-low-power microcontrollers include
- Energy Efficient
- The ultra-low-power active/retention modes (SRAM maintained) of the MCUs maximize the uptime of battery-powered devices
- High Performance
- With up to 3MB flash, 1MB SRAM, scalable memory architecture, and multi-core options, these ultra-low-power microcontrollers are capable of storing, processing, and acting on the vast amounts of data used by these devices
- Security & Reliability
- Using a modular arithmetic accelerator (MAA) with a hardware entropy source for advanced security features (AES, ECDSA, RSA, DSA, TRNG) while providing support for secure boot loading, the level of security provided by these microcontrollers is comparable to those used by financial and government institutions
- Smart Integration
- Feature-rich microcontrollers available in minuscule packages save real estate in your design
- Wireless Connectivity
- Wireless protocols like BLE 5 allow the interconnection of devices without needing to rely on a separate chip
- Energy Efficient
