16-Bit Low-Power RISC Microcontrollers

MAXQ microcontrollers are built from the ground up to be natural companions to analog circuits. Designed for reduced noise operation, the MAXQ integrates high-precision analog functions alongside digital components, resulting in reduced chip-count solutions. The one-cycle MAXQ RISC architecture achieves an unmatched performance-to-power characteristic among 16-bit microcontrollers by combining superior clock utilization with intelligent clock distribution. This powerful combination makes products easier to design and build, shortens time-to-market, and delivers outstanding performance.
  • Low-Power Operation
    • Intelligent top-level clock distribution
      • Clock routed only to modules where needed
      • Reduces active-mode power consumption
      • Improves integration of application-specific analog circuits
    • Higher MIPS/MHz operation reduces application clock frequency

  • High Performance
    • One clock per machine cycle operation
    • No instruction pipeline
      • No wasted instructions on branches
    • Harvard memory architecture
      • Simultaneous data and memory access
    • Hardware auto-increment/decrement data pointers
