The S3C72C8 single-chip CMOS microcontroller has been designed for high performance using Samsung's
newest 4-bit CPU core, SAM47 (Samsung Arrangeable Microcontrollers).
With an up-to-96-dot LCD direct drive capability flexible 16-bit timer/counter, and 4-chanel comparator, the
S3C72C8 offers an excellent design solution for a low CDP and a card reader.
Up to 28 pins of the 44-pin QFP or up to 26 pins of the 42-pin SDIP package can be dedicated to I/O. Eight
vectored interrupts provide fast response to internal and external events. In addition, the S3C72C8's advanced
CMOS technology provides for low power consumption.
OTP
The S3C72C8 microcontroller is also available in OTP (One Time Programmable) version, S3P72C8. S3P72C8
microcontroller has an on-chip 8K-byte one-time-programable EPROM instead of masked ROM.
The S3P72C8 is comparable to S3C72C8, both in function and in pin configuration.
