The S3C72I9 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-896-dot LCD direct drive capability, 8-bit timer/counter 0, 16-bit timer/counter 1, and serial I/O, the
S3C72I9 offers an excellent design solution for a wide variety of applications which require LCD functions.
Up to 39 pins of the 100-pin QFP package can be dedicated to I/O. Eight vectored interrupts provide fast
response to internal and external events. In addition, the S3C72I9's advanced CMOS technology provides for low
power consumption and a wide operating voltage range.
OTP
The S3C72I9 microcontroller is also available in OTP (One Time Programmable) version, S3P72I9. S3P72I9
microcontroller has an on-chip 32 K-byte one-time-programable EPROM instead of masked ROM. The S3P72I9
is comparable to S3C72I9, both in function and in pin configuration.
