Summary:

ICU and National have together produced a reference design for the COP8SG Family microcontrollers. COP8SG is an enhanced OTP/ROM microcontroller that includes the popular UART from the COP888xG family. Other features are 8k-32K EPROM, three (3) 16-bit highly flexible timers and two comparators. The COP8SG is designed the same way as the COP8SA family of OTP/ROM microcontrollers, where Oscillator and Power-On Reset are integrated on the chip.

The purpose with this kit is to give you some application ideas, and some common software examples which will get you started quickly, and reduce your design cycle. Top of Page

Description:

This kit consists of a printed circuit board (PCB) with a pre-programmed COP8SGR7, Liquid Crystal Display, Multi Communication Interfaces, A/D-converter, D/A-converter and an LM75 temperature sensor.

The Win95 demonstration program communicates with the PCB via dual RS232 connections, and provides graphical control over the dual USART communications. On-board A/D and D/A connectors allow interfacing to external environments, and the temp sensor allows for a complete temp monitoring system.

In the package we have enclosed the necessary documentation such as schematics, bill of materials, flow charts and assembler code. Top of Page

Features:

  • Windows PC user interface with graphical display of dual hardware and software USARTs
  • On-line Schematics, BOM, Flow Charts, Code, and Documentation. All on 3.5" disc. 
  • PCB with pre-programmed 32k COP8SGR7 in a socket (44PLCC) 
  • Dual RS232 Connectors and 9v battery for out-of-the-box operation
  • LCD with 3 backplanes. (only 6 resistors required)
  • Four communication channels: Two synchronous (I2C and
    Microwire) and two asynchronous.
  • Optional IrDA communication 
  • External A/D and D/A terminals
  • On-board LM75 Temperature sensor
  • On-board EEPROM
