MCHPATMEGA128RFA1-ZU
Overview
The ATMEGA128RFA1-ZU is a low-power CMOS 8-bit microcontroller based on the AVR enhanced RISC architecture combined with a high-data-rate 2.4GHz ISM band transceiver. It is designed for IEEE 802.15.4, Zigbee, and 6LoWPAN applications, offering 128KB of self-programmable Flash and 16KB of RAM on a single chip.
Why Choose This Part
This SoC reduces system cost and PCB footprint by integrating the RF transceiver and MCU onto a single silicon die. It features an on-chip 2-cycle multiplier and a high-performance radio with a maximum TX power of 14.5mA, providing an excellent balance between processing power and wireless range.
