Microchip Technology
AVR AVR® ATtiny, Functional Safety (FuSa) Microcontroller IC 8-Bit 20MHz 2KB (1K x 16) FLASH 8-SOIC
NRND3,031 in stock

Overview

The ATTINY25-20SSNR is a high-performance, low-power 8-bit AVR RISC-based microcontroller featuring 2KB of ISP Flash and 128 bytes of SRAM. This specific variant is designed with Functional Safety (FuSa) features, providing a reliable solution for small-scale control applications in an 8-SOIC package. It operates at speeds up to 20MHz and includes a 10-bit ADC and a high-speed timer with a programmable dead time generator.

Why Choose This Part

It offers an exceptional balance of low power consumption (0.1uA in power-down mode) and high-speed processing with 120 powerful instructions, most of which execute in a single clock cycle. The integration of a Universal Serial Interface (USI) and a high-speed timer with dead time control makes it more versatile than standard 8-pin microcontrollers.

Applications

Functional Safety Control
Utilizing FuSa features for small-scale monitoring and safety-critical shutdown logic in industrial environments.
High-Speed PWM Generation
Leveraging the high-speed timer and dead time generator for efficient power conversion and small motor control tasks.
Sensor Interface
Using the 10-bit ADC and internal temperature measurement for localized environmental monitoring.
Legacy Replacement
A drop-in, surface-mount upgrade for older 8-bit systems requiring modern safety certifications in a minimal footprint.
