Hi everybody, I am looking for an ARM MCU with the following constraints (in the order of importance): - 4 channel ADC with >= 500 k samples/s - Price in 1k units < $1.50 - Frequency "as high as possible" but at least 32 MHz - 1 UART - RAM and Flash negligeable (1k RAM and 4k Flash would be largely enough). I found the LPC2102 from NXP which almost hit the price mark. I also got the impression that the Stellaris chips from TI and the STM series don't come in my 'low cost range'. Thanks for any comments and greetings from Germany M'
ARM MCU below $1.50/1000u?

Or do you require 4 channels @ 500KSPS simultaneously? -- Stef (remove caps, dashes and .invalid from e-mail address to reply by mail) This week only, all our fiber-fill jackets are marked down!

Well, can't hurt to take a look. Thanks and greetings from Germany M'
