Sitronix ST2XXX LCD MCUs
- This extended SoC family combines a 65C02 CPU core (including the
- Rockwell bit opcodes) with a wide variety of on-chip peripherals.
- Features common to all besides internal RAM and ROM are parallel
- ports, internal timers, a multi-level interrupt controller, LCD
- controllers (of varying degrees of sophistication), R/C/slow XTAL
- clock generators, power management and PSG channels for speaker
- output. Each MCU also has numerous pins dedicated to LCD segment
- drivers, an external bus addressing several MB of off-chip
- memory using multiple chip select signals, or both.
