Eight-pin microcontrollers offer numerous peripheral features. However, the maximum number of I/O pins available is often limited to six, since two pins would be required for the chip's power supply.

Atmel Corporation (www.atmel.com) has introduced four AEC Q100-qualified AVR flash microcontrollers for automotive power train, body, chassis, safety and security applications involving sensor and/or ...
