DS4830A

DS4830A Optical Microcontroller General Description The DS4830A is a low-power, 16-bit microcontroller with a unique peripheral set supporting optical applications that require high-resolution conversion of many analog signals and digital signal processing (DSP) of those signals, high-speed data communication to an external host, and ultra-low power dissipation. A wide variety of optical transceiver controller applications is supported without need of external circuitry, thereby minimizing cost and PCB area. Power dissipation and throughput are optimized through the use of a programmable round-robin analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and 10-bit fast comparator, which operate completely independently of the core and significantly relieve core overhead. A dual multiply/accumulate (MAC) is included to minimize interrupt service timing/design complexity. Ten 16-bit PWM channels are included to provide an unprecedented level of precision in digital powercontrol applications. The DS4830A pr...
