Introduction

The MC68HC908RF2 MCU is a member of the low-cost, high-performance M68HC08 Family of 8-bit microcontroller units (MCUs). Optimized for low-power operation and available in a small 32-pin low-profile quad flat pack (LQFP), this MCU is well suited for remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter designs. The M68HC08 Family is based on the customer-specified integrated circuit (CSIC) design strategy. All MCUs in the family use the enhanced M68HC08 central processor unit (CPU08) and are available with a variety of modules, memory sizes and types, and package types.
