INTRODUCTION

The W541E261 and W541C261 are high-performance 4-bit microcontroller (μC) with an LCD driver and the flash EEPROM and mask ROM for the program memory. The device contains a 4-bit ALU, two 8-bit timers, two dividers, a 32 × 4 LCD driver, and five 4-bit I/O ports (including 1 output port to drive the LEDs). There are also five interrupt sources and 8-level subroutine nesting for interrupt applications. The W541E261 and W541C261 have two power reduction modes, hold mode and stop mode, which help to minimize power dissipation.

FEATURES
