Russell, the MSP 430 is the lowest power Micro around from what I have seen, they have been sprouting it for some time but they just gave it a further reduction in power consumption Cheers JJ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Russell McMahon" To: Sent: Friday, January 03, 2003 6:14 PM Subject: [EE]: Lowest operating voltage processor ??? > Any suggestions for the lowest available operating voltage microcontroller? > This is only for "playing" so needs to be able to be programmed and > developed for in small volume. > Cheap, lowish power, smallish pin count. > No great functionality required. > > Candidates include 16F62x at 2v odd, MSP430(similar). > > An interesting non-candidate is low voltage mobile Celeron at less than 1 > volt (!) but rather too large, expensive and power hungry for what I have in > mind. > > A microcontroller that would run on an expended single cell (0.9v) would be > nice. > > > > Russell McMahon > > -- > http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics > (like ads or off topics) for you.
