S08 Core Software Efficiency
Optimized for extreme operating economy with
a number of low-power options, the S08 core
is particularly attractive for battery-powered
and handheld applications. Multiple Stop
modes, along with Wait and Standby modes,
will help you achieve new thresholds in low-
power performance under a variety of operating
conditions.

will help you achieve new thresholds in low-
power performance under a variety of operating
conditions.
The S08 core allows efficient, compact, modular
coding with full 16-bit stackpointer and stack-
relative addressing. It also permits various
instruction sizes and enables memory interface
in multiple mechanisms and in many addressing
modes. The object code is compatible with
Freescale’s legacy HC05 and HC08 cores
and is upward compatible to other Freescale
architectures.

RS08 Core for Ultra-Low-End Applications
The RS08 core is a reduced version of the S08
central processing unit (CPU) that has been
specifically designed for small-pin-count devices
with under 16 KB memory. 30 percent smaller
than the S08 CPU, it’s more efficient and cost-
effective for simple electromechanical devices
that are migrating to fully solid-state electronic
operation or portable devices that have evolved
into smaller or even disposable versions.
Freescale’s first products utilizing the RS08
core architecture are the MC9RS08KA ultra-
low-end microcontrollers.

The HC08 Core
From a basic controller in a tiny 8-pin quad flat
non-leaded (QFN) package to feature-rich silicon
in a 64-lead quad flat package (QFP), the HC08
MCU is an industry workhorse with an impressive
array of peripherals. Here are some examples:

Environmentally Preferred Products
Freescale now introduces all new 8-bit
products in lead (Pb)-free packaging.
As part of our Pb-free packaging initiative,
we are in the process of converting our entire
product portfolio to more recyclable Pb-free
packaging. We will meet or exceed legislative
requirements for environmentally friendly
packaging, including the European Union’s
Reduction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and
products in lead (Pb)-free packaging.
