Microcontroller with >30KB RAM and high performance in a TQFP-44 or similar package


I'm looking for a microcontroller in a TQFP-44 package with 30 KB or more of RAM and, if possible 40 MIPS instruction cycle speed or faster. I can find dsPIC33F's with 30 KB of RAM, but they come in TQFP-100 packages, and I'm only going to be using maybe 15-20 pins of those so it seems like a massive waste of space and money.


So I'm looking for some reasonably sized package with lots of RAM. I've given up on the SO28's but if anyone finds one it would be excellent as well.


Current candidates are the Parallax Propeller, but that only has 20 MIPS instruction cycle, and the dsPIC's in TQFP-100's. One parameter but not both!!


This is for my Super OSD project.




Answer



Atmel makes a 32-bit 60 MHz AT32UC3B1256 AVR microcontroller with 256K of flash, 32KB of RAM in a 48-pin TQFP package. That's as close as I could find to your specs.

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
