Holtek releases Data Bank microcontroller

Holtek HT23B60

February 27, 2004 - Holtek Semiconductor is pleased to formally announce the release of the HT23B60, a personal data bank controller IC. The device's main technical advantage lie in its internal ROM structure that can store the program code and voice data code. It can play up to 18 seconds of voice capacity based on a 4-bit ADPCM of 7kHz sample rate. Its PWM output can directly drive a 32-ohm speaker, making it especially suitable for voice output personal data bank products.

By possessing a highly stable 8-bit microcontroller at its core, the HT23B60 has incorporated all the advantages of the Holtek 8-bit microcontrollers, such as high noise immunity and low power consumption requirements. With a power supply of only 3V and 3.58MHz, it has a very low operating current of 1.5 mA and a sleep-mode current of only 1 uA. With its internal 60x11 dot LCD drive circuitry and 16 different LCD output voltages, the device also has 32Kx16 ROM, 2.3Kx8 RAM, 14 I/O lines and 16 shared output lines. The device's further flexibility can be demonstrated by its internal watchdog timer, its Real Time Clock, 2.4V low voltage detect and Halt function.

Holtek's efforts and success in the area of personal data bank controller ICs has provided the company with a leadership role in this field. This new device, the HT23B60 not only provides a multi-functional and convenient-to-use device but also provides the advantages of competitive pricing, the real cost benefits of which will provide superior competitive edge to all related vendors.
