Small and low-power MCUs for medical and fitness applications

MOUSER Electronics is now stocking the MAXIM Integrated MAX32620/MAX32621 microcontrollers, which are small, and low-power.

Based on the 32-bit RISC ARM Cortex-M4F microcontroller with a floating point unit (FPU), the MAX32620/MAX32621 MCUs are ideally suited for medical and fitness applications.

Both devices include 2MBytes of flash and 256kbits of SRAM, with the architecture combining high-efficiency signal-processing functionality with low cost, and ease of use. The MAX32621 is a secure version of the MAX32620, incorporating a trust protection unit (TPU) with encryption and advanced security features.

The MCUs feature four powerful and flexible ultra-low-power modes (LP0 – LP3) for use in rechargeable devices. The microcontrollers’ built-in dynamic clock gating and firmware-controlled power gating minimise power consumption for any application.

Multiple SPI, UART, and I2C serial interfaces, and a Maxim Integrated 1-Wire master and USB, allow for interconnection to a wide variety of external sensors. The microcontrollers also feature a four-input, 10-bit analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) with selectable references.
