kinetis - other options?

df_dev — Wed, 23 Mar 2022 17:59:17 GMT

What options are there, up and down the product structure, for MCUs similar to the Kinetis family? Is there a planned end-of-life for Kinetis or follow-on series at NXP?

My goal is to have confidence in selecting a product family for low cost motor control applications as shown in AN1662.

Thanks

Daniel, thanks for the info and reply.

After posting the question I managed to find my way to the 8bit controllers using the 'Selector'. My goal is to develop a similar motor application, AN1662, using today's tech in an 8pin package.

I'm glad to hear that .

I'm also sharing a page with some MCU’s that might be a good option for your application.

One of the benefits of these MCU’s, that I would like to highlight, is that the listed devices have an SDK which contain several examples and can save you some development time.

Have a good day, Daniel.
