The scalable S12 family offers developers a wide range of options, with on-chip flash capacity extending from 32KB to 1MB and easy migration to higher performance S12X devices.
The S12X family of 16-bit microcontrollers further enhances the functionality of the HCS12 family and is ideal for body control and gateway applications. The S12X Series retains the 16-bit efficiency of the HCS12 and creates an efficient migration path that helps save users' investment. The S12XS series is a 16-bit MCU developed specifically for a variety of cost-sensitive automotive body electronics applications to meet customer demand for design flexibility and platform compatibility. The devices are available in six models with flash memory ranging from 64KB to 256KB and packages ranging from 48 pins to 112 pins. Customers have the flexibility to choose between different capacities of memory, packaging and price to meet the needs of their specific application.
As an extension of the S12X series, the S12XS series expands the economics and compatibility of the recently introduced high-performance S12XE series, broadening the entire S12X product line to provide customers with lower cost and smaller package products. . The S12XS and S12XE families are available with complementary memory, peripherals and a variety of packages. The flexibility of the S12XS family can help designers react quickly and reduce migration costs as the market changes, as application requirements change during the development phase. In fact, all S12 and S12X series products have scalability across the entire automotive electronics platform, and their hardware and software are reusable and compatible.
In the application development process, customers can use the S12XE series as the development platform for the S12XS series. Designers can use the S12XE family of products as a simulation tool to maintain compatibility when developing applications for the S12XS family of products. This helps reduce constraints and allows code written for the MC9S12XE family of devices to run on the MC9S12XS family of devices without modification.
2 A wide range of cost-effective options
With five times the performance of the HCS12 microcontroller, the S12X family features an enhanced core and enhanced peripherals that increase bus speed (up to 40MHz and HCS12 up to 25MHz) with full CAN functionality. And improved interrupt handling capabilities. The S12X adds a parallel processing XGATE module. The module is an intelligent, programmable direct memory access (DMA) module that performs interrupt processing, communication, and data preprocessing, and frees up some CPU space for other tasks to improve performance.
The S12XS series is a cost-effective addition to the high-performance S12XE MCU series. Compared to the S12XE series, the S12XS has been streamlined in the following areas. In terms of peripherals, peripheral devices are reduced. In terms of memory mapping, the S12XS series devices do not have emulated EEPROM (EEE), RAM, data flash is smaller than similar S12XE series devices; the mapping of these modules is upward compatible. In terms of flash memory, the flash memory of the S12XS series is 64KB to 256KB, while the flash memory of the S12XE series is 128KB to 1MB.
The main features of the S12XS series include:
(1) 32MHz core and bus speed;
(2) 64KB, 128KB and 256KB flash options with error correction code (ECC);
(3) 4KB to 8KB data flash with ECC, which can be used for data and program storage;
(4) Select a configurable 8, 10 or 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with a conversion time of 3 milliseconds;
(5) Support for Control Area Network (CAN), Local Interconnect Network (LIN), and Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) protocols;
(6) 8-channel timer with 16-bit counter;
(7) Excellent EMC/operating and stopping current performance;
(8) A variety of package specifications for small pins:
―48QFN, 7mm × 7mm × 1mm, 0.5mm pitch;

―80QFP, 14mmx14mm×2.2mm, 0.65mm pitch;
―112LQFP, 20mm×20mm×1.4mm, 0.65mm pitch;
(9) Use the extensive support tools provided by the S12X series.
3 Rapidly develop intelligent and efficient applications
Body electronic systems mainly include: anti-lock brakes, body stability control, airbags, anti-collision alarms, anti-theft, rearview mirror memory, air conditioning, central locking, seat position adjustment, door control, etc. These applications typically transmit data at low data rates while requiring high current drive modules to drive the motor and actuator. As the complexity of automotive body control applications continues to increase, the performance requirements for 16-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) are also increasing.
With the S12XS series of MCUs, you can develop advanced application functions, such as anti-collision systems with intelligent cruise control. When the car is too close to other vehicles or deviate to another lane during driving, the system will automatically alarm; If the two cars are about to collide, the system will automatically brake. It is also possible to develop applications that automatically brake in the event of a crash, close the window, pull down the sun visor, tighten the seat belt, and adjust the seat to the safest position. These body electronics systems can be implemented with the S12XS series at a lower cost and compatible development platform to meet the increased demand for automotive functionality and safety in the future.
The S12XS Series features an improved on-chip peripheral, memory and package options optimized for automotive body and passenger comfort applications for seat controllers, HVAC control modules, steering wheel controls and sun visors . Small devices in QFN packages (7mm x 7mm) are ideal for space-constrained applications such as small actuators, sensor modules and column-integrated modules.
