Programming support for ‘Tiny’ microcontroller series

Data I/O in Redmond, Wash., is offering support for the Renesas R8C/11 “Tiny” series of microcontrollers beginning with support for the R5F211 on Data I/O’s FlashCore programming systems. The FlashCore family includes the FlashPAK desktop programmer, the ProLine RoadRunner for inline automated handling and programming (attaching directly to the SMT feeder), and the PS offline automated handler and programming systems. This family of Renesas microcontrollers is targeted at several applications including automotive products, consumer products, PC/networking, and industrial environments and is experiencing rapid acceptance in the market. Based on the M16C architecture, the R8C series is small in size but big in performance and is optimized for embedded systems applications.
