I just found out TI has some pretty nifty ULP MCUs with decent-sized on-chip FRAM, and they are about 30% cheaper than any equivalent-sized FRAM chips I can find. I also found out that they have yet another eclipse-based IDE. I think I have about 6 of them installed at this point, including actual non-brand eclipse. I've been using it for about 12 years now though, so I actually prefer it over just about everything else. e: It's not like there's a whole lot of IDEs around anyway Private Speech fucked around with this message at 19:44 on May 25, 2018 |

csammis posted:The MSP430FRs? I've been using them and I like them. Yeah, those. Specifically the 256KB versions; it replaces a more expensive component, is ULP so power is not a huge issue and you get a whole MCU essentially for free.

Phobeste posted:Why would you want to add programmable parts... The joke answer is that I get paid to write programs, not to design simple things. The real answer is we needed an SoC of some kind anyway, and the higher-tier FRs have GPIOs aplenty. (also TI has a dead-easy sample project for turning the MCU into an SPI-FRAM-with-altogether-too-many-pins; not that I can use it anyway because I need more complex functionality)
