ST40 Products
|
|
ST40 is a RISC 32-Bit microprocessor
based on the SH-4 core (360Mips @ 200MHz). With the introduction
of the ST40RA, the SH-4 now becomes available for a wide range
of applications.
Major Investments:
STMicroelectronics is one of the leading promoters of the SuperH
architecture, which has become popular in the gaming, automotive
and consumer markets.
The ST40RA is the first device in a new family of General Purpose
MPUs for the Car, Industrial and Telecom markets. |
