Fujitsu Introduces FlexRay(TM) Controller, New High-Performance 8-bit and 32-bit Microcontrollers at Embedded Systems Conference in Boston

   Industry Leader in FlexRay Technology in Booth 1009 at Hynes Auditorium

    SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Fujitsu Microelectronics
America, Inc. (FMA) will show its new FlexRay(TM) controller, new 8-bit
microcontrollers, and new 32-bit microcontrollers at the annual fall Embedded
Systems Conference in Boston. The new products will be at booth 1009.
    The new Fujitsu FlexRay controller, the MB88121, is an application-
specific standard product that supports FlexRay version 2.0. Based on IP
developed by Robert Bosch GmbH, the MB88121 delivers 10 Megabit/second
bandwidth, and provides fault-tolerant, deterministic data transmission, which
are required for engine control, braking and steering subsystems now being
designed using the FlexRay protocol.

    8-Bit MCUs for Home and Consumer Electronics Products
    The new MB95F136H, MB95F128H, and MB95F118H high-performance 8-bit MCUs
are the latest additions to the Fujitsu F2MC-8FX family, expanding its range
to meet the diverse requirements of the consumer electronics market. All three
new microcontrollers are designed for use with 5V single-cell power supplies,
and each can also be used with 3V supplies. They have been designed to
function temporarily at reduced power in order to adapt to power supply
fluctuations.

    32-Bit MCU Supports Control Area Network, Local Interconnect Network
    The new Fujitsu MB91270 MCUs integrate a 32-bit CPU core with an
innovative multi-level communications interface that supports an industry-
leading 11 channels. They are designed for automotive applications, and
support the Controller Area Network (CAN) and Local Interconnect Network (LIN).
The new ICs deliver maximum processing power to the control units that
supervise vehicle airbag sensors, anti-lock braking systems, vehicle air
conditioners, and other safety and comfort systems. Each MCU also incorporates
a 24-channel AD converter for analog signal input from sensors, and deliver
the speed and overall performance required to manage 11 channels of
simultaneous data input.
    Fujitsu's microcontroller family includes general-purpose 8-bit, 16-bit
and 32-bit MCUs, as well as specialized integrated circuits for peripheral
control. Fujitsu's microcontrollers are widely used in automobile design, and
in home, industrial and consumer applications.
    With their wide range of products with LIN and CAN interfaces, Fujitsu's
MCUs are the standard solution for automotive applications such as body and
comfort electronics, climate control, dashboards, infotainment, safety and
sensor electronics.
