NXP Semiconductors Kinetis K0x 32-bit Microcontrollers

NXP Semiconductors Kinetis K0x 32-bit Microcontrollers are entry-level MCUs, built on the Arm® Cortex®-M4 core, designed to provide a perfect balance of performance and power consumption. Kinetis K0x MCUs run at 100MHz with Floating Point Unit, while offering low dynamic power consumption and best-in-class static current consumption, with more than 10 flexible low-power modes.

Kinetis K0x MCUs deliver run currents down to 125uA/MHz, low-power modes down to 150 nA, and 6µS wake-up from stop. Each MCU in the series combines the ultra-low-power performance with a streamlined level of integration optimized to meet the needs of a broad number of applications.
