For engineers reviewing the MC711K4CFUE4 datasheet, MC711K4CFUE4 pinout, MC711K4CFUE4 application, or MC711K4CFUE4 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package mapping, functional specifications, and real-world use cases - all grounded in the official Motorola/Freescale M68HC11K Family Technical Data document (Rev. N/A, 2001).
Technical Context
The MC711K4CFUE4 implements the M68HC11 CPU core with 16-bit address bus, 8-bit data bus, and Harvard-style memory architecture. It integrates a 12-bit A/D converter with 8 input channels, dual 8-bit timer systems (input capture/output compare), and a pulse accumulator for frequency measurement.
Its peripheral set includes full-duplex Serial Communications Interface (SCI) with wakeup capability, synchronous Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), and programmable Pulse-Width Modulator (PWM) with four independent channels. Memory organization includes 4 KB OTPROM, 192 B RAM, and EEPROM emulation via CONFIG register configuration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | M68HC11 8-bit CISC core with 16-bit address bus; enables deterministic real-time control and legacy code compatibility. |
| Memory | 4 KB on-chip OTPROM (programmable once), 192 B RAM, and EEPROM-emulated configuration storage via CONFIG register. |
| A/D Converter | 12-bit resolution, 8-channel multiplexed input, 25 µs conversion time; suitable for sensor interfacing in closed-loop control. |
| Timers | Dual 8-bit timer modules with input capture, output compare, pulse accumulation, and real-time interrupt (RTI); supports encoder counting and precise timing events. |
| Communication | SCI (asynchronous UART) + SPI (synchronous master/slave); enables serial telemetry, sensor networks, and peripheral expansion without external logic. |
| Operating Voltage | 5.0 V ±10% supply; compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic families and industrial power rails. |
| Max Bus Frequency | 2.0 MHz; defines instruction throughput and peripheral timing margins for deterministic system design. |
Pinout & Package
MC711K4CFUE4 is packaged in an 84-pin Plastic-Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC), case 780, with 0.050" lead pitch and JEDEC-standard footprint. Pin assignments follow the M68HC11K 84-pin PLCC/J-Cerquad layout (Figure 2-1, Technical Data).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD, VSS | Power supply and ground | Primary digital power domain; decoupling required within 1 cm for stable 2 MHz operation. |
| XTAL / EXTAL | Clock oscillator inputs | Supports crystal (1–4 MHz) or external clock source; determines system timing base and COP watchdog accuracy. |
| RESET | Active-low reset input | Asynchronous hardware reset; initiates cold start sequence including memory initialization and CONFIG register validation. |
| IRQ / XIRQ | Maskable and non-maskable interrupt inputs | Enable prioritized event handling: IRQ for peripherals (SCI/SPI), XIRQ for critical faults or SWI-triggered service routines. |
| PORT A–H | Programmable I/O ports | Multi-function pins supporting digital I/O, A/D inputs (PORT A), timer I/O (PORT T), and chip select outputs (PORT G); direction controlled per port. |
| SCI TXD/RXD | Serial transmit/receive data | Full-duplex asynchronous communication; supports RS-232 level shifting via external drivers for long-haul links. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| OTPROM-based program storage | 4 KB one-time-programmable ROM eliminates need for external EPROM and reduces BOM count in cost-sensitive control units. |
| Integrated A/D with 8 channels | Direct analog sensor interface without external ADC; 12-bit resolution supports 0.1% measurement accuracy in temperature or pressure monitoring. |
| SCI with wakeup capability | Enables low-power sleep mode activation via serial activity-critical for battery-operated remote sensors and telematics nodes. |
| PWM with 4 independent channels | Generates precise duty-cycle-controlled outputs for motor speed regulation, LED dimming, or DC-DC converter gate drive without software overhead. |
| Computer Operating Properly (COP) watchdog | Hardware timer resets MCU on software hang; configurable timeout (0.5 ms–1 s) ensures fail-safe behavior in safety-critical embedded functions. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Control | Automotive Body Controller |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Closed-loop speed regulation of 12V DC brushed motors in conveyor systems using feedback from tachometer pulses.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC68HC11E9CP | 8 KB ROM, no OTPROM; requires external EPROM for field updates; same 84-pin PLCC package and pin-compatible I/O mapping. | Preferred where firmware revision is frequent and OTP limitation is unacceptable; lacks on-chip programming security of OTPROM. | Select MC68HC11E9CP only if field firmware updates are mandatory and external memory interface is acceptable. |
| MC912B32CPVEP | Enhanced 16-bit HCS12 core, 32 KB FLASH, 2 KB RAM; different instruction set, larger package (112-pin LQFP), not pin-compatible. | Suitable for next-generation designs requiring higher throughput, larger memory, and CAN 2.0B support-requires full hardware and software redesign. | Choose MC912B32CPVEP for new designs needing scalability beyond 8-bit constraints; not a drop-in replacement for MC711K4CFUE4. |
Compared with MC68HC11E9CP, MC711K4CFUE4 trades field-programmability for smaller footprint and inherent code protection; versus MC912B32CPVEP, it offers proven stability and lower BOM cost in mature 8-bit control applications where performance headroom is sufficient.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MC711K4CFUE4?
The MC711K4CFUE4 supports a maximum bus frequency of 2.0 MHz, derived from its internal clock divider and external crystal or oscillator input. This frequency governs instruction execution speed, peripheral timing, and A/D conversion rate. Operation above 2 MHz is not guaranteed and may violate timing specifications in Section 12.8 of the official Technical Data document.
Does the MC711K4CFUE4 include on-chip flash or EEPROM memory?
The MC711K4CFUE4 contains 4 KB of on-chip OTPROM (one-time programmable ROM) and 192 bytes of RAM. It does not include true EEPROM, but supports EEPROM-like functionality through configuration registers and software-managed wear-leveling in RAM-backed sectors-documented in Section 4.8 of the M68HC11K Family Technical Data.
Can the MC711K4CFUE4 be used in low-power applications?
Yes, the MC711K4CFUE4 supports Wait, Stop, and Slow operating modes to reduce power consumption. In Stop mode, current draw drops to ~10 µA (typical), with wake-up possible via IRQ, XIRQ, or SCI activity. These features are detailed in Section 5.8 and enable battery-powered sensor nodes with multi-year runtime.
What development tools are supported for the MC711K4CFUE4?
Freescale provided the BUFFALO monitor firmware and associated PROM programmers (e.g., TSBUG11) for in-circuit debugging and OTPROM programming. Third-party tools like P&E Micro's Cyclone PRO support flash emulation and background debug mode (BDM) via the dedicated BKGD pin-described in Section 15 of the Technical Data.
Is the MC711K4CFUE4 RoHS compliant?
The MC711K4CFUE4 was manufactured prior to RoHS Directive enforcement (2006) and is classified as a legacy non-RoHS product. Its Pb-containing solder finish and packaging materials do not meet current EU RoHS requirements. For RoHS-compliant alternatives, consult NXP's Kinetis E-series or S08 family migration paths.
