Product details
Overview
MC9S08DV16AMLF from NXP (formerly Freescale) is an 8-bit HCS08 microcontroller with 16 KB flash, 3 KB RAM, and integrated CAN 2.0A/B controller, ADC12, dual SCI/LIN, SPI, I²C, TPM, RTC, and analog comparators - deployed in automotive body control modules requiring deterministic real-time response and CAN network integration.
For engineers reviewing the MC9S08DV16AMLF datasheet, MC9S08DV16AMLF pinout, MC9S08DV16AMLF application, or MC9S08DV16AMLF equivalent, key selection criteria include flash size, CAN protocol compliance, 12-bit ADC conversion time, stop-mode power consumption, and background debug interface support.
Technical Context
The MC9S08DV16AMLF implements the S08CPUV3 core running at up to 40 MHz CPU/20 MHz bus frequency, with HC08 instruction set plus BGND for single-wire debug. Its MCG clock system supports FLL (±1.5% accuracy with internal temp compensation), PLL, and multiple crystal/resonator ranges (31.25 kHz–16 MHz).
Peripherals include a 16-channel 12-bit ADC with 2.5 µs conversion time and internal temperature sensor, two analog comparators with bandgap reference option, MSCAN supporting five receive buffers and programmable identifier filters (2×32-bit, 4×16-bit, or 8×8-bit), and dual SCIs compliant with LIN 2.0 and SAE J2602.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MC9S08DV16AMLF CPU?
The MC9S08DV16AMLF features an HCS08 CPU core with a maximum CPU frequency of 40 MHz and a corresponding bus clock of 20 MHz. This timing is achieved using the on-chip Multi-purpose Clock Generator (MCG) in PLL or FLL mode, with supported crystal frequencies ranging from 31.25 kHz to 16 MHz. The MC9S08DV16AMLF maintains this performance across its full rated temperature and voltage range.
Does the MC9S08DV16AMLF support LIN 2.0 protocol natively?
Yes, the MC9S08DV16AMLF includes two Serial Communications Interface (SCI) modules that are hardware-accelerated for LIN 2.0 and SAE J2602 protocols. Each SCI supports master extended break generation and slave extended break detection, enabling reliable frame synchronization and node addressing without software overhead. This capability is confirmed in the official MC9S08DV60 Series Data Sheet Rev 3 for all DV-series members including the MC9S08DV16AMLF.
How much flash memory does the MC9S08DV16AMLF have, and is it reprogrammable in-circuit?
The MC9S08DV16AMLF contains 16 KB of on-chip flash memory that supports full read/program/erase operations over its entire operating voltage and temperature range. Reprogramming is performed in-circuit via the single-wire background debug interface without requiring device removal. Flash block protection and security features prevent unauthorized access, making the MC9S08DV16AMLF suitable for production firmware updates and field calibration.
What CAN protocol versions and frame types does the MC9S08DV16AMLF support?
The MC9S08DV16AMLF integrates the MSCAN module compliant with ISO 11898-1, supporting CAN protocol Version 2.0A and 2.0B. It handles both standard (11-bit ID) and extended (29-bit ID) data frames, as well as remote frames. Its five receive buffers operate with a FIFO storage scheme, and identifier acceptance filters can be configured as 2×32-bit, 4×16-bit, or 8×8-bit masks - all confirmed for the MC9S08DV16AMLF in the MC9S08DV60 Series Data Sheet Rev 3.
What power-saving modes are available on the MC9S08DV16AMLF, and what is the lowest current draw?
The MC9S08DV16AMLF offers two very low-power stop modes (Stop2 and Stop3), a reduced-power wait mode, and a very low-power real-time interrupt (RTI) capable of waking the device from any mode. While exact current values depend on configuration and conditions, Stop3 mode achieves the lowest power state with the 1-kHz internal oscillator active for RTI - enabling periodic wake-up without external components. This behavior is documented for the MC9S08DV16AMLF in the MC9S08DV60 Series Data Sheet Rev 3.
