Product details
Overview
MC9S08PT60AVLC from NXP Semiconductors is an 8-bit S08 microcontroller designed for embedded control in automotive and industrial applications, featuring 60 KB flash, 4 KB RAM, 256 B EEPROM, 16-channel 12-bit ADC, three FlexTimer modules (6+2+2 channels), and operation across –40 °C to 105 °C at up to 20 MHz bus frequency.
For engineers reviewing the MC9S08PT60AVLC datasheet, MC9S08PT60AVLC pinout, MC9S08PT60AVLC application, or MC9S08PT60AVLC equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin mapping, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options - all grounded in Rev. 6 (09/2019) official documentation and NXP's ordering data.
Technical Context
The MC9S08PT60AVLC implements an enhanced S08 CPU core with four-level nested interrupt support and up to 40 interrupt/reset sources. Its clock system integrates both a Pierce external oscillator (31.25 kHz–20 MHz) and an internal clock source (ICS) with FLL, enabling precise 1% internal reference accuracy from 0 °C to 70 °C.
System-level protection includes independent watchdog timing, programmable low-voltage detection with reset/interrupt, illegal opcode/address detection, and flash/RAM access control. Debug is enabled via single-wire background debug interface (BDC) with three breakpoints and on-chip ICE module supporting nine trigger modes.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and voltage range for the MC9S08PT60AVLC?
The MC9S08PT60AVLC operates at up to 20 MHz bus frequency across a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V, fully specified over the industrial temperature range of –40 °C to 105 °C. Its internal clock source (ICS) with FLL supports stable 20 MHz operation using either internal trimming or external crystal reference, and flash memory retains full read/program/erase functionality across this entire voltage and temperature envelope.
Does the MC9S08PT60AVLC support debugging during live operation?
Yes, the MC9S08PT60AVLC includes a single-wire background debug interface (BDC) that enables non-intrusive in-circuit debugging. It supports three hardware breakpoints, real-time register and memory inspection, and on-chip ICE trace with nine trigger modes - all while the application runs at full speed. The BKGD/MS pin serves as the debug entry point and requires no additional pins beyond the standard SWD signal path.
How many analog-to-digital converter (ADC) channels does the MC9S08PT60AVLC have, and what is its resolution?
The MC9S08PT60AVLC integrates a 16-channel, 12-bit successive-approximation ADC with 2.5 µs conversion time, internal bandgap reference, optional hardware triggering, and data buffer watermarking. In the 32-pin LQFP package (MC9S08PT60AVLC), 12 of those 16 channels are physically routed to pins - matching the device's pin-count-limited I/O configuration while retaining full 12-bit precision and stop-mode operation capability.
What low-power modes are available on the MC9S08PT60AVLC, and what is the lowest current draw?
The MC9S08PT60AVLC offers multiple low-power states including Wait mode and Stop3 mode. In Stop3 mode - where only the 1 kHz LPO clock remains active - the device draws ≤1.45 µA at 5 V and ≤1.4 µA at 3 V over –40 °C to 105 °C. Additional current adders apply for enabled peripherals (e.g., +44 µA for ADC, +111 µA for TSI), but all remain within sub-µA base consumption, making it suitable for battery-backed or energy-harvesting applications.
Is the MC9S08PT60AVLC pin-compatible with other members of the S08 PT family?
The MC9S08PT60AVLC shares the same 32-pin LQFP footprint and pin assignment as MC9S08PT32AVLC, differing only in flash size (60 KB vs. 32 KB) and ADC channel count (12 vs. 12 - identical in this package). However, it is not pin-compatible with 44-, 48-, or 64-pin variants (e.g., VLH, VQH) due to differing pin counts and signal mappings. Migration between 32-pin PT-series devices requires no PCB change, but firmware must validate flash size and peripheral enablement.
