Product details
Overview
MCHC711KS2CFNE3 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Freescale/Motorola) is an 8-bit HCMOS microcontroller unit (MCU) featuring 2 KB of OTP EPROM, 192 bytes of RAM, and integrated peripherals including SCI, SPI, A/D converter, PWM, and timer subsystems. It operates at up to 3 MHz with single-chip mode support and targets embedded control in industrial sensors, motor controllers, and automotive body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the MCHC711KS2CFNE3 datasheet, MCHC711KS2CFNE3 pinout, MCHC711KS2CFNE3 application, or MCHC711KS2CFNE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include OTP memory size, 68-pin PLCC package compatibility, E-clock timing requirements, on-chip A/D resolution (8-bit), and SCI/SPI interface availability for system integration.
Technical Context
The MCHC711KS2CFNE3 implements the M68HC11 CPU core with Harvard architecture, supporting 16-bit addressing and a 56-instruction set. Its memory map includes fixed ROM/EPROM space, configurable EEPROM emulation via CONFIG register, and banked I/O registers mapped into memory space.
Peripheral integration follows the M68HC11K family architecture: a 16-bit timer system with input capture, output compare, pulse accumulator, and real-time interrupt; an 8-channel 8-bit A/D converter with multiplexed inputs; and dual serial interfaces (SCI and SPI) with independent baud rate generation and status flag management.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC68HC11E9CP | 512 B EEPROM instead of 2 KB OTP; same 68-pin PLCC package and instruction set | Requires external programming equipment for field updates; lacks OTP security for firmware IP | Select when field reprogrammability outweighs firmware protection needs |
| MC912B32CPVE | Enhanced 68HC12 core, 32 KB Flash, CAN 2.0B interface; 80-pin QFP package | Supports CAN bus networking but requires PCB redesign due to different pin count and layout | Select for new designs needing CAN connectivity and larger code space |
Compared with MC68HC11E9CP and MC912B32CPVE, the MCHC711KS2CFNE3 provides optimal balance of OTP-based firmware security, compact 68-pin footprint, and proven peripheral set for cost-sensitive, non-networked embedded control - without requiring layout changes or external programming infrastructure.

FAQ
What is the memory configuration of the MCHC711KS2CFNE3?
The MCHC711KS2CFNE3 contains 2 KB of one-time-programmable (OTP) EPROM for program storage, 192 bytes of on-chip RAM, and no user-accessible EEPROM. Configuration bits (CONFIG register) emulate limited EEPROM functionality for non-volatile settings, but true EEPROM is not physically present in this variant.
Does the MCHC711KS2CFNE3 support in-circuit programming?
No, the MCHC711KS2CFNE3 does not support in-circuit programming. Its 2 KB OTP EPROM must be programmed prior to soldering using a dedicated EPROM programmer (e.g., BP Microsystems or Data I/O units) that applies 12.5 V VPP to the VPP pin during write cycles - a process incompatible with live board operation.
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MCHC711KS2CFNE3?
The MCHC711KS2CFNE3 operates with a maximum internal bus frequency of 3 MHz, derived from a 1–3 MHz crystal or external clock applied to XTAL/EXTAL. The E-clock output runs at half the bus frequency (1.5 MHz max), and all peripheral timing-including A/D conversion and SCI baud generation-is referenced to this base clock.
Which package type does the MCHC711KS2CFNE3 use?
The MCHC711KS2CFNE3 uses a 68-pin Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC) package, Case 779, with 25.4 mm × 25.4 mm body size and 0.050-inch lead pitch. This package is socket-compatible and widely supported in legacy industrial PCB assemblies.
Can the MCHC711KS2CFNE3 operate in low-power modes?
Yes, the MCHC711KS2CFNE3 supports three low-power modes: Wait (CPU halted, peripherals active), Stop (all clocks stopped, RAM retained), and Slow (reduced bus frequency). In Stop mode, typical current draw is less than 100 µA, enabling battery-powered operation for extended periods without compromising register state retention.
