Product details
Overview
P87LPC762BDH,512 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips) is a 20-pin, low-power, OTP-based 80C51-compatible microcontroller with 2 kbyte on-chip EPROM, 128 byte RAM, dual analog comparators, I²C interface, full-duplex UART, and programmable port configurations. It operates from 2.7 V to 6.0 V and supports up to 20 MHz clocking at 5 V, targeting cost-sensitive embedded control in industrial sensors and appliance interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the P87LPC762BDH,512 datasheet, P87LPC762BDH,512 pinout, P87LPC762BDH,512 application, or P87LPC762BDH,512 equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated watchdog timer with independent oscillator, selectable brownout reset thresholds, quasi-bidirectional/open-drain/push-pull I/O modes, 20 mA LED drive capability per pin, and support for in-circuit serial EPROM programming with two security bits.
Technical Context
The P87LPC762BDH,512 implements an accelerated 80C51 core executing instructions in 300–600 ns at 20 MHz (VDD = 4.5–6.0 V), with dual 16-bit timers supporting overflow toggle outputs and UART baud rate generation via Timer 1. Its analog subsystem includes two independent comparators with configurable reference inputs and interrupt capability.
Power management features include Idle and Power Down modes with typical 1 µA current in Power Down, wake-up via low-level external interrupts, on-chip power-on reset, and brownout detection with interrupt option. Oscillator options include crystal/resonator, internal RC, and external clock input - all selected via EPROM configuration bits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core Architecture | Accelerated 80C51 CPU executing all instructions (except MUL/DIV) in 6 clock cycles; 2× speed vs standard 80C51. |
| Memory | 2 kbyte on-chip OTP EPROM code memory + 128 byte RAM + 32-byte customer code space for serialization or calibration data. |
| Operating Voltage | 2.7 V to 6.0 V digital supply range; enables direct battery operation (e.g., 3 V coin cell or 5 V rail) without level-shifting. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 20 MHz at 4.5–6.0 V; 10 MHz at 2.7–6.0 V - supports high-speed communication while maintaining low-voltage compatibility. |
| I/O Capability | 15–18 configurable I/O pins; each supports quasi-bidirectional, open-drain, push-pull, or input-only mode with Schmitt-trigger inputs. |
| Analog Functions | Dual analog comparators with independent positive inputs (CIN1A/B, CIN2A/B), shared negative reference (CMPREF), and dedicated output pins (CMP1, CMP2). |
| Communication | Full-duplex UART (TxD/RxD), I²C master/slave interface (SCL/SDA), and 8-keypad interrupt inputs (P0.x) for matrix scanning. |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Watchdog Timer | On-chip oscillator eliminates external components; 8 selectable timeout values enable precise fail-safe timing for safety-critical monitoring. |
| Configurable I/O Drive | Per-pin selection of quasi-bidirectional, open-drain (I²C compliant), push-pull (20 mA sink/source), or input-only mode reduces external logic and improves noise immunity. |
| Low-Voltage Brownout Detection | Two preset thresholds (e.g., 2.5 V or 3.8 V) allow graceful shutdown or interrupt-driven recovery before system instability occurs. |
| In-Circuit EPROM Programming | Serial programming interface enables field firmware updates and production-line device coding without socketing or UV erasers. |
| Controlled Slew Rate Outputs | ~10 ns minimum ramp time on all I/O pins reduces EMI emissions and prevents signal integrity issues in dense PCB layouts. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the P87LPC762BDH,512 and under what voltage conditions?
The P87LPC762BDH,512 supports a maximum operating frequency of 20 MHz when powered at 4.5 V to 6.0 V, and 10 MHz across the full 2.7 V to 6.0 V range. This dual-frequency capability allows flexible design for both 5 V legacy systems and 3 V battery-powered applications without performance compromise.
Does the P87LPC762BDH,512 support in-system programming, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the P87LPC762BDH,512 supports serial in-circuit EPROM programming via its UART interface using standard ISP protocols. This enables firmware loading and device configuration directly on the target PCB without removing the IC, reducing manufacturing steps and supporting field updates with proper bootloader implementation.
How many analog comparators does the P87LPC762BDH,512 integrate, and what are their key configuration options?
The P87LPC762BDH,512 integrates two independent analog comparators (CMP1 and CMP2). Each accepts two positive inputs (CIN1A/B, CIN2A/B) and shares a common negative reference input (CMPREF). Configuration is performed via dedicated SFRs (CMP1#, CMP2#) to enable/disable, select inputs, and generate interrupts on output transitions.
What power-saving modes are available on the P87LPC762BDH,512, and what is the typical current consumption in the lowest-power state?
The P87LPC762BDH,512 offers Idle and Power Down modes. In Power Down mode, typical current consumption is 1 µA, with wake-up triggered by external interrupts (e.g., INT0, INT1, or keypad inputs). This makes the P87LPC762BDH,512 suitable for battery-operated devices requiring extended standby life.
Can the P87LPC762BDH,512 operate without external oscillator components, and if so, how is this achieved?
Yes, the P87LPC762BDH,512 can operate without external oscillator components using its on-chip RC oscillator option. This mode is selected via EPROM configuration bits, enabling full functionality-including UART and I²C-with only VDD and VSS connections required, significantly simplifying board layout and reducing BOM cost.
