Product details
Overview
S9KEAZN8ACFKR from NXP Semiconductors is an automotive-qualified Arm® Cortex-M0+ microcontroller with 8 KB flash, 1 KB RAM, and operation up to 48 MHz - designed for cost-sensitive, low-power embedded control in engine management, body electronics, and sensor interface modules.
For engineers reviewing the S9KEAZN8ACFKR datasheet, S9KEAZN8ACFKR pinout, S9KEAZN8ACFKR application, or S9KEAZN8ACFKR equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package mapping, functional alternatives, and supply-chain-ready availability details - all confirmed against NXP's KEA128 Sub-Family Data Sheet Rev. 7 (2026).
Technical Context
This MCU implements a single-cycle 32-bit x 32-bit multiplier and single-cycle I/O access port for deterministic real-time control. Its clock system integrates a factory-trimmed 37.5 kHz internal reference enabling 48 MHz system clock generation via FLL, plus support for external crystals (32.768 kHz or 4–24 MHz) with selectable low-power/high-gain oscillator modes.
The device includes a programmable cyclic redundancy check (CRC) module, bit manipulation engine (BME), and aliased SRAM bitband region for efficient peripheral register access. Power management supports Run, Wait, and Stop modes with sub-2 µA Stop current (VDD = 3 V, LPO active), and low-voltage detection with four configurable warning thresholds.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| S9KEAZ128AMLK | 128 KB flash, 16 KB RAM, same 80-pin LQFP package and core architecture | Supports larger firmware images and complex RTOS-based stacks; higher memory overhead for bootloader and secure boot. | Select when firmware size exceeds 8 KB or when future feature expansion requires headroom in flash/RAM. |
| MKE02Z64VLC2 | Same Kinetis E-series M0+ core, 64 KB flash, 8 KB RAM, 48 MHz, but 48-pin LQFP package | Limited GPIO count (42 vs. 71) and no MSCAN - requires external CAN transceiver and additional level-shifting for mixed-voltage systems. | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where CAN is optional and BOM cost reduction outweighs peripheral flexibility. |
Compared with S9KEAZN8ACFKR, S9KEAZ128AMLK offers scalable memory for evolving firmware, while MKE02Z64VLC2 trades pin count and integrated CAN for smaller footprint and lower unit cost - both require validation of thermal derating and EMC performance in target environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the S9KEAZN8ACFKR?
The S9KEAZN8ACFKR operates at up to 48 MHz using its internal FLL with factory-trimmed 37.5 kHz reference or external crystal input. This frequency is fully supported across the −40 to +125 °C temperature range and 2.7–5.5 V supply, enabling deterministic real-time control in automotive environments. The S9KEAZN8ACFKR achieves this without external PLL components, reducing BOM count and layout complexity.
Does the S9KEAZN8ACFKR include a CAN controller?
Yes, the S9KEAZN8ACFKR integrates a fully compliant ISO 11898-1 MSCAN module supporting CAN 2.0B protocol with message buffering, error handling, and automatic retransmission. It requires only an external CAN transceiver (e.g., TJA1042) to complete the physical layer - no additional protocol accelerator or software stack is needed for standard vehicle network communication.
What package type and pin count does the S9KEAZN8ACFKR use?
The S9KEAZN8ACFKR is supplied in an 80-pin LQFP package (14 mm × 14 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), matching the mechanical and thermal profile of other KEA128-family devices like S9KEA128P80M48SF0. This package supports full GPIO, peripheral, and debug pinout access while maintaining compatibility with standard automotive PCB assembly processes and JEDEC MSL-3 handling requirements.
Can the S9KEAZN8ACFKR operate in low-power Stop mode with analog peripherals active?
Yes, the S9KEAZN8ACFKR supports Stop mode with the 12-bit SAR ADC and analog comparators (ACMP) enabled - achieving typical current draw of 82 µA (ADC active) or 12 µA (ACMP active) at 3 V. This capability allows continuous battery monitoring or sensor wake-up triggering without CPU intervention, extending operational life in always-on automotive modules.
Is the S9KEAZN8ACFKR automotive-qualified?
Yes, the S9KEAZN8ACFKR carries S-prefix qualification per NXP's part numbering scheme, indicating full AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40 to +125 °C) compliance. It includes automotive-specific features such as enhanced ESD robustness (±6 kV HBM), latch-up immunity (±100 mA), and validated thermal performance in 80-pin LQFP - meeting OEM requirements for under-hood and chassis-mounted control units.
