The MC4000 High Performance Controller is the cheapest microcontroller available in the game, costing only ¥3. It has a general-purpose register "acc" and can hold up to nine lines of code. The input/output capabilities are limited to two XBus pins and two simple I/O pins.
Usage[]
The MC4000 can be programmed in the MCxxxx family common programming language consuming one unit of power per simple instruction. As the cheapest microcontroller and capable of holding only nine lines of code, it is commonly used in price and line count optimized solutions.
In game description[]
A reduced-functionality microcontroller to help lower BOM costs, the MC4000 is a flexible and versatile alternative to its larger cousin, the MC6000. Don’t let its diminutive size fool you, however: The MC4000 can easily hold its own with its generous nine lines of program memory, one general-purpose register, and four I/O pins. We are confident the MC4000 will find its way into your designs and into your heart! Contact us to request samples.
