This document is about the hardware manual for the M16C/Tiny series of microcomputers, which includes the M16C/26A, M16C/26B, and M16C/26T models
This hardware manual provides detailed information on the M16C/26A group microcontrollers, covering pin assignments, register definitions, electrical characteristics, and usage notes. It is intended for engineers designing application systems that incorporate these 16‑bit single‑chip MCUs.
The document includes an overview of the product, CPU architecture, peripheral functions, memory organization, and a comprehensive list of abbreviations and acronyms. General handling precautions, power‑on behavior, and guidelines for changing part numbers are also described.

Unused pins should be handled as described in the manual to avoid electromagnetic noise and false signal detection.
A system‑evaluation test should be performed for each new part number to ensure compatibility.
Release the reset line only after the operating clock signal has become stable.
