Winbond W78E52C/W78E052C 8-bit Microcontroller Datasheet
The W78E52C/W78E052C is an 8‑bit CMOS microcontroller compatible with the standard 8051 instruction set. It offers 8 KB Flash EPROM, 256 bytes RAM, four 8‑bit bi‑directional I/O ports, an extra 4‑bit port, three 16‑bit timer/counters, a full‑duplex UART, and a hardware watchdog timer. The device operates from a 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply and supports idle and power‑down power‑saving modes.
The datasheet is organized into sections covering general description, features, pin configurations and descriptions, functional blocks, security bits, electrical characteristics, timing waveforms, typical application circuits, package dimensions, and revision history. It also lists the eight interrupt sources and provides package options (DIP‑40, PLCC‑44, PQFP‑44).
