SPI

Flash Interface and MC-Compliant CIR Port

(Revisions A4 and A5)

General Description

The Nuvoton WPC8765L and WPC8769L are highly inte-

grated embedded controllers (EC) with an embedded RISC

core and integrated advanced functions. They are targeted

for a wide range of portable applications.

The WPC8765L/WPC8769L incorporate the CompactRISC®

CR16CPlus core (a high-performance 16-bit RISC proces-

sor), on-chip ROM and RAM memories, system support func-

tions and a Flash Interface Unit (FIU) that interfaces directly

with external SPI flash memory devices.

System support functions include: watchdog, PWM, timers,

interrupt control, General-Purpose I/O (GPIO) with internal

keyboard matrix scanning, PS/2® interface, SMBus® inter-

face, UART, SPI™, high-accuracy analog-to-digital (ADC)

and digital-to-analog (DAC) converters for battery charging,

system control, system health monitoring and analog con-

trols, and a SensorPath™ interface.

The WPC8765L/WPC8769L interface with the host via an

LPC interface.The WPC8765L/WPC8769L are PC01 and

ACPI compliant, and offer a single-chip solution for the most

commonly used notebook PC I/O peripherals.
