MEC1618/MEC1618i
is the mixed signal base component of a multi-device advanced I/O
controller architecture. It incorporates a high-performance 32-bit ARC
625D embedded microcontroller with a 192 Kilobyte Embedded Flash Subsystem,
16 Kilobytes of SRAM and a 1 Kilobyte EEPROM Emulation and communicates
with the system host using the Intel® Low Pin Count bus.
The product
is the Embedded Controller Base Component of a split-architecture Advanced
I/O Controller system that uses BC-LinkTM communication
protocol to access up to three companion components. The BC-LinkTM protocol
is peer-to-peer, providing communication between the MEC1618
Embedded Controller and the registers located in a companion
device. MEC1618 is directly powered by two individual suspend supply
planes (VBAT and VTR) and senses a third runtime power plane (VCC) to
provide “instant on” and system power management functions.
