Overview

The MSM66591/ML66592 are high performance 16-bit microcontrollers that contain a 16-bit CPU (nX-8/500S), ROM, RAM, a 10-bit A/D converter, serial ports, flexible timers, and PWMs.

The ML66592 is the same as the MSM66591 with the exception that the ML66592 has an increased ROM and RAM capacity and a higher operating speed. Table 1-1 lists the functional differences between the MSM66591 and ML66592.

The MSM66Q591 is a Flash EEPROM version of the MSM66591. The ML66Q592 is a Flash EEPROM version of the ML66592.
