Overview
The H8/300L Series is a series of single-chip microcomputers (MCU: microcomputer unit), built
around the high-speed H8/300L CPU and equipped with peripheral system functions on-chip.
Within the H8/300L Series, the H8/3827R Series comprises single-chip microcomputers equipped
with an LCD (liquid crystal display) controller/driver. Other on-chip peripheral functions include
six timers, a 14-bit pulse width modulator (PWM), two serial communication interface channels,
and an A/D converter. Together, these functions make the H8/3827R Series ideally suited for
embedded applications in systems requiring low power consumption and LCD display. Models in
the H8/3827R Series are the H8/3822R, with on-chip 16-kbyte ROM and 1-kbyte RAM, the
H8/3823R, with 24-kbyte ROM and 1-kbyte RAM, the H8/3824R, with 32-kbyte ROM and 2-
kbyte RAM, the H8/3825R, with 40-kbyte ROM and 2-kbyte RAM, the H8/3826R, with 48-kbyte
ROM and 2-kbyte RAM, and the H8/3827R, with 60-kbyte ROM and 2-kbyte RAM.
The H8/3827R is also available in a ZTAT™* version with on-chip PROM which can be
programmed as required by the user.
