These new features make the Rabbit 4000 a clear choice for today's demanding embedded applications of connectivity and control.
Building upon the highly successful Rabbit 3000 microprocessor, the Rabbit 4000 is available in two RoHS compliant packages, 128-pin LQFP and 128-pin TFBGA configurations.
The new features include integrated 10Base-T Ethernet, hardware DMA, 16-bit memory device support, and page-mode memory device support.
Features also include hardware security features, hardware breakpoints, variable-phase PWM, and up to 40 GPIO with up to 4 levels of alternate pin functions.
More than 500 new instructions were added to increase the processing speed and efficiency.
Programming the Rabbit 4000 microprocessor is simple with the industry-proven Dynamic C software development system.
Our successful integration of hardware and software substantially reduces development time and cost.
In addition, the Rabbit 4000 microprocessor is programmable in-circuit without costly in-circuit emulators, using a simple programming cable provided with the Rabbit 4000 development kits.
Integrated features of the Rabbit 4000 allow embedded engineers to develop smaller designs, enabling for diverse implementation.
