Introducing the EFM8BB5
Silicon Labs has announced the newest addition to the 8-bit portfolio, the EFM8BB5, which empowers developers with a versatile, highly integrated platform, ideal for transitioning from older 8-bit offerings. With compact package options as small as 2 mm x 2 mm and competitive pricing to cater to even the most budget-conscious designers, the BB5 family excels both as a means to augment existing products with simple functionality and as the primary MCU.
