The AT8PE32F is a low-cost, high speed, high noise immunity, FLASH-based 8-bit CMOS microcontrollers. It employs a RISC architecture with only 41 instructions. All instructions are single cycle except for program branches which take two cycles. The easy to use and easy to remember instruction set reduces development time significantly.
