 		 #188843 - Most Automotive parts DO use 5V
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Oliver Sedlacek said:

The ARM chips regulate the supply down internally to 1.2-1.8V to power the core and presumably have level shifters for the IO, so you would have thought it wouldn't be that hard to do 5V.


It's not 'hard', but it does need a thicker oxide on the I/O - but very cheap (sub 50c) 8 bit Micros are available with 1.8V core and 5.5V io, and there are numerous 32 bit ones with 5V IO too.
Infineon have a lot of 5V automotive parts, 8/16/32 bits, and some new ones are even 6-27v, with included Regulators and LIN drivers.

   Available in DIP!            01/01/70 00:00      
      no continuity            01/01/70 00:00      
         It gets worse.            01/01/70 00:00      
            We need a small package            01/01/70 00:00      
               Not small enough            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Funny, that!            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Nice size, shame about price            01/01/70 00:00      
            Poor NXP, XMC1000 series announced            01/01/70 00:00      
   No 5V option            01/01/70 00:00      
      just curious            01/01/70 00:00      
         Because it is useful.            01/01/70 00:00      
         RE: why the 5V fascination?             01/01/70 00:00      
            well, you will have to redesign anyhow.            01/01/70 00:00      
         Power MOSFET drive and 5V ADC            01/01/70 00:00      
         5V can be surprisingly useful            01/01/70 00:00      
            Most Automotive parts DO use 5V            01/01/70 00:00      
            why?            01/01/70 00:00      
               Close, but no Cigar...            01/01/70 00:00

                     Silabs 6V ports for Class D audio            01/01/70 00:00      
                     which means they were thinking about logic-level MOSFET driv            01/01/70 00:00      
                        I was looking for something like this            01/01/70 00:00      
                           isn't it a pity ..            01/01/70 00:00      
                              this            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 but that is ~15 bucks :)            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    for one off            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       four bucks!            01/01/70 00:00

                                       What??? Which SiLabs clocks at >168E6?            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          he means higher than 80Mhz            01/01/70 00:00      
                           just wait            01/01/70 00:00      
                        MOSFET drive            01/01/70 00:00      
               More than 5V tolerant inputs            01/01/70 00:00      
   yeah and your problem is?            01/01/70 00:00
