Samsung's SAM8 family of 8-bit single-chip CMOS microcontrollers S3C863A offers a fast and efficient CPU with a wide range of integrated peripherals, in various mask-programmable ROM sizes. Analog S3C863A's major CPU features are:

  - Efficient register-oriented architecture
  - Selectable CPU clock sources
  - Idle and Stop power-down mode release by interrupt
  - Built-in basic timer with watchdog function

The sophisticated interrupt structure of S3C863A recognizes up to eight interrupt levels. Each level can have one or more interrupt sources and vectors. Fast interrupt processing (within a minimum of four CPU clocks) can be assigned to specific interrupt levels.

S3C863A single-chip 8-bit microcontrollers are based on the powerful SAM8 CPU architecture. The internal register file is logically expanded to increase the on-chip register space. S3C8639/C863A/P863A contain 32/48 Kbytes of onchip program ROM.

In line with Samsung's modular design approach, the following peripherals of S3C863A are integrated with the SAM8 core:
  - Four programmable I/O ports (total 27 pins)
  - One 8-bit basic timer for oscillation stabilization and watchdog functions
  - One 8-bit general-purpose timer/counter with selectable clock sources
  - One interval timer
  - One 12-bit counter with selectable clock sources, including Hsync or Csync input
  - PWM block with seven 8-bit PWM circuits
  - Sync processor block (for Vsync and Hsync I/O, Csync input, and Clamp signal output)
  - DDC Multi-master and slave-only IIC-Bus
  - 4-channel A/D converter (8-bit resolution)

S3C863A are a versatile microcontrollers which are ideal for use in multi-sync monitors or in general-purpose applications that require sophisticated timer/counter, PWM, sync signal processing, A/D converter, and multi-master IIC-bus support with DDC. They are available in a 42-pin SDIP or a 44-pin QFP package.
