ATmega1284P reduces design footprint by doubling flash and quadrupling RAM size compared to existing picoPower megaAVR microcontrollers. The small 44-pin package makes the ATmega1284P ideal for applications such as wireless and ethernet nodes, home automation and other code-intensive battery or signal-line powered products, combined with its ultra-low-power consumption, 128 KB of flash and 16 KB of random access memory (RAM). The ATmega1284P is pin- and feature-compatible to the ATmega164PA, ATmega324PA, and ATmega644PA. The four devices provide a drop-in migration path from 16 to 128 KB of flash and 1 to 16 KB of RAM. The ATmega1284P consumes 100 nA in power-down mode, 700 nA in power-save mode and 0.45 mA in active mode at 1.8 V and 1 MHz. Datasheet: ATmega1284P

The XCL205/206/207 series are 600mA, 3MHz synchronous step-down DC-DC converters with integrated inductor. The whole solution, including 1.5uH inductor, measures only 2.5mm x 2.0mm and has a package profile of only 1.0mm making it one of the smallest solutions of its kind on the market today. To limit the height of the combined coil and DC/DC converter to 1.0mm, a new ultra-flat package (USP-6EL) with a height of 0.4 mm was developed for the DC/DC converter.
Requiring only 2 external ceramic capacitors to configure a step-down circuit capable of providing efficiencies in excess of 85%, the XCL205/206/207 is ideally suited for applications that require high efficiency plus low output noise in an extremely small PCB area.
