Embedded Multitasking Computer
in small modules

The smallest computer of the BASIC-Tigerâ„¢ family with full multitasking comfort and enough memory for programs with with thousand of lines of code (with 512 KB FLASH). Econo-Tigerâ„¢ are used when low cost and minimal size are essential for your project.

Despite the small size Econo-Tigerâ„¢ modules are full, powerful multitasking computers with universal operation range. Econo-Tigersâ„¢ contain everything in the module the run the program stored in FLASH directly after power-on. Also fully available is the source-level debugging for the development phase and for program modifications and in-field updates.

Econo-Tigersâ„¢ execute fast running Tiger-BASICâ„¢ programs with up to 32 BASIC tasks and all available device drivers and functions of the function library. The 512 kbyte FLASH is large enough to store programs of several thousand code lines - sufficient for small to medium projects. Free FLASH areas (Sector size 64 kbyte) can be used as permanent READ-WRITE-ERASE data memory, like e.g.:

Storage of fixed parameters, characteristic curves, lookup tables, ... etc.
Storage of changeable settings, which have to keep changeable while application is running
Classic data acquisition as in datalogger applications
Storage of small pictures and graphics, short sound sequences... etc.

BASIC-Tiger, TINY-Tiger and Econo-Tiger in the 3rd generation

same Mechanic â€“ size, dimension, pitch
1:1 pin compatible
5.0V VCC
I/Os 5V tolerant, 3.3V outputs, LVTTL-compatible. Ref. datasheets of the Tiger plus
Analog-Inputs 0..5V as before
Software: Highly Source-Code compatible. Recompile with new IDE needed.
Speed of signals: Highly compatible â€“ bus-access-timings, shift-in, shift-out, timings etc.

Features:

ca. 28 x 39 x 10 mm, 28 pins, ca. 20g
Power consumption: 4.7...5.5V / 50mA -
Power-on reset internal + reset input
24 universal I/O lines
2 serial channels with TTL level
4 AD channels 10 bit, internal Vref = 5V from power supply
128 / 512 KByte Static-RAM

The size of the data FLASH area automatically results from the FLASH area not used for storing the program.

Econo-Tigersâ„¢ are used when low costs are very important and yet the advantages of the BASIC-Tigerâ„¢ family are required:

Highly stable multitasking system
Fast running code
Comfortable drivers and functions
Shortest development times
In-field updates
Easy expansion and maintainance of projects

As development platform all offered kits, from the Starter Kit to the Development Kit Professional, can be used. By using an adapter, the Econo-Tigerâ„¢ can be operated in sockets for TINY-Tigerâ„¢ or BASIC-Tigerâ„¢ modules.

It is recommended to choose an ENN-4/4 module (512 kByte FLASH + 512 kByte SRAM) or the TCN-4/4 for development. So it is ensured that you have the maximum memory for this module family available and when you bring your product into series, you use the appropriate type with the memory configuration you really need.
