EFM8 Universal Bee Family
EFM8UB3 Reference Manual
The EFM8UB3, part of the Universal Bee family of MCUs, is a
multi-purpose line of 8-bit microcontrollers with USB feature set in
small packages.
These devices offer high value by integrating an innovative energy-smart USB peripheral
interface, charger detect circuit, 8 kV ESD protection, and enhanced high speed commu-
nication interfaces into small packages, making them ideal for space-constrained USB
applications. With an efficient 8051 core and precision analog, the EFM8UB3 family is
also optimal for embedded applications.
EFM8UB3 applications include the following:
• USB I/O controls
• Docking stations/USB hubs
• Dongles
