Does anyone know of an 8 bit microprocessor with at least 32K of SRAM and
32K of Flash? Or any number of bits if it's cheap (<$7 @ 1K).

Many thanks in advance.

You may find it cheaper to hook an external SRAM to an I/O port, or maybe use one of the AVRs that

have extarnal bus interface

Mike,

Which ARV has an external buss interface ????

Renesas (Hitachi) H8/300 3062 "value series" + 32K SRAM totals
about $5.50.

It doesn't meet your other spec's though: it has 128K of flash
and is a 32-bit CPU. ;)

Oh, and the tools are free.

The Philips LPC2105 has 128KB flash and 32KB RAM.

The large RAM makes that a thin space, but your choices are
- uPSD from ST, some with 32K XRAM blocks.
- ARM uC from Philips, Atmel have models with 64K
- New DS80C401 from Dallas(maxim) has 64K RAM

Ramtron have also just released FM25L256, which behaves
just like 32K serial SRAM, up to 25MHz SPI.

No, but it has 128KB of program memory. It's also self programmable.

The lowest cost AVR with this functionality is the ATmega64. It has 64 kB of
internal flash
and you can connect a latch + 32 kB of SRAM.
If you can fit into 16 kB of Flash, then the ATmega162 will do the job.

For ARM the AT91SAM7S128 which samples in January will have 128 kB of Flash
and 32 kB of SRAM.
The AT91R40008 has 256 KB of SRAM onchip, and needs external (8 bit flash)
will do the job as well.
Copy the 8 bit flash into the SRAM and then you have 60 MIPS.
May be on the border for price, but it is nice to develop in SRAM compared
to flash.

Take a look at the Renesas M16C familly - ok, 31KB of ram, but lots of
flash (up to 512KB) easy to use and cheap.
