 Pin-sharing elimination

Have you ever had the experience of thinking you'd finally found the right MCU, only to discover that the part lacked the number of pins to support the required functions? This proprietary feature prevents the selection of parts that have shared functional use on the same pin. This is done by eliminating MCU parts in a search that functionally have the desired requirements but not the physical number of pins to support those functions simultaneously and individually.

Searchable across all major MCU manufacturers

Are you tired of having to search for MCU's via individual manufacturers' databases? Gopher's database of searchable parameters is extensive and consistent and can search simultaneously across all major manufacturers (see Product Status).

3

Consistency in the searchable parameters

The parametric data for each parameter is consistently described and searchable ~ e.g. standardization of all parameter headings along with normalization of all data for each of the parameters, allowing for concise searches across all MCU manufacturers.

4

"Top X-Truncation"

If too many MCU parts come back on the output display, this proprietary feature helps limit the output to a manageable number of parts.  User can truncate the search returns to show ONLY those parts that represent the best fit according to their pre-set preferences. The search can be narrowed iteratively by eliminating unnecessary functionality that is either unwanted or unneeded.

5

No limits on search criteria

Searches allow as many parameters as necessary to be specified at the same time.

6

Quick response

The search engine provides quick responsive searches (matter of seconds) regardless of the volumes of data being searched ~ e.g. number of manufacturers, MCU parts and/or number of parameters.
