- Lowest MCU active current (150 μA / MHz at 24.5 MHz)
- Lowest MCU wake on touch average current (< 1 μA)
- Lowest sleep current using internal RTC and supply brownout (< 300 nA)
- Ultra-fast wake up for digital and analog peripherals (< 2 μs)
- Integrated LDO to maintain ultra-low active current at all voltages
- Up to 14 capacitive sense channels
- 25 MHz core frequency
- Priority crossbar for flexible routing
