From the Freescale WEB documentation:

"If you find yourself needing a little more memory than what the 56F8365 has to offer, or simply need to interface to other devices in your system a parallel fashion, then the 56F8366 is the device for you. Moving to this 144-pin LQFP package allows you to take advantage of its included external memory interface for these additional tasks. You will still enjoy 576 KB of on-chip Flash memory, pulse-width modulation (PWM) outputs, analog-to-digital converter (ADC) inputs and time channels, along with the capability of interfacing with other devices in your system."

What is right with this? I hope their silicon designs receive more scrutiny than their WEB site.


I don't see your problem. For blurb it's alright, and merely points out that you can get one with an external bus. Someone should have told the copywriter that he doesn't need to go into raptures tas engineers will know about the generalities already, and to have put in about the specific capabilities like wait state generation, handshake, perhaps DRAM capability if it's got it.
