SX
These were formerly made by Ubicom, former Scenix Semiconductor. The SX die has been discontinued by Ubicom. Parallax has accumulated a large stock of
the dies and is managing the packaging.
SX-18, 20, 28, 48 and 52 versions (Note that the SX-18 and SX-52 have been discontinued)
Parallax's SX series is an 8-bit microcontroller which has unusually high speed, up to 75 MHz (75 MIPS), and a high degree of flexibility. Andre LaMothe has
shown that the SX-52 can be overclocked to 80 MHz (80 MIPS); 5 MHz above the rated clock speed. He has used the SX-52 in thousands of XGameStation
development computers all running at 80 MHz. Some users have referred to these microcontrollers as PICs on steroids. While Parallax's SX micros are limited
in variety, their high speed and additional resources allow programmers to create 'virtual devices', including complete video controllers, as required. Refer to
Parallax's Web site for information, as they are the sole distributor of these devices.
Propeller
The Propeller is a 8-core 32-bit microcontroller with 32 KB internal RAM.

Silicon Laboratories
Manufactures a line of 8-bit 8051-compatible microcontrollers, notable for high speeds (50100 MIPS) and large memories in relatively small package sizes. A free IDE is
available that supports the USB-connected ToolStick line of modular prototyping boards. These microcontrollers were originally developed by Cygnal. In 2012, the
company introduced ARM-based mixed-signal MCUs with very low power and USB options, supported by free Eclipse-based tools. The company acquired Energy Micro in
2013 and now offers a number of ARM-based 32-bit microcontrollers.

from Renesas, Infineon and Micron. The SM321E is available in a 48-pin LQFP package and a 44-pin LGA package. The SM321E supports up to 4 SLC or
MLC NAND flash chips with 4 bytes / 528 bytes ECC
SM324 USB 2.0
Supports dual-channel data transfer at read speeds of 233 (35 MB/s) and write speeds of 160 (24 MB/s), making it the fastest USB 2.0 flash disk controller in
the market. The SM324 also has serial peripheral interface (SPI) which allows for not only Master and Slave modes, but the flexibility to develop more
functionality into USB flash disk (UFD) products such as GPS, fingerprint sensor, Bluetooth and memory-capacity display. The SM324 is available in a 64-pin
LQFP package. The SM324 supports 8 SLC or MLC NAND flash chips with 4 bytes / 528 bytes ECC.
