To all our customers
Regarding the change of names mentioned in the document, such as Mitsubishi
Electric and Mitsubishi XX, to Renesas Technology Corp.
The semiconductor operations of Hitachi and Mitsubishi Electric were transferred to Renesas
Technology Corporation on April 1st 2003. These operations include microcomputer, logic, analog
and discrete devices, and memory chips other than DRAMs (flash memory, SRAMs etc.)
Accordingly, although Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Mitsubishi
Semiconductors, and other Mitsubishi brand names are mentioned in the document, these names
have in fact all been changed to Renesas Technology Corp. Thank you for your understanding.
Except for our corporate trademark, logo and corporate statement, no changes whatsoever have been
made to the contents of the document, and these changes do not constitute any alteration to the
contents of the document itself.
Note : Mitsubishi Electric will continue the business operations of high frequency & optical devices
and power devices.

M37273M8–XXXSP, M37273MF–XXXSP
M37273E8SP, M37273EFSP
SINGLE-CHIP 8-BIT CMOS MICROCOMPUTER with CLOSED CAPTION DECODER
and ON-SCREEN DISPLAY CONTROLLER
1. DESCRIPTION
The M37273M8-XXXSP and M37273MF-XXXSP are single-chip mi-
crocomputers designed with CMOS silicon gate technology. They
have a OSD, data slicer, and I
2
C-BUS interface, so it is useful for a
channel selection system for TV with a closed caption decoder.
The features of the M37273E8SP and M37273EFSP are similar to
those of the M37273M8-XXXSP and M37273MF-XXXSP except that
the chip has a built-in PROM which can be written electrically. The
difference between M37273M8-XXXSP and M37273MF-XXXSP are
the ROM size and RAM size. Accordingly, the following descriptions
will be for the M37273M8-XXXSP.
