Check the EFI332 list and web site. The 68332, was derived from the
automotive world, especially the TPU. It is a very well supported processor
with lots of tools. I don't have much to say about the HC16, as never
looking at them, but might as well jump into a part that was really designed
for engine managment. Look at other chips in the 3xx line, like the 68f333,
contains Flash rom and A/D converters, or the 68336 which has some other
features.
