Microchip PIC12F182X and PIC16F19XX 8-bit PIC Microcontrollers
Microchip Technology introduced the PIC12F182X and PIC16F19XX 8-bit PIC microcontrollers (MCUs). The PIC1XF182X MCUs include dual I2C/SPI interfaces, multiple PWM channels with independent time bases, a Data Signal Modulator, and other peripherals. The PIC16F19XX MCUs provide up to 28 KB of Flash program memory. The on-chip LCD drive supports up to 184 segments and provides a low-power drive mode for increased efficiency. The MCUs also include up to 5 Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) channels with independent time bases for controlling various motor types and peripherals.
The new microcontrollers feature active currents of less than 50 µA/MHz and sleep currents down to 20 nA. The PIC1XF182X and PIC16F19XX MCUs are available in DFN, PDIP, QFN, SOIC, TQFP, TSSOP and UQFN packages of varying sizes, from 8- to 64-pins. Prices range from $0.69 to $1.74 each, in 10,000-unit quantities. The general-purpose MCUs are ideal for applications in the appliance, consumer, industrial, and automotive markets.
