Overview
Built on nanoWatt technology, this low pin-count PIC microcontroller brings the established mid-range x14 architecture into a space-constrained design. It operates across a wide voltage range of 2.0 to 5.5V and includes on-board EEPROM data memory for reliable non-volatile storage.
Analogue Peripherals
The device supports up to 8 channels of 10-bit Analogue-to-Digital Conversion (ADC) and includes an analogue comparator module with a programmable on-chip voltage reference.
Communications
The Enhanced USART (EUSART) peripheral supports serial communication protocols including RS-232, RS-485 and the LIN bus protocol, suiting industrial and automotive networking applications.
Key Features
- nanoWatt Technology: Designed for low power consumption, supporting extended battery life in portable and remote devices.
- Development Support: MPLAB ICD 2 programming and debugging support, with an optional header adapter.
- System Management: Software-selectable Brown-Out Reset (BOR), power-saving sleep mode, Power-on Reset (POR), and Power-up and Oscillator Start-up Timers (PWRT and OST).
- Watchdog Timer: Low-current watchdog timer (WDT) with an on-chip oscillator for fail-safe operation against code execution errors.
- Industrial Reliability: Extended operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, suited to harsh environments.
- Security: Programmable code protection and a multiplexed master clear pin with a weak pull-up.
