Microchip PIC16F883 8-Bit Microcontroller 7KB Flash SOIC-28

The Microchip PIC16F883 is an 8-bit CMOS flash-based microcontroller with 7KB of flash program memory, forming part of the robust PIC16F88x series. Its architecture combines high performance with extensive peripheral integration, making it a flexible choice for a wide range of embedded control applications.

Overview

At its core is a high-performance RISC CPU operating at up to 20 MHz. The device provides 7KB of flash program memory, 256 bytes of EEPROM data memory and 256 bytes of RAM. Its self-reprogrammability under software control allows for flexible in-field updates. For secure development and debugging, it supports In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP) and In-Circuit Debug (ICD) via two pins.

Key Features

• Enhanced Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (EUSART) for serial communication
• Synchronous serial port configurable as 3-wire SPI or 2-wire I2C
• 11-channel, 10-bit Analogue-to-Digital (A/D) converter
• Two capture/compare/PWM modules, one of which is an Enhanced Capture/Compare/PWM (ECCP) module with auto-shutdown and PWM steering
• Two analogue comparators
• Extended watchdog timer with on-chip RC oscillator
• Power-on reset (POR), power-saving sleep mode and two start-up timers (OST and PWRT)

Applications

The device is designed for embedded control applications and is built for industrial and automotive environments. Its integrated peripherals are intended to minimise the need for external components, while its two-pin debug interface supports development and debugging work.

Package and Dimensions

Housed in a compact 28-pin SOIC surface-mount package, the PIC16F883 has a width of 3.3, a depth of 1.5 and a height of 4.3, with a weight of 2.963 g. Full details are listed in the Additional Information section.
