Overview

The PIC10F204T-I/OT is an ultra-compact 8-bit RISC microcontroller housed in a space-saving 6-pin SOT-23 package. Running at a fixed 4MHz internal clock, it offers a simple architecture with 384 bytes of program memory and basic peripherals like a Watchdog Timer (WDT) and Power-on Reset (POR).

Why Choose This Part

This MCU is optimized for extremely small footprints and low power consumption, drawing as little as 0.35 uA in sleep mode. Its wide operating voltage range of 2.0V to 5.5V and high I/O sink/source capability of 25mA make it highly versatile for interfacing directly with various peripheral components.

Applications

Simple Glue Logic Replacement
Replacing multiple discrete logic gates or timing circuits in space-constrained consumer electronics.
Power Sequencing
Managing simple power-up and power-down sequences for larger system processors or FPGAs.
Basic Interface Bridging
Handling simple GPIO expansion or signal inversion where a full-featured MCU would be overkill.
User Interface Control
Managing simple push-button logic or LED status indicators in small battery-powered devices.
