Overview

The PIC12F1571-I/P is an 8-bit microcontroller featuring three independent 16-bit PWMs designed for high-resolution control in space-constrained applications. Housed in a 8-pin PDIP package, it integrates a 10-bit ADC, a 5-bit DAC, and 3.5 KB of Flash memory, operating at up to 32 MHz.

Why Choose This Part

This MCU stands out by offering three independent 16-bit PWM peripherals in a tiny 8-pin footprint, a feature rarely found in entry-level 8-bit devices. Its wide operating voltage range from 2.3V to 5.5V and low-power characteristics make it versatile for both battery-powered and industrial 5V systems.

Applications

RGB LED Color Mixing
Utilizes the three 16-bit PWM channels to provide precise brightness and color control for multi-color LED modules.
Small Engine Control
Acts as a compact controller for ignition timing and fuel management in small combustion engines.
Digital Power Conversion
The high-resolution PWMs and internal comparator allow for simple DC-DC converter feedback loops.
Consumer Appliances
Provides basic logic and user interface control for handheld devices or kitchen electronics.

Getting Started

Development is supported through the MPLAB X IDE and the XC8 compiler, with hardware debugging possible via the PICkit 4 or MPLAB Snap programmers. Use the MPLAB Code Configurator (MCC) plugin to quickly initialize the 16-bit PWM and internal oscillator settings.
