Overview

The PIC16F1824-I/P is an 8-bit microcontroller featuring Microchip's eXtreme Low Power (XLP) technology and integrated mTouch capacitive sensing capability. Operating at up to 32MHz, it provides 7KB of flash memory and a versatile set of peripherals including I2C, SPI, and EUSART in a technician-friendly 14-pin PDIP package.

Why Choose This Part

This MCU offers a high performance-to-power ratio with a 32MHz internal oscillator that eliminates the need for external crystals. The inclusion of automatic interrupt context saving and 256 bytes of EEPROM simplifies firmware development for state-retention and high-speed task switching.

Applications

Capacitive Touch Interfaces
Utilizes the integrated mTouch sensing module for reliable buttons, sliders, and proximity sensors in consumer or industrial panels.
Battery-Powered Remote Sensors
Leverages XLP technology to minimize power consumption in sleep and active modes for extended battery life in wireless monitoring.
Power Management Controllers
Acts as a dedicated controller for power-on reset (POR) and brown-out detect (BOR) sequences in larger multi-rail systems.
Automated LED Control
Uses on-board PWM modules and internal oscillators to manage lighting effects and brightness levels without external clock components.

Getting Started

Develop firmware using the MPLAB X IDE and the XC8 compiler. Hardware programming and debugging are typically performed using the MPLAB PICkit 4 or Snap debugger via the 14-pin PDIP's ICSP interface. Breadboard prototyping is straightforward due to the DIP package's 0.1-inch lead spacing.

Also Consider

PIC16F1825-I/P MCHPMicrochip Technology - Provides double the flash memory (14KB) and RAM (512B) in the same 14-pin PDIP footprint for larger codebases.
