Microchip Technology
PIC PIC® XLP™ 16F, Functional Safety (FuSa) Microcontroller IC 8-Bit 32MHz 14KB (8K x 14) FLASH 20-UQFN (4x4)
Active184 in stock

Overview

The PIC16F18345-E/GZ is an 8-bit eXtreme Low Power (XLP) microcontroller featuring 14KB of Flash and a robust set of Core Independent Peripherals. Operating at up to 32MHz, it is designed for functional safety (FuSa) applications and power-sensitive environments, drawing as little as 0.3uA in sleep mode.

Why Choose This Part

This MCU features Peripheral Pin Select (PPS) for flexible I/O mapping and Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) that reduce CPU overhead and power consumption. The 20-UQFN package provides a compact 4x4mm footprint while maintaining 18 I/O pins for high-density designs.

Applications

Industrial Safety Controllers
Utilizes integrated hardware features like the Windowed Watchdog Timer and CRC/Scan to meet functional safety standards in industrial monitoring.
Battery-Powered Remote Sensors
Leverages XLP technology and 0.3uA sleep current to extend the life of coin-cell operated loT nodes.
Signal Modulation and Logic
Employs Configurable Logic Cells (CLC) and the Data Signal Modulator (DSM) to handle signal processing without CPU intervention.
Automotive Interior Control
The extended temperature range and LINbus connectivity make it suitable for cabin lighting and window control modules.
