MCHPPIC16F18345-I/SS
Overview
The PIC16F18345-I/SS is an 8-bit PIC16 microcontroller featuring Microchip's eXtreme Low Power (XLP) technology and Functional Safety (FuSa) features for reliable embedded control. It operates at up to 32MHz with 14KB of Flash memory and 256 bytes of EEPROM in a compact 20-SSOP package. This device integrates versatile Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) like Configurable Logic Cells (CLC) and a Complementary Waveform Generator (CWG) to reduce CPU overhead.
Why Choose This Part
This MCU excels in low-power efficiency, drawing as little as 40uA in sleep mode while maintaining memory retention. The inclusion of Peripheral Pin Select (PPS) allows flexible routing of digital I/O to any pin, simplifying PCB layout. Its Core Independent Peripherals enable complex tasks, such as signal modulation and logic functions, to be handled entirely in hardware, freeing up the CPU for application logic.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Development is supported by the MPLAB X IDE and the XC8 C Compiler. For rapid prototyping, use the Curiosity Development Board (DM164137) or the MPLAB PICkit 4 in-circuit debugger. Microchip's MPLAB Code Configurator (MCC) is recommended to graphically initialize the Core Independent Peripherals and PPS settings.
