Overview

The PIC16F18875-I/P is an 8-bit microcontroller featuring Microchip's eXtreme Low Power (XLP) technology and Functional Safety (FuSa) features in a classic 40-pin PDIP package. It operates at up to 32MHz with 14KB of Flash memory and includes specialized Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) like Configurable Logic Cells and a Signal Measurement Timer to reduce CPU overhead.

Why Choose This Part

This MCU provides a high I/O count of 36 pins in a through-hole package, making it ideal for hardware prototyping. The inclusion of hardware-based safety features and Core Independent Peripherals allows for complex timing and logic operations to run with minimal power consumption and high reliability.

Applications

Functional Safety Systems
Utilizes the integrated hardware CRC/SCAN and Windowed Watchdog Timer (WWDT) to meet safety-critical requirements in industrial environments.
Prototyping and Education
The 40-pin PDIP form factor allows for direct insertion into breadboards and sockets for rapid firmware development and testing.
Low-Power Sensor Nodes
Leverages XLP technology and IDLE/DOZE modes to minimize power consumption in battery-operated monitoring devices.
Custom Logic Integration
Uses Configurable Logic Cells (CLC) to implement glue logic or hardware-based state machines without using CPU cycles.

Getting Started

Develop firmware using the MPLAB X IDE and the XC8 C Compiler. For hardware debugging and programming, use the MPLAB PICkit 4 or MPLAB Snap connected via the ICSP interface. Microchip's Code Configurator (MCC) is recommended for quickly initializing the Core Independent Peripherals and pin mapping.
