MCHPPIC18F13K22-I/SS
Overview
The PIC18F13K22-I/SS is a high-performance 8-bit microcontroller from Microchip's XLP (eXtreme Low Power) family, featuring 8KB of Flash and 256 bytes of RAM in a compact 20-SSOP package. It operates at speeds up to 64MHz using an internal 16MHz oscillator with a 4x PLL, balancing high-speed processing with low power consumption. This MCU includes a hardware 8x8 multiplier and essential peripherals like I2C, SPI, and UART for robust embedded communication.
Why Choose This Part
This device features a C-compiler optimized architecture and a single-cycle hardware multiplier, which significantly improves computational throughput compared to standard 8-bit MCUs. Its XLP technology reduces sleep currents to as low as 34uA, while the precision internal oscillator eliminates the need for external timing components in most designs.
