Overview

The PIC18F27Q10-I/SO is an 8-bit microcontroller featuring 128KB of Flash memory and a 64MHz internal oscillator. Part of the PIC18-Q10 family, it integrates Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) and eXtreme Low-Power (XLP) technology to minimize power consumption in battery-operated systems. Its 28-pin SOIC package provides a balance of I/O density and ease of manufacturing for compact embedded designs.

Why Choose This Part

This MCU offers a 31-level deep hardware stack and a C-compiler optimized RISC architecture for efficient code execution. The inclusion of hardware-based peripherals like the Windowed Watchdog Timer (WWDT) and Complementary Waveform Generator (CWG) enhances system reliability and reduces firmware overhead.

Applications

Industrial Sensor Nodes
Utilizing the 128KB Flash for complex communication stacks and internal EEPROM for non-volatile calibration data storage.
Low-Power Handheld Devices
Leveraging XLP technology and Sleep/Idle modes to extend battery life in portable instrumentation.
Hardware Interface Bridges
Implementing UART, I2C, and SPI protocols to bridge communication between legacy industrial hardware and modern sensors.
Programmable Logic Controllers
Using Configurable Logic Cells (CLC) to create custom hardware logic functions without taxing the CPU core.
