Microchip Technology, Inc. Embedded - Microcontrollers PIC16C56-HSI/SS

The PIC16C56-HSI/SS is an 8-bit microcontroller from Quarktwin Technology Ltd. featuring a 12-bit instruction set and an 8-bit data path. It includes 1KB of EPROM memory and supports a variety of addressing modes, including direct, indirect, and relative addressing. The device operates with a clock speed of up to 20 MHz and has a two-level deep hardware stack. Key peripheral features include an 8-bit real-time clock/counter with a programmable prescaler, a watchdog timer, and a power-on reset function. The microcontroller also offers power-saving options, including a SLEEP mode, and supports multiple oscillator configurations such as low-cost RC, standard crystal, high-speed crystal, and low-frequency crystal options. The PIC16C56-HSI/SS is designed using low power, high-speed CMOS technology, allowing for a wide operating voltage range of 2.0V to 6.25V and low power consumption, with typical currents of less than 2 mA at 5V and 4 MHz, and 15 µA at 3V and 32 kHz. This microcontroller is suitable for applications requiring efficient processing and low power usage.
