Microchip Technology, Inc. 8-bit 8BIT 3KB Embedded Microcontroller MCU PIC16C57-XT/P

The PIC16C57-XT/P is an 8-bit microcontroller from Quarktwin Technology Ltd. featuring a 28-pin Dual In-line Package (DIP) configuration. It operates at a maximum clock speed of 4 MHz and includes 2 KB of one-time programmable (OTP) memory. The device supports a variety of addressing modes and has a two-level deep hardware stack, making it suitable for a range of applications. Key peripheral features include an 8-bit timer with a programmable prescaler, power-on reset, device reset timer, and a watchdog timer with an on-chip RC oscillator. The microcontroller 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. The PIC16C57-XT/P also offers selectable oscillator options, including low-cost RC, standard crystal, high-speed crystal, and low-frequency crystal configurations. Its fully static design and power-saving sleep mode enhance its efficiency for battery-operated devices. This microcontroller is suitable for applications requiring reliable performance in a compact form factor.
