Microchip Technology, Inc. Microcontrollers PIC16F874-20/L

The Microchip PIC16F877 is an 8-bit microcontroller operating at a maximum clock speed of 20 MHz. It features a high-performance RISC CPU with a simple instruction set of only 35 single-word instructions, allowing for efficient programming. The device includes up to 8 KB of FLASH program memory, 368 bytes of RAM, and 256 bytes of EEPROM for data storage. This microcontroller supports a variety of peripheral features, including multiple timers (Timer0, Timer1, and Timer2), two Capture/Compare/PWM modules, and a 10-bit multi-channel Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC). It also offers serial communication capabilities through a Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART) and a Synchronous Serial Port (SSP) with SPI and I¬=C support. The PIC16F877 is designed with power-saving features, including a low-power SLEEP mode and a watchdog timer for reliable operation. It operates over a wide voltage range of 2.0V to 5.5V and is available in a PLCC-44 package, making it suitable for various applications in commercial, industrial, and extended temperature environments. The device is RoHS compliant, ensuring it meets environmental standards.
