The PIC16F874 is an 8-bit CMOS FLASH microcontroller from Microchip Technology, Inc., featuring a high-performance RISC CPU with a maximum operating frequency of 20 MHz. It supports up to 8K x 14 words of FLASH program memory, 368 bytes of RAM, and 256 bytes of EEPROM. The device includes a variety of peripherals such as three timers, a 10-bit multi-channel Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC), and multiple communication interfaces including USART, SPI, and I¬=C. It offers 14 interrupt sources, a power-saving SLEEP mode, and a wide operating voltage range of 2.0V to 5.5V. The PIC16F874 is designed for applications requiring reliable performance in automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics. Its low power consumption and robust features make it suitable for advanced A/D applications.
A newer device is available. Please consider PIC16F884. This powerful (200 nanosecond instruction execution) yet easy-to-program (only 35 single word instructions) CMOS FLASH-based 8-bit microcontroller packs Microchip's powerful PIC® architecture into an 40- or 44-pin package and is upwards compatible with the PIC16C5X, PIC12CXXX and PIC16C7X devices. PIC16F874 features 128 bytes of EEPROM data memory, self programming, an ICD, 8 channels of 10-bit Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter, 2 additional timers, 2 capture/compare/PWM functions, the synchronous serial port can be configured as either 3-wire Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI™) or the 2-wire Inter-Integrated Circuit (I²C™) bus and a Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART). All of these features make it ideal for more advanced level A/D applications in automotive, industrial, appliances and consumer applications.
