Microchip Technology, Inc. Microcontrollers PIC16LF1579-E/SS

The PIC16LF1579-E/SS is an 8-bit microcontroller from Quarktwin Technology Ltd. that operates at clock speeds up to 32 MHz and features 14 KB of Flash program memory and 1024 bytes of SRAM. It includes four 16-bit Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) outputs with independent timers, making it suitable for applications requiring high-resolution control, such as LED lighting and motor control. The device supports various communication protocols through its Enhanced Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transceiver (EUSART) and offers Peripheral Pin Select (PPS) for flexible I/O pin configuration. This microcontroller operates within a voltage range of 1.8V to 3.6V and is rated for industrial temperature ranges from -40¬8C to 85¬8C, with extended options up to 125¬8C. It features low-power modes, achieving sleep currents as low as 20 nA, which is beneficial for battery-operated devices. The integrated analog peripherals include a 10-bit ADC with up to 12 channels, two comparators, and a 5-bit DAC, enhancing its versatility for mixed-signal applications. The device is packaged in a 20-SSOP format, making it suitable for space-constrained designs.
