Microchip Technology, Inc. Microcontrollers PIC17C42A-33E/P

The PIC17C42A-33E/P is a high-performance 8-bit CMOS microcontroller featuring 2K of EPROM memory and 232 bytes of RAM. It operates within a voltage range of 2.5V to 6.0V and is designed for low power consumption, with a typical current draw of less than 5 mA at 5V and 4 MHz. The device supports a maximum clock input of 33 MHz and executes most instructions in a single cycle, with a cycle time of 121 ns for program branches and table operations. This microcontroller includes a variety of integrated features such as an 8-bit timer/counter (TMR2), a 16-bit timer/counter (TMR3), and a Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART). It also offers special functions like Power-on Reset (POR), a Watchdog Timer (WDT), and a power-saving SLEEP mode. The device has 33 I/O pins with individual direction control and supports high current sink/source capabilities for direct LED driving. The PIC17C42A-33E/P is suitable for applications requiring reliable operation in both commercial and industrial temperature ranges. Its fully static design and code protection features make it a robust choice for embedded systems.
