Microchip PIC16F152xx - Enhanced Mid-Range 8-bit Microcontroller Family

The most affordable family 8/14/20-Pin MCUs for cost-sensitive and real-time control applications.

About the PIC16F152xx MCU family

The Microchip PIC16F152xx group of microcontrollers are a revolutionized version of the PIC12F150x microcontrollers. The PIC16F152xx family is available in 8, 14, 16, 20, 28 and 40-pin packages, which makes them the most affordable and ideal option for a vast range of applications such as IoT edge nodes, wearables, lighting, automotive, and factory automation.

PIC16F152xx Benefits

The PIC16F152xx microcontroller family features increased memory (up to 28KB Flash and 2KB RAM) and provides upgraded memory features such as the Memory Access Partition (MAP) to support users in data protection and bootloader applications. The PIC16F152xx also has a Device Information Area (DIA), which stores Fixed Voltage Reference (FVR) offset values to improve ADC accuracy.

The Microchip PIC16F152xx microcontroller family includes a 10-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC), Peripheral Pin Select (PPS), digital communication peripherals, timers and waveform generators. The MCUs can quickly respond and manage critical system tasks with fast data transfers and interrupt handling.

With a mix of Microchip’s popular CIPs that enable effortless hardware customization, all the above features are offered in a small 3 mm by 3 mm footprint package, which makes the PIC16F152 MCU family ideal for space-constrained applications.
