GENERAL DESCRIPTION nThe PIC16C7X is a family of low-cost, high-performance, CMOS, fully-static, 8-bit microcontrollers with integrated analog-to-digital (A/D) converters, in the PIC16CXX mid-range family. nAll PIC16/17 microcontrollers employ an advanced RISC architecture. The PIC16CXX microcontroller family has enhanced core features, eight-level deep stack, and multiple internal and external interrupt sources. The separate instruction and data buses of the Harvard architecture allow a 14-bit wide instruction word with the separate 8-bit wide data. The two stage instruction pipeline allows all instructions to execute in a single cycle, except for program branches which require two cycles. A total of 35 instructions (reduced instruction set) are available. Additionally, a large register set gives some of the architectural innovations used to achieve a very high performance.nPIC16C7X Microcontroller Core Features: n• High-performance RISC CPU n• Only 35 single word instructions to learn n• All single cycle instructions except for program branches which are two cycle n• Operating speed: DC - 20 MHz clock input DC - 200 ns instruction cycle n• Up to 8K x 14 words of Program Memory, up to 368 x 8 bytes of Data Memory (RAM) n• Interrupt capability n• Eight level deep hardware stack n• Direct, indirect, and relative addressing modes n• Power-on Reset (POR) n• Power-up Timer (PWRT) and Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) n• Watchdog Timer (WDT) with its own on-chip RC oscillator for reliable operation n• Programmable code-protection n• Power saving SLEEP mode n• Selectable oscillator options n• Low-power, high-speed CMOS EPROM technology n• Fully static design n• Wide operating voltage range: 2.5V to 6.0V n• High Sink/Source Current 25/25 mA n• Commercial, Industrial and Extended temperature ranges n• Low-power consumption: n • < 2 mA @ 5V, 4 MHz n • 15 µA typical @ 3V, 32 kHz n • < 1 µA typical standby current n nPIC16C7X Peripheral Features: n• Timer0: 8-bit timer/counter with 8-bit prescaler n• Timer1: 16-bit timer/counter with prescaler, can be incremented during sleep via external crystal/clock n• Timer2: 8-bit timer/counter with 8-bit period register, prescaler and postscaler n• Capture, Compare, PWM module(s) n• Capture is 16-bit, max. resolution is 12.5 ns, Compare is 16-bit, max. resolution is 200 ns, PWM max. resolution is 10-bit n• 8-bit multichannel analog-to-digital converter n• Synchronous Serial Port (SSP) with SPI™ and I2C n• Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART/SCI) n• Parallel Slave Port (PSP) 8-bits wide, with external RD, WR and CS controls n• Brown-out detection circuitry for Brown-out Reset (BOR)
