General-purpose 8-bit MCUs

21 March 2012 DSP, Micros & Memory

New from Microchip is a family of 8-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) featuring next-generation analog and digital peripherals, making them ideal for general-purpose applications, as well as battery charging, LED lighting, ballast control, power conversion and system control applications.

The PIC12F(HV)752 MCUs feature an integrated complementary output generator (COG) peripheral that provides non-overlapping, complementary waveforms for inputs such as comparators and pulse width modulation (PWM) peripherals, while enabling deadband control, auto shutdown, auto reset, phase control and blanking control. Additionally, the new devices feature 1,75 KB of self read-write program memory, 64 B of RAM, an on-chip 10-bit ADC, capture-compare PWM modules, high-performance comparators down to 40 ns response, and two 50 mA capable I/Os.

The high-voltage variant, PIC12HV752, incorporates a shunt regulator that allows operation from 2 V to an unspecified user-defined maximum voltage level, with less than 2 mA operation current. This model is ideal for cost-sensitive applications with high-voltage power rails. Additionally, the 4-channel, 10-bit ADC can be used to implement various sensors and mTouch sensing applications, including capacitive touch.

The MCUs are available in 8-pin 3 x 3 mm DFN, as well as 8-pin PDIP and SOIC packages.
