Application

The PIC16C5X series ?ts perfectly in applications rang-ing from high-speed automotive and appliance motor control to low-power remote transmitters/receivers, pointing devices and telecom processors. The EPROM technology makes customizing application programs (transmitter codes, motor speeds, receiver frequen- cies, etc.) extremely fast and convenient. The small footprint packages, for through hole or surface mount- ing, make this microcontroller series perfect for applica-tions with space limitations. Low-cost, low-power, high performance, ease of use and I/O ?exibility make the
PIC16C5X series very versatile even in areas where no microcontroller use has been considered before (e.g.,timer functions, replacement of °glue°± logic in larg systems, coprocessor applications).

Description

The PIC16C5X from Microchip Technology is a family of low-cost, high performance, 8-bit, fully static, EPROM/ ROM-based CMOS microcontrollers. It employs a RISC architecture with only 33 single word/single cycle instructions. All instructions are sin- gle cycle (200 ns) except for program branches which take two cycles. The PIC16C5X delivers performance an order of magnitude higher than its competitors in the same price category. The 12-bit wide instructions are highly symmetrical resulting in 2:1 code compression over other 8-bit microcontrollers in its class. The easy to use and easy to remember instruction set reduces development time signi?cantly.

The PIC16C5X products are equipped with special fea-tures that reduce system cost and power requirements.The Power-On Reset (POR) and Device Reset Timer (DRT) eliminate the need for external reset circuitry. There are four oscillator con?gurations to choose from, including the power-saving LP (Low Power) oscillator and cost saving RC oscillator. Power saving SLEEP mode, Watchdog Timer and code protection features improve system cost, power and reliability.

The UV erasable CERDIP packaged versions are ideal for code development, while the cost-effective One Time Programmable (OTP) versions are suitable for production in any volume. The customer can take full advantage of Microchip°Os price leadership in OT microcontrollers while bene?ting from the OTP's exibility.

The PIC16C5X products are supported by a full-featured macro assembler, a software simulator, an in-circuit emulator, a °AEC°O compiler, fuzzy logic suppo tools, a low-cost development programmer, and a full featured programmer. All the tools are supported on IBM^® PC and compatible machines.
