Note 1: Power dissipation is calculated as follows: PDIS = V_DD x {I_DD - I_OH} + {(V_DD-V_OH) x I_OH} + (V_Ol x I_OL).

† NOTICE: Stresses above those listed under 'Absolute Maximum Ratings' may cause permanent damage to the
device. This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at those or any other conditions above those
indicated in the operation listings of this specification is not implied. Exposure to maximum rating conditions for
extended periods may affect device reliability.
Note: Voltage spikes below V_SS at theMCLR pin, inducing currents greater than 80 mA, may cause latch-up. Thus, a series resistor of 50-100 should be used when applying a "low" level to the MCLR pin, rather than pulling this pin directly to V_SS.

Description

The Low Pin-count (14) PIC16F688 Flash microcontroller products offer all of the advantages of the well recognized mid-range x14 architecture with standardized features including a wide operating voltage of 2.0-5.5 volts, on-board EEPROM Data Memory, and nanoWatt Technology. Standard analog peripherals include up to 8 channels of 10-bit A/D, an analog comparator module w/ programmable on-chip voltage reference and an Enhanced USART (EUSART) peripheral that supports communications protocols such as RS232/485 as well as the LIN protocol.
