Microchip PIC10F200 8-bit Flash Microcontroller, 384Byte, DIP8

The Microchip PIC10F200-I/P is a low-cost, high-performance 8-bit microcontroller, offering an efficient solution for embedded system designs. Built with fully static flash-based CMOS technology and housed in an 8-pin DIP package, it combines affordability with reliable performance for a wide range of applications.

Utilising a streamlined RISC architecture with only 33 single-word instructions, it simplifies programming and significantly reduces development time. Most instructions execute in a single 1µs cycle, ensuring responsive operation, while program branches take just two cycles.

Key features include integrated power-on reset (POR) and a device reset timer (DRT), which eliminate the need for external reset circuitry, reducing overall system cost and complexity. Its low-power, high-speed flash technology is ideal for battery-powered or energy-conscious projects.

Core Specifications:

• Memory: 384 bytes of flash program memory and 16 bytes of SRAM.
• I/O: Four configurable I/O pins for interfacing with sensors, switches, and other peripherals.
• Clock & Timing: Supports a maximum internal clock frequency of 4MHz and includes an 8-bit real-time clock/counter (TMR0) with an 8-bit programmable pre-scaler.
• Voltage & Robustness: Operates from a wide voltage range of 2V to 5.5V and across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.
• Development Support: Features In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP) and In-Circuit Debugging (ICD) support for easy programming and troubleshooting. A watchdog timer (WDT) with a dedicated on-chip RC oscillator enhances system reliability.

This microcontroller is part of the proven PIC10 family and is particularly suited for compact, cost-sensitive designs where space and power are at a premium.
