MICROCHIP PIC16F676-I/P 8-Bit Flash Microcontroller DIP14 1.75KB

The MICROCHIP PIC16F676-I/P is a high-performance, 8-bit Flash-based CMOS microcontroller, designed for robust and reliable operation in a wide range of embedded applications. This 14-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package) device integrates a powerful feature set including 1.75KB of program memory, 128 bytes of EEPROM data memory, and 64 bytes of RAM, providing ample space for complex code and data storage.

Engineered for enhanced system integrity, it includes an internal watchdog timer, a power-saving sleep mode, and comprehensive reset protection. The on-chip circuitry features a Power-up Timer (PWRT) providing a fixed 72ms delay on start-up and a brown-out reset function, ensuring stable operation during power fluctuations—eliminating the need for external reset components in most designs.
