Microchip Announces Universal 8-bit PIC® Microcontrollers for Next-Generation Analog and Digital Peripherals

The world's leading supplier of integrated microcontrollers, analog devices and flash memory Solutions - Microchip Technology Inc. (Microchip Technology, USA) Announces the Launch of a New 8-bit Single-Chip Microcontroller (MCU) Family with Next-Generation Analog and Digital Peripherals for General-Purpose Applications and Battery Charging, LED Lighting, Ballast Control, Power Conversion, and System Control Applications The ideal choice.

The PIC12F(HV)752 MCU integrates complementary output generator (COG) peripherals that provide non-overlapping complementary waveforms for inputs such as comparators and pulse width modulation (PWM) peripherals, while implementing dead-time control, automatic shutdown, Automatic reset, phase control and blanking control. In addition, the new MCU features 1.75 KB of self-read/write program memory, 64 bytes of RAM, on-chip 10-bit ADC, capture/compare/PWM module, high-performance comparator (response time less than 40 ns) and two 50 mA drive capability I/O helps engineers improve overall system functionality and reduce costs.

Engineers have always faced the challenge of reducing system costs while improving system performance and efficiency, especially with recent LED lighting and battery charging applications. The PIC12F(HV)752 MCU meets these needs with its integrated COG, high-performance comparator, and rich on-chip general-purpose and dedicated peripherals that can directly drive the MOSFET's 50 mA output.

The PIC12HV752 MCU is a high-voltage device in this family and integrates a shunt regulator that allows the device to operate from a 2V to unspecified user-defined maximum voltage with an operating current of less than 2 mA. This high-voltage device is ideal for cost-sensitive applications that use high-voltage power rails. In addition, 4-channel 10-bit ADCs can be used to implement a variety of sensors and mTouchTM touch sensing applications, including capacitive touch.
