PIC24FV16KA301-E/SS 16-bit XLP microcontroller IC 16-Bit 32MHz 16KB
The PIC24FV16KA301-E/SS is a 16-bit enhanced flash microcontroller from Microchip Technology's PIC24F "KA" series, specifically engineered for low-power embedded applications requiring robust performance in harsh environments. This feature-rich MCU combines 16KB flash memory with 2KB RAM and operates across an extended voltage range (2.0V to 3.6V), making it ideal for battery-powered medical devices, industrial sensors, and IoT edge nodes. The device incorporates Microchip's nanoWatt XLP technology, delivering ultra-low power consumption with sleep currents down to 20nA and run modes as low as 30μA/MHz, while maintaining a maximum operating frequency of 32MHz for computationally intensive tasks. Its hardware-based Charge Time Measurement Unit (CTMU) enables advanced capacitive touch sensing without external components, perfect for modern HMI interfaces in appliances and control panels.
This microcontroller features a comprehensive peripheral set including 12-bit 200ksps ADC with 16 channels, dual comparators with programmable references, and multiple communication interfaces (UART, SPI, I²C). The PIC24FV16KA301-E/SS stands out with its enhanced watchdog timer, software-controlled brown-out reset, and 5x8-bit hardware PWM modules for precise motor control applications. Housed in a 20-pin SSOP package, it offers up to 18 programmable I/O pins with 25mA source/sink capability, supporting mappable peripheral functions that maximize design flexibility. The MCU's industrial temperature rating (-40°C to +85°C) and high noise immunity make it particularly suitable for automotive subsystems, industrial automation, and outdoor electronic equipment where reliability is critical.
