Technical specifications manual for 8/14-Pin, 8-Bit Flash Microcontroller released by Microchip Technology Inc., including information on product features, usage instructions, application scenarios, etc.
The PIC12F510 and PIC16F506 are low‑cost, high‑performance 8‑bit flash microcontrollers from Microchip. They use a RISC architecture with 33 single‑word instructions and offer a range of oscillator options, watchdog timer, power‑on reset, and code‑protection features.
Key specifications include up to 20 MHz operation, a wide 2.0 V‑5.5 V supply range, industrial and extended temperature ratings, low operating current (<350 µA at 2 V, 4 MHz), and 100 nA standby current. The devices provide 1024‑word flash program memory, up to 67 bytes data memory, and integrated peripherals such as ADC, comparators, and timers.
