This datasheet introduces the core features of PIC16C712 and PIC16C716 microcontrollers, interrupt capability, hardware stack, addressing modes, power management, clock options, package, operating conditions and peripheral functions.
This data sheet provides detailed information on the PIC16C712 and PIC16C716 8‑bit CMOS microcontrollers, covering core features, memory organization, I/O ports, timers, capture/compare/PWM modules, and the 8‑bit analog‑to‑digital converter. It also includes electrical characteristics, packaging options, and revision history.
Key highlights include a high‑performance RISC CPU, up to 7 interrupt sources, selectable oscillator options, low‑power operation (<2 mA @5 V, 4 MHz), and in‑circuit serial programming (ICSP). The document is intended for designers and engineers selecting or using these devices in embedded applications.
