This data sheet introduces the features of the PIC16C62X series of microcontrollers, including high-performance RISC CPU, 13 I/O pins, two analog comparators, 8-bit timer/counter, power management, etc.
The PIC16C62X family consists of EPROM‑based 8‑bit CMOS microcontrollers with a reduced 35‑instruction set, single‑cycle execution, and a Harvard architecture. Devices are offered in 18‑pin DIP, SOIC, and SSOP packages and support a range of oscillator options, power‑saving modes, and on‑chip peripherals such as comparators, voltage reference, and an 8‑bit Timer0.
Key features include up to 2 K words of program memory, 13 I/O pins with individual direction control, 8‑level deep hardware stack, and built‑in power‑on reset, brown‑out reset, watchdog timer, and programmable code protection. The datasheet details electrical specifications, packaging information, and ordering guidance for both UV‑erasable and OTP devices.

The PIC16C62X family operates from 2.5 V to 6.0 V, with some variants limited to 5.5 V.
Each device provides 13 I/O pins with individual direction control.
The microcontroller includes an 8‑bit Timer0 with an 8‑bit programmable prescaler.
Four oscillator options are available: single‑pin RC, LP (low‑power), XT (standard crystal), and HS (high‑speed crystal).
