Key Features
- Integrated T39A RFID transponder module for contactless 125 kHz or 134 kHz identification without an external RFID IC
- 8-bit PIC core at 32 MHz with 4 kword Flash and 256-byte RAM for lightweight sensor and identification firmware
- 2.5 V to 3.6 V operating range in a compact 14-pin TSSOP footprint ideal for battery-powered RFID tag designs
Applications
PIC12LF1840T39A-I/ST is optimized for ISO 11784/11785 compliant animal identification tags and access control tokens that require both MCU processing and RFID communication in a single chip. Its low supply voltage of 2.5 V to 3.6 V and minimal active current extend battery life in coin-cell-powered asset tracking and livestock tagging applications. Designers can also use the device for general-purpose 8-bit sensing tasks where the 14-pin TSSOP footprint minimizes board space.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does PIC12LF1840T39A-I/ST include an RFID module, and which frequency does it support for contactless ID?
Yes, PIC12LF1840T39A-I/ST integrates a T39A RFID transponder module supporting ISO 11784/11785 at 125 kHz or 134.2 kHz, enabling low-frequency contactless identification without a separate RFID chip. This makes the device suitable for animal microchipping, access badges, and industrial asset tags where a single-chip solution reduces component count and PCB area.
How much Flash and RAM does PIC12LF1840T39A-I/ST provide, and is 4 kword enough for a typical RFID firmware stack?
The device provides 4 kword (8 kB) of Flash program memory and 256 bytes of SRAM. A minimal RFID transponder firmware stack including data encoding, CRC calculation, and basic I/O handling typically occupies 1-2 kword, leaving 2-3 kword free for application logic such as sensor sampling, ID management, or serial communication at 32 MHz.
Which supply voltage range does PIC12LF1840T39A-I/ST require, and can it run directly from two AA batteries?
PIC12LF1840T39A-I/ST operates from 2.5 V to 3.6 V, which is compatible with two AA batteries in series providing approximately 3 V fresh and dropping to 2.5 V near end-of-life. The LF (low-voltage) designation confirms it is designed for this sub-3.6 V range, and the 14-pin TSSOP package with low active current makes it well suited for portable, battery-powered RFID applications.
