Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum clock frequency of the PIC16F1788-E/ML and how does voltage affect performance?

The PIC16F1788-E/ML runs up to 32 MHz at full supply voltage, and it also operates at 16 MHz when powered from as low as 2.3V. This dual-speed capability allows designers to balance processing throughput against power consumption in battery-operated or energy-harvesting applications, giving 8-bit RISC performance across a range of supply conditions.

How much non-volatile memory does PIC16F1788-E/ML provide for program and data storage?

It provides 28KB of Flash program memory, 2KB of RAM for runtime data, and 256B of EEPROM for persistent parameter storage. This combination supports moderately complex firmware with calibration data retention across power cycles, suitable for sensor nodes and industrial control units that require reliable non-volatile storage without external memory devices.

Which PCB form factor does PIC16F1788-E/ML use, and what does that mean for board area?

The PIC16F1788-E/ML uses a VQFN-28 Quad Flat No-Lead package with 28 pins, which delivers a very small PCB footprint compared to leaded DIP or SOIC alternatives. The exposed thermal pad also improves heat dissipation. This package is well-suited for densely populated boards where every square millimeter of board area matters.

Can PIC16F1788-E/ML replace PIC16F1784 in an existing design?

PIC16F1788-E/ML offers 28KB Flash versus 8KB in the PIC16F1784, sharing the same PIC16 CPU family architecture and compatible peripheral sets including ADC and DAC channels. Designers migrating from PIC16F1784 can reuse most firmware with minor memory map adjustments, making the PIC16F1788-E/ML a higher-density drop-in upgrade without major hardware redesign effort.
