Key Features

  • 8-bit PIC16 core with 2048x12-word Flash, running up to 20 MHz for versatile embedded control
  • Low-voltage operation from 2 V minimum supply at 4 MHz enables battery-powered and energy-harvesting designs
  • 28-pin SPDIP through-hole package simplifies breadboard prototyping and hand-soldered production builds

Applications

The PIC16F57-I/SP is widely used in low-cost embedded control systems such as home appliance controllers, industrial timers, and educational development boards where through-hole assembly simplifies prototyping. Its 2V minimum supply voltage makes it attractive for battery-powered sensors and simple data acquisition nodes. Engineers also deploy it in legacy designs that require an established 8-bit PIC architecture with straightforward firmware migration paths.

Frequently Asked Questions

At what clock frequency and supply voltage does the PIC16F57-I/SP operate in low-power scenarios?

The PIC16F57-I/SP runs at up to 20 MHz from a standard 5 V supply, and can operate from as low as 2 V minimum at 4 MHz, making it suitable for battery-powered sensors and energy-harvesting applications that demand reduced standby current consumption.

How much program memory does the PIC16F57-I/SP provide, and how does that limit firmware complexity?

The device provides 2048 x 12-word Flash program memory, equivalent to approximately 3 KB of instruction storage. This capacity is sufficient for simple state machines, PWM control loops, UART communication handlers, and sensor linearization routines typically found in cost-constrained embedded products.

Why would a hardware engineer choose the 28-pin SPDIP package over a surface-mount alternative for the PIC16F57?

The SPDIP-28 through-hole package allows direct insertion into standard 0.1-inch breadboards and DIP sockets, reducing prototyping time and enabling easy device swapping during development. It also suits low-volume hand-soldered production runs where SMT reflow equipment is unavailable or cost-prohibitive.

Does the PIC16F57-I/SP include an analog-to-digital converter for sensor interfacing?

No, the PIC16F57-I/SP does not include an integrated ADC. Designs requiring analog input must pair it with an external ADC such as the MCP3208 over SPI. However, its 20 digital I/O lines and 20 MHz clock provide ample bandwidth for bit-bang SPI or I2C communication with external converters.
