What are the key features of PIC16F636-I/SL?

  • 8-bit PIC16 CPU core running up to 20 MHz with 3.5 KB Flash and 128 bytes EEPROM for compact embedded control
  • Operates from as low as 2 V supply voltage at 4 MHz, enabling low-power and battery-powered designs
  • 14-pin SOIC package with integrated comparator and internal oscillator, minimizing external component count

What is PIC16F636-I/SL used for?

The PIC16F636-I/SL is well-suited for low-power consumer appliances, home automation control modules, and industrial sensor interfaces where compact code size and minimal BOM cost are priorities. Its 2 V minimum supply operation makes it ideal for battery-operated remote controls and wearable devices. The integrated comparator and internal oscillator allow designers to reduce external components in space-constrained PCB layouts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum clock frequency supported by PIC16F636-I/SL, and how does supply voltage affect it?

The PIC16F636-I/SL supports a maximum clock frequency of 20 MHz at full supply voltage. At a reduced supply of 2 V, the device can operate at up to 4 MHz, making it suitable for low-power battery designs without sacrificing core functionality.

How much program memory and data retention storage does the PIC16F636-I/SL provide for embedded firmware?

The PIC16F636-I/SL provides 3.5 KB of Flash program memory and 128 bytes of EEPROM data storage. These capacities accommodate small to medium embedded applications, with EEPROM enabling non-volatile storage of configuration parameters and calibration values across power cycles.

In which battery-powered or space-constrained designs does the PIC16F636-I/SL 14-pin SOIC package offer a clear advantage?

The 14-pin SOIC package of the PIC16F636-I/SL is ideal for compact PCB layouts in remote controls, wireless sensor nodes, and portable metering devices. Its small footprint combined with an integrated internal oscillator and comparator reduces the total component count, saving board space and lowering BOM cost in high-volume production.

When would an engineer choose PIC16F636-I/SL over a larger PIC16F device with more I/O pins?

Engineers choose the PIC16F636-I/SL when the application requires 8 or fewer I/O pins, a supply voltage as low as 2 V, and a minimal BOM. For designs with 14-pin constraints and code sizes under 3.5 KB of Flash, this device delivers the necessary peripherals — including a comparator and 128-byte EEPROM — at lower cost and in a smaller package than higher-pin-count alternatives.
