Key Features
- Low-voltage 8-bit PIC16 core operating from 1.8 V minimum supply at 16 MHz for battery-powered and energy-harvesting embedded designs
- 2048 x 14-word self-programmable Flash and integrated ADC in a 28-pin SPDIP through-hole package ideal for prototyping and breadboard-friendly development
- 20 MHz maximum clock with PIC16 enhanced instruction set, UART, SPI, and I2C peripherals for flexible sensor and communication interfaces
Applications
The PIC16LF722-I/SP is well suited for low-voltage battery-operated consumer devices, educational prototyping platforms, and industrial sensor nodes requiring a simple 8-bit controller with ADC input and serial communication. Its 1.8 V minimum operating voltage enables direct use with single-cell lithium-ion polymer or two-cell NiMH battery packs without a boost converter. The 28-pin SPDIP package simplifies breadboard development and through-hole PCB assembly for low-volume production.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum supply voltage for PIC16LF722-I/SP and what battery configurations does this enable?
The PIC16LF722-I/SP operates from a minimum supply voltage of 1.8 V at 16 MHz. This enables direct operation from two NiMH cells in series (approximately 2.0 V to 2.8 V), a single lithium-ion cell at end-of-discharge (3.0 V down to 2.5 V with LDO), or energy-harvesting circuits supplying as little as 1.8 V, making it ideal for long-life battery instruments.
How much Flash program memory does PIC16LF722-I/SP have and is it sufficient for typical embedded applications?
The PIC16LF722-I/SP provides 2048 x 14-word Flash, equivalent to approximately 3.5 KB of program storage. This is sufficient for straightforward sensor reading, PWM motor control, serial communication protocols like I2C or SPI, and simple state machines. For applications requiring more complex algorithms or larger lookup tables, moving to the PIC16LF1827 or PIC16F18875 with 8 KB or more Flash would be appropriate.
What package does PIC16LF722-I/SP use and how does it benefit prototyping?
The PIC16LF722-I/SP is housed in a 28-pin SPDIP (through-hole DIP) package with 2.54 mm lead pitch. This standard through-hole format fits directly into breadboards and DIP sockets, making it the easiest format for rapid prototyping, academic lab exercises, and small-batch hand-soldered PCBs without SMD assembly equipment.
Does PIC16LF722-I/SP include an ADC, and how many channels are available for sensor inputs?
Yes, the PIC16LF722-I/SP includes an integrated ADC module. The PIC16LF722 provides up to 11 analog input channels accessible on the 28-pin SPDIP package, with 10-bit resolution. This allows direct connection of multiple analog sensors such as temperature sensors, potentiometers, light sensors, and current-sensing resistors without external ADC chips.
