Key Features

  • nanoWatt XLP technology enables deep-sleep current under 50 nA for long-life battery-powered applications
  • 7 KB flash program memory with in-circuit serial programming (ICSP) for field firmware updates
  • Operates from 1.8 V at 16 MHz, supporting direct interfacing with low-voltage sensors and RF modules
  • Integrated ADC and timer modules in 28-pin SOIC-28 package for cost-effective embedded sensor designs

Applications

PIC16LF723A-I/SO targets ultra-low-power sensor nodes, battery-operated remote controls, and smart appliance controllers where the nanoWatt XLP sleep modes extend cell lifetime beyond 5 years. Its 1.8 V operation at 16 MHz makes it compatible with low-power RF transceivers and energy-harvesting power supplies in wireless IoT designs. The 28-pin SOIC package provides sufficient I/O for multi-sensor data logging, keypad scanning, and peripheral control in industrial and consumer embedded systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

How low is the sleep current of PIC16LF723A-I/SO with nanoWatt XLP technology enabled?

With nanoWatt XLP (eXtreme Low Power) technology, PIC16LF723A-I/SO achieves sleep current as low as 20 nA to 50 nA at 1.8 V supply. This means a 230 mAh CR2032 coin cell can sustain the MCU in sleep mode for over 500 years theoretically, making it ideal for infrequently-polled sensors and smoke detectors that rarely wake.

What is the maximum operating frequency of PIC16LF723A-I/SO, and how does the 1.8 V supply constrain clock speed?

PIC16LF723A-I/SO operates up to 20 MHz at the full VDD range and runs at 16 MHz when the supply is as low as 1.8 V. At 20 MHz, the MCU executes 5 million instructions per second (MIPS), sufficient for servo control, UART communication at 115200 baud, and ADC data averaging tasks in a 28-pin SOIC footprint.

What ADC resolution does PIC16LF723A-I/SO provide, and how many analog input channels are available?

PIC16LF723A-I/SO includes a 10-bit ADC with up to 11 input channels multiplexed across available GPIO pins. The 10-bit resolution provides 1024 discrete levels, giving approximately 1.76 mV resolution at 1.8 V reference, suitable for temperature sensors, light sensors, and resistive transducer reading in low-power data loggers.

Is PIC16LF723A-I/SO a drop-in alternative to PIC16F723A, and what distinguishes the LF variant?

PIC16LF723A-I/SO is pin-compatible with PIC16F723A and differs primarily in its lower minimum operating voltage of 1.8 V versus 2 V for the standard F variant, plus the nanoWatt XLP sleep mode. The LF variant is selected when designs require operation from single lithium primary cells at end-of-discharge voltage below 2.5 V or from energy harvesting below 2 V.
