Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum supply voltage for the PIC16LF726-I/SS, and at what clock speed can it run?
The PIC16LF726-I/SS operates from as low as 1.8 V and can still run at 16 MHz at that minimum supply. At higher voltages it supports up to 20 MHz maximum clock frequency, giving designers flexibility to trade off between power consumption and throughput across a wide 1.8 V to 5.5 V supply range.
How much program and data memory does the PIC16LF726-I/SS provide for embedded applications?
The PIC16LF726-I/SS includes 14 KB of flash program memory and 368 bytes of SRAM data memory. This is adequate for firmware implementing sensor polling loops, basic communication protocols such as SPI or I2C, and state machine controllers common in consumer appliances and smart home accessories.
Does the PIC16LF726-I/SS include an ADC, and how many channels are available?
Yes. The PIC16LF726-I/SS integrates an onboard ADC, allowing direct connection of analog sensors to the microcontroller without external converter chips. With 25 total I/O pins available in the 28-pin SSOP package, multiple pins can be configured as ADC inputs to support multi-channel measurements of temperature, light, or pressure at sampling rates typical for 8-bit PIC devices.
For a slim wearable device running from a 2-cell AAA battery, does the PIC16LF726-I/SS fit the requirement?
Yes. Two AAA batteries provide approximately 3 V nominal, well within the 1.8 V to 5.5 V supply range of the PIC16LF726-I/SS. The device can operate at 16 MHz at 1.8 V end-of-discharge, ensuring the product continues functioning even as battery voltage drops below 2 V, extending useful battery life significantly.
