Frequently Asked Questions
What are the core specs of the PIC17C756A-16/L microcontroller?
The PIC17C756A-16/L is an 8-bit PIC17 family microcontroller running at a maximum clock speed of 16MHz, delivering up to 16 MIPS performance. It includes 32KB (16K x 16) of OTP (one-time programmable) program memory, a 16-bit address bus, and an integrated ADC. It is housed in a 68-pin PLCC package measuring 24.23mm x 24.23mm.
What is OTP memory and why is it used in the PIC17C756A-16/L?
OTP stands for One-Time Programmable memory, which can be programmed once at the factory or by the end user but cannot be erased or reprogrammed. The PIC17C756A-16/L's 32KB OTP Flash makes it ideal for high-volume production applications where firmware is finalized before manufacture, offering a cost-effective alternative to EPROM-based or Flash-based devices in stable, fixed-function designs.
What package does the PIC17C756A-16/L use and how does it mount?
The PIC17C756A-16/L uses a 68-pin PLCC (Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier) package with a 24.23mm x 24.23mm body. PLCC packages mount in through-hole or surface-mount sockets, enabling easy device replacement without soldering. This package style was common in industrial and legacy embedded systems and remains available for design continuity and repair applications.
Is the PIC17C756A-16/L still suitable for new designs?
While the PIC17C756A-16/L was introduced in January 1997 and represents a mature product with a YTEOL (years to end of life) rating of 3, it remains available for legacy system maintenance and production continuity. For new designs, Microchip recommends evaluating newer PIC18 or PIC32 family microcontrollers, which offer more on-chip peripherals, lower power, and reprogrammable Flash memory.
