What are the key features of PIC24F04KA201-I/SO?

  • 16-bit PIC24 CPU running up to 32 MHz for efficient control processing
  • Operates from 1.8 V minimum supply at 8 MHz with XLP ultra-low-power mode
  • Integrated CTMU (Charge Time Measurement Unit) for capacitive touch and distance sensing
  • 4 KB Flash and onboard ADC for compact sensor applications
  • 20-pin SOIC-20 package for easy SMT placement
  • UART and multiple serial interfaces for connectivity
  • RoHS-compliant lead-free design

What is PIC24F04KA201-I/SO used for?

PIC24F04KA201-I/SO is a strong fit for battery-powered consumer and industrial devices such as capacitive touch panels, portable environmental sensors, and small handheld meters, where its 1.8 V minimum operation and XLP low-power features extend battery life considerably. The CTMU peripheral enables direct capacitive sensing without external touch controller ICs, reducing system cost. It also suits remote monitoring nodes, simple HMI interfaces, and general-purpose 16-bit embedded control in cost-sensitive designs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum supply voltage and operating clock speed for PIC24F04KA201-I/SO in ultra-low-power mode?

PIC24F04KA201-I/SO can operate from a minimum supply of 1.8 V at up to 8 MHz using the XLP low-power technology, enabling extended run time from small battery cells such as CR2032 coin cells or single-cell NiMH packs.

How does the integrated CTMU help reduce bill-of-materials cost in a capacitive touch design?

The CTMU (Charge Time Measurement Unit) on PIC24F04KA201-I/SO directly measures the capacitance on touch electrode pins without requiring a separate touch controller IC, which can save $0.50 to $2.00 per board in component costs while keeping firmware control over sensitivity thresholds.

Which package and how many pins should the PCB designer use for PIC24F04KA201-I/SO?

The device comes in a 20-pin SOIC-20 package on 1.27 mm pitch, which fits standard double-sided SMT assembly and leaves enough I/O lines for a UART port, ADC inputs, and GPIO for a compact embedded design.

When would a designer choose PIC24F04KA201-I/SO over an 8-bit PIC16 MCU for a sensor application?

A designer would choose PIC24F04KA201-I/SO when the application needs the efficiency of a 16-bit data path, a 32 MHz clock for faster signal processing, or the built-in CTMU for capacitive sensing, advantages that 8-bit PIC16 parts typically cannot match within the same power budget.
