Device Overview

SummaryThis powerful (200 nanosecond instruction execution) yet easy-to-program (only 35 single word instructions) CMOS FLASH-based 8-bit microcontroller packs Microchip's powerful PIC® architecture into 28-pin package and is upwards compatible with the PIC16C5X, PIC12CXXX and PIC16C7X devices. The PIC16F73 features 5 channels of 8-bit Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter with 2 additional timers, 2 capture/compare/PWM functions and the synchronous serial port can be configured as either 3-wire Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI™) or the 2-wire Inter-Integrated Circuit (I²C™) bus and a Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART). All of these features make it ideal for more advanced level A/D applications in automotive, industrial, appliances and consumer applications.Additional Features2 PWM 10-bit 25mA sink/source per I/O 2 Capture/Compare Parallel Slave PortParametricsNameValueProgram Memory TypeFlashProgram Memory Size (KB)7CPU Speed (MIPS/DMIPS)5SRAM Bytes192Digital Communication Peripherals1-UART, 1-SPI, 1-I2C1-SSP(SPI/I2C)Capture/Compare/PWM Peripherals2 Input Capture, 2 CCP,Timers2 x 8-bit, 1 x 16-bitADC Input5 ch, 8-bitTemperature Range (C)-40 to 125Operating Voltage Range (V)2 to 5.5Pin Count28
