PIC16F1937-I/PT Übersicht
An 8-bit microcontroller (MCU) is a small, self-contained computer-on-a-chip that integrates a CPU core, program memory, data RAM, EEPROM, and configurable digital and analog peripherals around a single bus. Within the broader IC hierarchy, the PIC16F1937 sits under the 8-bit MCU family, which is itself a sub-category of microcontrollers, then integrated circuits, and finally semiconductors. nanoWatt XLP technology adds a hierarchy of sleep/idle/doze modes with sub-microamp quiescent draw, extending battery life for always-on edge nodes that need to wake on an interrupt and return to sleep within microseconds.
The differentiating specifications of this part are its 14 KB of self-programmable Flash, 512 bytes of SRAM, 256 bytes of EEPROM, a 10-bit ADC with up to 14 channels, a 5-bit DAC, two 8-bit timers, three 16-bit timers, an enhanced USART, an MSSP supporting both SPI and I2C, and 36 digital I/O pins. It also integrates an LCD driver capable of driving up to 192 segments with on-chip charge pump and programmable bias resistors, eliminating the need for an external voltage booster on static to 1/4 duty multiplexed glass.
Architecturally, the device uses an enhanced mid-range 8-bit Harvard CPU core with a 14-bit instruction word, a hardware stack of 16 levels, and a 32 MHz internal oscillator that delivers 8 MIPS throughput. The internal oscillator is factory calibrated and offers software tunable HFINTOSC steps so that most designs can drop the external crystal, reducing BOM cost and freeing two pins for I/O.
Typical applications include industrial control panels with segment-LCD displays, low-power sensor nodes powered from coin cells or harvested energy, white-goods and appliance user interfaces, handheld meters, and automotive body/comfort sub-assemblies. The combination of integrated segment LCD and nanoWatt XLP makes the part especially attractive wherever a battery-driven user interface must run for months without service.
When designing with this part, place the Vdd decoupling network within 3 mm of the supply pin pair with at least a 100 nF X7R plus a bulk 1 uF ceramic. Always route the ICD header (PGC, PGD, MCLR/Vpp) on every prototype PCB even if production firmware does not use it, otherwise in-circuit debug and field firmware updates become impractical.

Typische Anwendungen
PIC16F1937-I/PT ist geeignet für 7 Anwendungs: Industrial Control Panel with Segment LCD, Battery-Powered Sensor Node, White-Goods and Appliance User Interface, Handheld Meter and Portable Instrument, Automotive Body and Comfort Sub-Assembly, Low-Power IoT Edge Node with Segment UI, Educational and Prototyping MCU Module.
Industrial Control Panel with Segment LCD
The PIC16F1937-I/PT is a strong fit for industrial control panels because its integrated segment-LCD driver supports up to 192 segments with on-chip charge pump, eliminating the external voltage-doubling circuitry that discrete LCD controllers require. Its 14 KB Flash and 512 bytes SRAM are sufficient to drive 4-com multiplexed glass, run keypads, and store setpoint parameters in 256 bytes of EEPROM. The 32 MHz core plus nanoWatt XLP sleep lets the panel poll sensors quickly and return to sub-uA quiescent between user events, extending backup-battery life in panel-mounted designs.
Empfohlen
Battery-Powered Sensor Node
The PIC16F1937-I/PT fits battery-powered sensor nodes because nanoWatt XLP technology pushes sleep current below 1 uA at 3 V, allowing coin-cell powered designs to run for years between battery changes. The 10-bit ADC and 14 input channels are ample for thermistor, photo, and voltage-sensor front-ends, while the EUSART and MSSP support SPI/I2C modules like accelerometers and sub-GHz radios. With 14 KB Flash and 256 bytes of EEPROM, firmware can store calibration constants locally for true field-serviceable nodes.
Empfohlen
White-Goods and Appliance User Interface
The PIC16F1937-I/PT is well-suited to white-goods user interfaces because it integrates the segment-LCD driver, key-scan timers, and mechanical-relay drive timers in a single 44-pin TQFP, replacing two or three discrete ICs. The 5-bit DAC and PWM timers can drive buzzer or triac-control sub-circuits, while 36 digital I/O lines accommodate button matrices and status LEDs. Operating over 2.3 V to 5.5 V tolerates brown-outs in refrigerator and washing-machine supply rails without code-execution glitches.
Empfohlen
Handheld Meter and Portable Instrument
The PIC16F1937-I/PT serves handheld meters well because its 8 MIPS throughput handles sensor conditioning, EUSART to BLE or USB-CDC bridges, and segment-LCD readout updates on a single chip. With 14 KB Flash there is headroom for calibration tables, multi-range measurement modes, and firmware-A/B updates via ICSP. nanoWatt XLP sleep between measurements preserves coin-cell capacity across long deployments in field or clinical instruments.
Empfohlen
Automotive Body and Comfort Sub-Assembly
The PIC16F1937-I/PT is used in body and comfort sub-assemblies such as HVAC head units, mirror adjusters, and seat-control clusters because its nanoWatt XLP sleep and 2.3 V to 5.5 V supply tolerates automotive cranking transients. The segment-LCD driver with on-chip charge pump simplifies instrument-cluster displays, while 36 I/O lines can drive relays and read switch positions. Although the part is industrial-grade (-40C to +85C), it is widely used in non-safety sub-systems; for AEC-Q100 requirements the PIC16F1937 family has automotive-flagged variants per vendor PPAP.
Empfohlen
Low-Power IoT Edge Node with Segment UI
The PIC16F1937-I/PT is an effective low-power IoT edge node because it combines an integrated segment-LCD driver for local status indication with nanoWatt XLP sleep modes that drop current below 1 uA at 3 V. The MSSP (SPI/I2C) and EUSART can front-end a sub-GHz radio or BLE module, while the 10-bit ADC reads analog sensors for environmental monitoring. 14 KB Flash and 256 bytes of EEPROM hold stack-light firmware plus calibration, perfect for always-on edge nodes that must wake on interrupt and report back via radio then sleep again.
Empfohlen
Educational and Prototyping MCU Module
The PIC16F1937-I/PT is a strong educational and prototyping MCU because its 8-bit enhanced mid-range PIC core, abundant peripherals, and 14 KB Flash allow learners to implement real-world projects such as digital thermometers, alarm panels, and simple motor drivers on a single chip. With 36 I/O lines, a 10-bit ADC, segment-LCD driver, and EUSART/MSSP, a single PIC16F1937 board can serve as a teaching platform for analog signal conditioning, communication protocols, and low-power design. The widely adopted MPLAB X IDE ecosystem and ICD support via the PGC/PGD/MCLR pins also makes the part ideal for classroom firmware exercises and hobbyist projects.

Designhinweise
Place the Vdd decoupling network within 3 mm of the supply pin pair (pins 11 and 40). Use one 100 nF X7R ceramic per Vdd pin in parallel with a bulk 1 uF ceramic, with traces kept short and wide. Tie all Vss pins (10 and 39) to a single low-impedance ground plane to minimize digital-noise coupling into the analog inputs. Add a 10 kohm pull-up on MCLR/VPP (pin 5) and a small RC (1 kohm + 100 pF) to ground on the same pin for in-circuit debug protection.
The 44-pin TQFP package has a theta_JA of approximately 45 C/W on a 2-layer 1-oz copper PCB. At the typical PIC16F1937-I/PT operating power of around 30 mW during active MCU execution at 32 MHz and 5 V, junction temperature rise above ambient is approximately 1.4 C, well within the 125 C maximum. Ensure the LCD bias resistors are sized so total LCD charge-pump current does not exceed the part's Vdd budget; for multi-plexed glass designs, derate Vdd voltage to limit charge-pump dissipation.
Always route the ICD header (PGC on RB6/ICSPDAT on RB7 plus MCLR/VPP) on every prototype PCB even if the production firmware does not use it, otherwise in-circuit debug and field firmware updates become impractical. When migrating from PIC16F1937 to PIC16LF1937, do not exceed 3.6 V on Vdd because the LF variant's lower-voltage window reduces ESD margin. Confirm that the segment-LCD charge-pump capacitor on VLCD1/VLCD2/VLCD3 is rated for the programmed bias mode; an undersized capacitor will produce ghosted segments in 1/4 duty glass.
Route the analog ADC inputs on a separate layer with continuous ground shielding and avoid routing digital lines (especially EUSART TX/CK and PWM outputs) parallel to them. The integrated segment LCD pins can drive long traces to the glass, but keep them together and away from sensitive analog sensor lines to avoid capacitive noise coupling. Place a bulk 10 uF + 100 nF ceramic pair on the Vdd pins of any external EUSART or SPI peripheral to ensure clean bus signals during high-current radio bursts.
Compliance-Informationen
RoHS compliant, REACH SVHC compliant, lead-free, and halogen-free per Microchip material declaration as of 2026-10-09. Industrial-grade -I temperature variant is not AEC-Q100 qualified; for AEC-Q100 automotive designs use Microchip's automotive-flagged PIC16F1937 variants or consult PPAP documentation.
