PIC16LF726-E/SS - 8-bit 20MHz 14KB Flash MCU | Microchip
The Microchip Technology PIC16LF726-E/SS is an 8-bit PIC microcontroller from the PIC16F family featuring nanoWatt XLP (eXtreme Low Power) technology, 14KB (8K x 14 words) of Flash program memory, 20MHz internal oscillator, and a 1.8V-5.5V wide operating voltage range, all housed in a 28-pin SSOP package. It targets ultra-low-power embedded applications that need substantial on-chip Flash, generous RAM and EEPROM, and rich peripherals including A/D, PWM, I2C, SPI and AUSART.
An 8-bit microcontroller (MCU) is a single-chip computer that integrates a CPU, program memory (Flash/ROM), data memory (RAM), non-volatile storage (EEPROM), and a range of peripherals (timers, communication interfaces, ADC) into one device. Within the embedded hierarchy, this part belongs to: PIC16F family -> PIC16 mid-range core -> 8-bit MCU -> microcontroller -> semiconductor IC. The "LF" prefix indicates the low-voltage, low-power variant; the "E" suffix indicates the extended (-40C to +125C) industrial temperature range; the "/SS" suffix indicates the 28-pin 0.209-inch (5.30mm) Shrink Small Outline Package.
Key features of this device include 14KB Flash program memory, 256 bytes EEPROM data, 768 bytes RAM, a 20MHz internal oscillator (selectable), 11 channels of 8-bit ADC with automatic acquisition, two Capture/Compare/PWM (CCP) modules, AUSART, I2C and SPI peripherals, an 8-bit timer (TMR0), two 16-bit timers (TMR1/TMR2), a Watchdog Timer (WDT), Enhanced Power-On Reset (POR), Brown-Out Reset (BOR), and In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP). nanoWatt XLP technology typically delivers sleep currents in the tens of nanoamperes, making this device attractive for battery-powered IoT nodes.
The PIC16LF726-E/SS is well suited to battery-powered sensors, remote controls, low-power wireless sensor nodes, energy harvesting controllers, capacitive touch (mTouch) interfaces, consumer appliances, and low-end industrial controllers. The wide 1.8V-5.5V range simplifies designs that operate from single-cell Li-ion (3.7V nominal) or 2xAA alkaline cells.
When designing with this part, ensure ICSP programming header pins are accessible, calculate total power budget using PIC datasheet typical sleep current, and verify ADC input impedance vs sampling time for high-impedance sources. Compared to the non-LF PIC16F726 variant, the "LF" device extends low-voltage operation to 1.8V and improves sleep current; the -E grade adds the -40C to +125C industrial range over the standard -I grade.
