PIC17C42A-33/PQ 概要
Background knowledge - what is an 8-bit OTP microcontroller? An 8-bit MCU (microcontroller) is a single-chip computer with an 8-bit data path, integrating CPU, RAM, ROM/Flash/OTP program memory, and peripherals. OTP (One-Time-Programmable) program memory uses fusible-link or anti-fuse cells that can be written exactly once after manufacture - cheaper than Flash for low-to-medium volume production and ideal for stable, mature firmware. Within the broader taxonomy, the PIC17C42A belongs to: 8-bit MCU -> RISC microcontroller -> Harvard-architecture MCU -> PIC17C family -> CMOS OTP class, and is the predecessor family that influenced the modern PIC18F architecture.
Key features include 121 ns instruction cycle at 33 MHz (8.25 MIPS throughput), 4 KB OTP program memory, 232 x 8 RAM, 33 I/O lines, an external-oscillator interface, a USART serial port, and an 8-bit parallel slave port. The PIC17C42A (Rev. A) conforms functionally to the PIC17C4X preliminary datasheet (DS30412C). Microchip officially notes that a newer device is available - the PIC18F4220 - for new designs; the PIC17C42A remains in stock at franchised distributors but is recommended primarily for legacy maintenance and existing designs.
Technical depth: the PIC17C42A uses a 16-bit-wide instruction word stored in OTP, with a Harvard bus that lets the CPU fetch an instruction and read a data byte in the same cycle. The 58 single-word instruction set keeps code density high. The wide 40- or 44-pin package and 33 I/O lines make the part suitable for applications that need many parallel digital signals without an external bus expander.
Typical applications include industrial control boards, motor control front-ends, instrument front panels, embedded serial-control nodes, and legacy PIC16C5X/PIC12CXXX/PIC16CXX upgrades that need more I/O. This page synthesizes distributor pricing, drop-in alternatives, and design notes that the legacy datasheet alone does not compile.

主な用途
PIC17C42A-33/PQ の用途: 6 件s: Industrial Control Boards, Stepper Motor and PWM Front-End, Instrument Front-Panel Controllers, Legacy Embedded Serial-Control Nodes, PIC16C5X/PIC12CXXX Firmware Upgrades, Security Keypad and Access Modules.
Industrial Control Boards
The PIC17C42A-33/PQ fits industrial control boards because it combines 33 I/O lines with 8.25 MIPS throughput, enough to scan matrix keypads, drive relay arrays, and poll sensors in real time without an external bus expander. At 33 MHz the controller can service a 1 ms control loop with margin to spare for serial diagnostics. Place the MCU near the field connectors to keep digital traces short, and use the USART for a Modbus-style service port. Compared to a modern PIC18F, the OTP memory means firmware must be perfect at production - remote field updates are impossible.
おすすめ
Stepper Motor and PWM Front-End
The PIC17C42A-33/PQ's Capture/Compare/PWM peripherals and 33 MHz clock let it generate the multi-phase step/direction signals needed to drive stepper motor drivers or three-phase PWM for small BLDC fans. The 121 ns instruction cycle means PWM update rates can reach tens of kHz with CPU headroom for closed-loop PI control. Use PORTB for pulse outputs and PORTC for direction/enable signals, leaving the USART free for a tuning interface. Designers should decouple VDD close to the IC and use a Schottky on MCLR for clean resets.
おすすめ
Instrument Front-Panel Controllers
The PIC17C42A-33/PQ is well-matched to instrument front-panel controllers because 33 I/O pins can directly drive 7-segment displays, rotary encoders, and key matrices without a port expander. The 8-bit parallel slave port allows a host CPU (or DSP) to update display memory quickly, while the MCU handles local scanning and key debounce. At 33 MHz the panel scan rate comfortably exceeds 100 Hz to avoid visible flicker. Choose the MQFP-44 package when the panel is small and SMT assembly is preferred over through-hole.
おすすめ
Legacy Embedded Serial-Control Nodes
The PIC17C42A-33/PQ's hardware USART plus 33 MHz throughput make it a capable serial-control node on RS-232/RS-485 buses, handling framed protocols at 115200 baud with CPU cycles to spare for parsing and CRC. The 4 KB OTP holds a slim command interpreter comfortably, and the 232-byte RAM is enough for buffering. Field nodes typically run at 5 V with the MCU between the transceiver and the sensor front-end. For modern designs, prefer a PIC16LF or PIC18F with Flash so firmware bugs can be patched in the field.
おすすめ
PIC16C5X/PIC12CXXX Firmware Upgrades
The PIC17C42A-33/PQ is upwards-compatible with the PIC16C5X, PIC12CXXX, and PIC16CXX instruction families, so it is the natural migration target when those parts run out of I/O or code space. The Harvard bus and similar peripheral model mean existing firmware ports with minor header changes. At 33 MHz the new MCU provides 4-8x the throughput of older 4-10 MHz PIC16C5X parts, allowing more complex control loops on the same PCB. Verify interrupt-vector mapping when porting, because PIC17C42A has a multi-vector interrupt controller.
おすすめ
Security Keypad and Access Modules
The PIC17C42A-33/PQ supports security keypad and access-control modules because it can scan a 4x4 matrix plus drive a relay, buzzer, and Wiegand output all from its 33 I/O pins - no external mux needed. The 4 KB OTP holds a card-format library, and the 33 MHz clock handles Wiegand timing precisely. The OTP memory prevents firmware tampering by an attacker, a security plus. For new designs prefer a PIC18F Flash MCU with secure firmware-update flow, but the PIC17C42A remains viable for mature products with locked firmware.

設計ノート
Place a 100 nF decoupling capacitor as close as possible to each VDD pin and a single 10 uF bulk capacitor at the board supply entry. The PIC17C42A-33/PQ has four VDD pins (11, 21, 31, 41) and four VSS pins (10, 20, 30, 40) - every pair must be decoupled. Switching transients on VDD are a common cause of intermittent resets at 33 MHz; a ferrite bead in series with the supply can help in noisy industrial environments.
Do not confuse the PIC17C42A-33/PQ (44-pin MQFP, OTP) with the PIC17C42A-25/PT (44-pin TQFP, OTP) - the packages have the same pin count but different lead pitches and PCB land patterns. Mixing them will cause soldering defects. Also note that PIC17C42A is OTP, not Flash: firmware bugs cannot be patched in-circuit, so verify code with an emulator and windowed parts before committing to production volumes.
Route the external oscillator traces (OSC1, OSCC2) as short, symmetric differential-style traces with a ground guard ring. Keep digital switching signals away from OSC1/OSC2 to minimize clock jitter. Place the 33 MHz crystal as close as possible to the IC and use a pi-network of load capacitors matched to the crystal's load specification; typical values are 15-33 pF. Estimated: for a 33 MHz fundamental crystal with 20 pF load, use two 30 pF capacitors from each leg to ground.
The PIC17C42A-33/PQ's Parallel Slave Port (PSP) lines PSP0-PSP7 can source/sink significant transient current when switching 8 bits simultaneously. If the PSP connects to a fast host bus, add 33 ohm series resistors near the MCU to dampen reflections. PORTE (RE0/RD, RE1/WR, RE2/CS) should be pulled high through 10 kohm resistors to ensure defined logic levels when the PSP is disabled.
