PIC16C67-04/PQ - 8-Bit 4MHz 14KB OTP MCU | Microchip
The Microchip Technology PIC16C67-04/PQ is an 8-bit CMOS microcontroller from the PIC16C6x family, delivering 4 MHz CPU performance with 14 KB (8K x 14) of One-Time-Programmable (OTP) EPROM program memory and 368 bytes of RAM, housed in a 44-pin MQFP (10x10 mm) package. It features 33 digital I/O pins, a RISC architecture with only 35 single-word instructions, and a fully static design that supports DC to 4 MHz clock operation. The device is fabricated using low-power, high-speed CMOS EPROM/ROM technology and operates from a wide supply voltage range.
An 8-bit microcontroller (MCU) is a single-chip computer that integrates a CPU, memory (ROM/Flash and RAM), and peripheral interfaces on one die. PIC microcontrollers from Microchip use a Harvard RISC architecture that executes one instruction per clock cycle (except program branches), delivering deterministic throughput for embedded control. Within the power-management and embedded-control hierarchy, MCUs sit above discrete logic and below DSPs/SoCs; the PIC16C6x mid-range family targets cost-sensitive, general-purpose embedded designs where deterministic timing, low power, and ease of programming outweigh raw computational throughput.
Key features of the PIC16C67-04/PQ include low-power consumption of 15 microamps typical at 5V/4 MHz and 1 microamp typical at 3V/32 kHz, a wide operating voltage range up to 6.0V, and commercial, industrial, and extended temperature variants. The 33 I/O pins share peripherals such as timers, a synchronous serial port (SSP) supporting SPI/I2C, a USART, capture/compare/PWM modules, and an 8-bit ADC, making it suitable for mixed-signal embedded products. Power management includes power-on reset, brown-out detection, watchdog timer with on-chip RC oscillator, and code protection.
Architecturally, the PIC16C67-04 uses a 14-bit instruction word with an 8-bit data path, a 13-bit program counter capable of addressing 8K words, and a two-level deep hardware stack. The OTP EPROM cell allows one-time field programming using a standard EPROM programmer; for prototype volume production the windowed JW variant enables UV erasure. This combination of deterministic execution, generous on-chip peripherals, and legacy-compatible tooling explains why the PIC16C67 family remains a baseline reference in many industrial and automotive subsystems designed in the 1990s.
Typical applications include industrial control subsystems, HVAC fan and damper controllers, automotive body electronics (climate, lighting, seat modules), instrumentation front-ends, security panel keypads, and small consumer appliances. Designers also use it for board-level glue logic replacement where 20-30 discrete logic ICs can be consolidated into a single programmed MCU, reducing BOM cost and PCB area.
When designing with the PIC16C67-04/PQ, remember that OTP memory can be programmed only once; for prototyping, use the PIC16C67-04/JW windowed variant or migrate to a Flash-based PIC16F877 in the same 44-pin QFP footprint. The maximum clock rate is 4 MHz for the -04 speed grade; for higher throughput in the same package, use the -10 or -20 speed grades. Always verify OTP programmer socket adapter compatibility for MQFP-44 packages.
