PIC16LF1718-I/ML - 8-Bit 32MHz XLP MCU 28KB Flash | Microchip
The Microchip Technology PIC16LF1718-I/ML is an 8-bit PIC microcontroller in the PIC16F/LF171x family with 28KB Flash, 2KB RAM and a 32MHz internal oscillator, supplied in a 28-pin QFN (6x6 mm) package designated ML. It combines Intelligent Analog peripherals such as on-chip operational amplifiers, a 10-bit ADC with computation, Core Independent Peripherals (CLC, COG, NCO, Zero Cross Detect) and Peripheral Pin Select for flexible I/O mapping, while the eXtreme Low Power (XLP) architecture targets battery-friendly designs. The LF voltage range operates down to 1.8V, making the part a candidate for portable, sensor and energy-harvesting products where quiescent current and analog integration matter.
A microcontroller (MCU) is a single-chip computer that integrates a CPU, non-volatile program memory (typically Flash), working RAM, and configurable peripherals such as ADC, timers, communication interfaces and I/O. The 8-bit class trades raw clock speed for deterministic behavior, low cost and very low active/standby power, and PIC microcontrollers use a RISC-based Harvard architecture that executes most instructions in one clock cycle. Within Microchip's portfolio, the PIC16F171x family sits in the mid-range (PIC16) tier with enhanced analog and CIP blocks, positioned between baseline PIC10/12/16F and the PIC18/dsPIC performance lines.
Key features include 28KB (16K x 14 words) Flash, 2KB RAM, 256B EEPROM, 10-bit ADC, two on-chip op amps, two comparators, a 10-bit DAC, up to 28 I/O pins, Peripheral Pin Select, and CIP blocks (CLC, COG, NCO, ZCD). The QFN-28 package exposes the exposed thermal pad (EP) as an additional low-impedance ground and thermal path. The LF silicon supports 1.8V-3.6V operation versus 2.3V-5.5V for the F variant, which is the most important differentiator between PIC16LF1718 and PIC16F1718.
Architecturally, the device uses a RISC core with a 14-bit instruction word and a separate data bus, an internal 32MHz oscillator, and an integrated 10-bit ADC with computation capabilities such as averaging, threshold detection and burst averaging. The on-chip op amps are trimmed and routed through Peripheral Pin Select, enabling closed-loop analog front ends without external amplifiers.
Typical applications include low-power IoT sensor nodes, battery-powered medical and wearable devices, automotive body and lighting control, industrial sensor conditioning, consumer appliances, and mixed-signal front-end signal conditioning for actuators and sensors. The 28-QFN footprint suits compact PCBs where routing density matters more than hand-prototyping convenience.
When designing with this device, plan analog pin assignments carefully because on-chip op amps, ADC channels and Peripheral Pin Select share pins. Keep the exposed pad soldered to a continuous ground pour for thermal dissipation and ground integrity, and respect the LF voltage range (1.8V-3.6V) when migrating from F-silicon designs.
