PIC16F1713-E/SS Overview
An 8-bit microcontroller is a microprocessor whose data bus, registers, and ALU operate on 8 bits at a time. Within the broader taxonomy, the PIC16F1713 belongs to Microchip's PIC16 mid-range MCU family, which sits between the smaller PIC10/12 baseline family and the higher-performance PIC18 family. Microcontrollers of this class integrate CPU, Flash program memory, RAM, ADC/DAC, timers, and communication peripherals on a single die, replacing many discrete components in embedded designs.
Key features include 4 KB (7 KB total, with 4K x 14 word addressing) of Flash memory, hardware op-amps for signal conditioning, 10-bit ADC with computation, high-speed comparators, PWM/CCP, and multiple communication interfaces including EUSART, I2C, and SPI. The XLP (eXtreme Low Power) technology delivers nanoWatt sleep currents for battery-powered applications. The 28-SSOP package measures 0.209 inches (5.30 mm) in body width.
The PIC16F1713 uses a Harvard architecture RISC core with a 14-bit instruction word, enabling compact code density. Its on-chip op-amps allow analog front-end design without external amplifiers, while the CLC, COG, NCO, and ZCD peripherals implement state machines and waveform generation without CPU intervention, reducing firmware complexity and improving determinism.
Typical applications include sensor signal conditioning with on-chip op-amps, LED driving with hardware PWM, motor control using the Complementary Output Generator (COG), low-power IoT battery nodes, and industrial control with Core Independent Peripherals. The PPS feature allows peripheral I/O mapping to nearly any pin, simplifying PCB routing.
When selecting this part, note the extended temperature grade ('-E') suits industrial and automotive under-hood environments. For -40C to +85C commercial-industrial grade, consider the '-I' variant; for the smaller 28-QFN package, look at PIC16F1713-E/ML or PIC16F1713-E/MV.

Typical Applications
PIC16F1713-E/SS is suitable for 6 applications: Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning, Battery-Powered IoT Sensor Nodes, LED Lighting and PWM Dimming, Automotive Under-Hood Control, Motor Control and Small BLDC Drivers, Consumer Appliance Control Panels.
Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning
The PIC16F1713-E/SS is well suited for industrial sensor signal conditioning because it integrates on-chip operational amplifiers, a 10-bit ADC with computation, and 5/8-bit DACs in a single 28-SSOP package. The on-chip op-amps eliminate external analog front-end ICs for thermocouple, RTD, or bridge-sensor amplification, reducing BOM cost and PCB area. With 32 MHz CPU speed and 7 KB Flash, the MCU handles linearization algorithms and digital filtering. The extended -40C to +125C temperature grade supports factory-floor and outdoor deployments.
Recommended
Battery-Powered IoT Sensor Nodes
The PIC16F1713-E/SS suits wireless IoT sensor nodes thanks to its XLP (eXtreme Low Power) technology with sub-100nA sleep currents and integrated peripherals that operate in low-power modes. The on-chip op-amps condition sensor signals while the CPU sleeps, then wake on interrupt for periodic measurements - extending coin-cell battery life to multi-year operation. The 28-SSOP package supports compact PCB designs. The CLC, COG, NCO, and ZCD peripherals implement hardware state machines without CPU intervention, further reducing average power consumption.
Recommended
LED Lighting and PWM Dimming
The PIC16F1713-E/SS drives LED lighting systems using its CCP/PWM peripherals and the COG (Complementary Output Generator) for high-resolution dimming and dead-band control. The COG generates complementary PWM outputs with programmable dead-time, ideal for driving half-bridge LED driver stages with synchronous rectification. Hardware ZCD (Zero Cross Detect) enables AC line-frequency synchronization for TRIAC dimmer compatibility. The 32 MHz CPU handles DMX or DALI protocol decoding while the PWM peripherals operate autonomously, freeing CPU bandwidth.
Recommended
Automotive Under-Hood Control
The PIC16F1713-E/SS operates reliably in automotive under-hood environments thanks to its extended -40C to +125C temperature range and automotive-grade qualification from Microchip. The 32 MHz CPU, 10-bit ADC, and Core Independent Peripherals handle actuator control, sensor reading, and LIN-bus communication with deterministic real-time response. The on-chip op-amps condition signals from crankshaft, knock, and oxygen sensors. Note: for full AEC-Q100 Grade 0/1 qualification, check the specific Microchip automotive ordering code rather than the standard '-E' temperature suffix.
Recommended
Motor Control and Small BLDC Drivers
The PIC16F1713-E/SS drives small brushless DC (BLDC) and stepper motors using the COG peripheral for hardware-generated complementary PWM with dead-band insertion. The NCO (Numerically Controlled Oscillator) provides fine-frequency control for DCC (digital current control) loops. Hall-sensor or back-EMF inputs are conditioned through the on-chip comparators and op-amps. With 32 MHz CPU speed and 7 KB Flash, the MCU implements sensorless commutation algorithms and current-limiting routines. The 28-SSOP package handles modest thermal dissipation for sub-1A continuous motor currents.
Recommended
Consumer Appliance Control Panels
The PIC16F1713-E/SS fits consumer appliance control panels for washers, dryers, ovens, and HVAC thermostats, where it drives displays, reads capacitive touch buttons, and controls relays or TRIACs. The Peripheral Pin Select (PPS) feature remaps UART, I2C, and SPI to nearly any pin, simplifying PCB layout when routing to connectors and displays. On-chip op-amps and the 10-bit ADC measure temperature, humidity, and pressure sensors without external amplifiers. The Core Independent Peripherals handle debouncing, sequencing, and timing without CPU intervention, keeping firmware lean.

Design Notes
Estimated: typical VDD current at 32 MHz is 5-8 mA; sleep current with peripherals disabled is under 100 nA per Microchip XLP specs. For battery-powered designs, use the SLEEP instruction with WDT disabled and switch off unused peripherals via PMD registers to achieve lowest quiescent current. Enable the RTC from SOSC for timekeeping during sleep. Decouple VDD with 100 nF ceramic + 10 uF bulk placed within 5 mm of the VDD pin (pin 20) and VSS pin (pin 19) to suppress switching transients.
Estimated: place a 100 nF X7R ceramic decoupling capacitor adjacent to VDD (pin 20) and VSS (pin 19), plus a 10 uF tantalum or ceramic bulk capacitor within 10 mm. For analog accuracy, dedicate separate analog and digital ground planes, joined at a single point near the MCU VSS pin. The 28-SSOP 0.65 mm pitch requires 0.30 mm traces with 0.20 mm clearances using 1 oz copper. Avoid running high-frequency digital traces beneath the SSOP body to minimize coupling into analog signals.
When using the on-chip op-amps for sensor signal conditioning, keep analog traces short (under 25 mm) and routed away from PWM, switching regulator, or communication lines. Use guard rings tied to analog ground around high-impedance op-amp input nodes to minimize leakage. The DAC outputs can drive low-impedance loads directly but should be buffered if driving more than 5 kohm-equivalent loads. For ADC accuracy, add a 10 nF capacitor at each analog input pin to limit RF pickup and source impedance.
Do not exceed 5.5 V on VDD or apply voltage to MCLR/RE3 (pin 1) above VDD+0.3 V or below VSS-0.3 V without proper ESD protection. Programming the PPS (Peripheral Pin Select) registers is irreversible until the next POR; verify pin assignments before locking PPS via the WPUE register. The 'E' (Extended) temperature grade is required for +85C to +125C operation - using the '-I' (Industrial) variant above +85C causes permanent device damage. Avoid leaving unused analog pins floating - tie them to VSS or VDD through 10 kohm resistors.
Place the ICSP programming header (RB6/ICSPCLK and RB7/ICSPDAT) on the PCB edge or accessible test point for in-circuit programming and debugging with PICkit or ICD. The MCLR/VPP pin (pin 1) requires a 10 kohm pull-up to VDD plus a 100 nF capacitor to VSS for proper reset behavior - do not omit these. The OSC1/OSC2 pins (9, 10) need a guard ring around the crystal traces and the load capacitors (typically 15-33 pF) placed within 5 mm of the pins. For high-speed SPI, route clock and data lines as a matched-length pair (delta under 5 mm).
Compliance Information
RoHS and REACH compliant per Microchip product page. AEC-Q100 status requires verification of the specific automotive ordering code; the standard PIC16F1713-E/SS suffix 'E' indicates extended temperature grade but not necessarily full AEC-Q100 qualification - request the automotive-grade ordering code from Microchip for AEC-Q100 applications.
