PIC24F08KL200-E/ST - 16-Bit 32MHz 8KB Flash MCU | Microchip
MPN: PIC24F08KL200-E/ST ✓ ActivePIC24F08KL200-E/ST Overview
The Microchip Technology PIC24F08KL200 family combines a 16-bit architecture with a small-pin-count footprint and an operating architecture intended to deliver performance suitable for cost-sensitive embedded products. The supplied distributor information identifies the E/ST ordering code as a 14-TSSOP device with 8 KB Flash memory, described as 2.75K x 24 words, and a maximum frequency of 32 MHz. The same family information identifies nanoWatt XLP operation as a defining feature, making the device relevant to portable, battery-operated, and energy-conscious systems where sleep behavior and active current matter.
A 16-bit MCU provides a wider arithmetic and data-processing path than an 8-bit controller while retaining the familiar PIC ecosystem of peripherals, registers, and development workflows. The MSSP peripheral can support either I2C or SPI depending on the product configuration, while CCP modules are useful for capture, compare, PWM, and other timing or control tasks. This combination allows a design to connect sensors, displays, actuators, or serial peripherals without moving to a larger microcontroller package.
The 14-pin TSSOP package is useful when PCB area and component height are constrained. Its exposed lead arrangement supports standard surface-mount assembly and routing through a compact footprint. Because pin-level details are not included in the supplied verified excerpts, engineers should confirm the complete pinout, alternate-function assignments, and recommended decoupling directly in the Microchip PIC24F08KL200 datasheet before final PCB release.
Typical applications for the PIC24F08KL200-E/ST include low-cost consumer devices, portable media accessories, simple medical instruments, compact control modules, security and access products, and battery-powered embedded nodes. The device is especially appropriate when the application needs more control capability than an 8-bit MCU but does not justify a larger pin count or package.
When designing around this MCU, verify the operating voltage, ADC resolution, RAM size, temperature limits, clock configuration, and exact peripheral pin multiplexing against the manufacturer documentation. The E suffix in the verified distributor listing is associated with an automotive temperature-grade description, while the exact grade limits and qualification claims should be confirmed from the official datasheet before production release.
This product page consolidates the verified manufacturer and distributor information for the PIC24F08KL200-E/ST, including package, memory, performance, low-power positioning, and available source links. It is intended to accelerate component selection while clearly separating confirmed facts from information that still requires datasheet confirmation.

Typical Applications
PIC24F08KL200-E/ST is suitable for 6 applications: Portable Consumer Accessories, Battery-Powered Sensor Nodes, Medical Testing and Dispensing, Security and Access Control, Industrial Control Modules, Portable Media and GPS Accessories.
Portable Consumer Accessories
The PIC24F08KL200-E/ST fits compact, cost-sensitive accessories where a 16-bit controller provides more processing capability than an 8-bit MCU without requiring a large package. Its verified 32 MHz maximum frequency supports responsive control logic, while 8 KB of Flash provides space for embedded firmware and peripheral routines. The nanoWatt XLP feature makes the device relevant to battery-operated products that spend much of their operating life in a low-power state. An I2C or SPI sensor can be connected through MSSP, and CCP modules can handle timing, PWM, or capture functions without adding a separate controller. Board-level energy results still depend on the selected clock, sleep configuration, and external circuitry.
Recommended
Battery-Powered Sensor Nodes
PIC24F08KL200-E/ST is a practical match for small sensor nodes because its verified nanoWatt XLP positioning targets low-power embedded operation and its 14-TSSOP package limits board area. The 16-bit architecture and 32 MHz listed maximum frequency provide room for sampling logic, local filtering, and communication handling, while MSSP permits I2C or SPI connectivity to common sensors. CCP channels can support measurement timing or low-rate actuator control. A designer should still compare the device with lower-cost 8-bit controllers if the workload is simple, because extra processing capability may not justify its larger program-memory footprint or more complex software ecosystem.
Recommended
Medical Testing and Dispensing
The PIC24F08KL200-E/ST suits compact medical testing, dispensing, or monitoring equipment where cost control and low power are important but the product does not require a large high-end MCU. The 16-bit PIC24F core can support control sequencing, measurement handling, and user-interface updates at up to 32 MHz, while 8 KB of Flash provides room for a focused application program. MSSP supports serial sensor connections, and CCP supports precise timing or motor-related control functions. Medical designs must independently validate accuracy, safety, regulatory fit, and electrical limits; the verified sources establish the MCU identity but do not establish medical certification for the finished product.
Recommended
Security and Access Control
PIC24F08KL200-E/ST can serve as the controller in compact access-control, keypad, intercom, or alarm modules where multiple inputs and outputs must be handled in a small footprint. The 14-TSSOP package provides 14 pins for a focused design, and the 16-bit architecture running at up to 32 MHz is suitable for keypad scanning, credential handling, status logic, and communications. MSSP can connect to an external secure element or serial peripheral through I2C or SPI, while CCP can measure or generate timing signals. Security strength comes from the complete firmware and system design, not from the MCU MPN alone; cryptographic requirements should be reviewed separately.
Recommended
Industrial Control Modules
PIC24F08KL200-E/ST fits compact industrial control modules where deterministic embedded logic, serial sensor connectivity, and low board cost matter. Its 16-bit architecture and verified 32 MHz maximum frequency can handle control sequences, communications, and timing tasks, while MSSP and CCP provide hardware functions for common industrial interfaces. The 14-TSSOP package is useful in space-constrained control boards, although operating-temperature requirements must be checked carefully against the E automotive-grade designation. If an industrial system specifically calls for an industrial-grade part suffix, PIC24F08KL200-I/ST is the closer verified same-family ordering option.
Recommended
Portable Media and GPS Accessories
The PIC24F08KL200-E/ST is appropriate for portable media accessories and compact GPS-related products identified in the verified Microchip family sells sheet. Its low-power PIC24F architecture helps address battery-life constraints, and the 16-bit processing path at up to 32 MHz provides useful capability for user input, display updates, sensor fusion, and serial communication. MSSP can connect to flash storage, motion sensors, or display peripherals through I2C or SPI, while the 14-TSSOP package supports compact portable-product layouts. The MCU is best suited to accessory and secondary-control roles; applications requiring intensive graphics, large data storage, or complex navigation processing will require a more capable device.

Key Differentiators
- Automotive-oriented temperature designation (vs PIC24F08KL200-I/ST)
- 16-bit processing in a 14-pin package (vs ATMEGA88A-MU)
- Integrated serial and timing peripherals (vs ATMEGA328P-MNR)
Design Notes
Use the manufacturer power-supply recommendations from the PIC24F08KL200 datasheet to size VDD decoupling and bulk capacitance. Place the closest high-frequency ceramic capacitor at the appropriate supply pins and retain the recommended bulk capacitor near the device. Because the supplied excerpts confirm nanoWatt XLP but do not provide detailed current-versus-frequency data, validate active and sleep current in the final clock, peripheral, and load configuration rather than estimating from the 32 MHz headline frequency alone.
Route oscillator, programming, reset, and decoupling connections with short, clean traces according to the official 14-TSSOP pinout and layout guidance. The verified excerpts do not include individual pin assignments, so do not begin layout from an inferred diagram. Confirm programming and debug requirements, alternate-function multiplexing, and exposed ground requirements in the Microchip documentation. A compact TSSOP footprint also requires careful paste, solder, and inspection planning for lead pitch and bridging risk.
Do not treat the E/ST and I/ST ordering codes as interchangeable without checking the exact temperature range and qualification requirements. The E/ST part is described as automotive grade in the verified listing, while PIC24F08KL200-I/ST uses the industrial designation. Also avoid assuming that a package match guarantees firmware equivalence: review startup code, interrupt vectors, oscillator settings, peripheral pin mappings, and any errata before using an alternative ordering code in an approved production design.
For MSSP I2C or SPI links, follow the Microchip recommended pull-up, routing, and grounding practice for the selected bus speed. Keep serial traces short, route them away from noisy switching nodes, and provide a quiet return path. The CCP input channels should also be checked for timer accuracy, input filtering, and pin-selection constraints. Exact rise-time, capacitance, and timing limits must be taken from the manufacturer datasheet because they are not included in the supplied verified excerpts.
Compliance Information
The verified Vyrian result describes the E/ST ordering code as automotive grade, but no explicit RoHS, REACH, AEC-Q100, lead-free, halogen-free, or conflict-minerals statements were supplied. Compliance status therefore remains unknown pending review of the current Microchip product documentation.
