PIC16LF1938-E/SS Обзор
A microcontroller (MCU) is a single-chip computer that integrates a CPU, program memory (Flash/ROM), data memory (RAM), non-volatile data storage (EEPROM), and peripheral interfaces on one die. The PIC16LF1938 falls under the broader hierarchy: microcontroller -> embedded MCU -> 8-bit CMOS MCU -> Flash-based MCU -> low-power XLP family. Its enhanced mid-range core executes most instructions in a single 200ns cycle, delivering approximately 5 MIPS throughput at 32 MHz.
Key features of the PIC16LF1938-E/SS include 28KB (16K x 14) Flash program memory with self-programming capability, 1KB SRAM, 256B EEPROM, integrated LCD driver supporting up to 96 segments with a dedicated charge pump, multiple Enhanced USART, MSSP (SPI/I2C) modules, 11 ADC channels with 10-bit resolution, and ultra-low-power nanoWatt XLP technology with sleep currents in the nanoampere range. The 'LF' prefix indicates the wide-voltage low-power variant, while the 'E' suffix denotes the extended operating temperature range of -40C to +125C.
The PIC16LF1938-E/SS utilizes Microchip's enhanced mid-range 8-bit core built on CMOS process technology with proprietary nanoWatt XLP design techniques. Peripherals include up to 25 general-purpose I/O pins with interrupt-on-change capability, multiple timers (Timer0/1/2 with gate, RTCC), 10-bit ADC with internal voltage reference, and capture/compare/PWM modules. Internal RC oscillators and a 32 kHz secondary oscillator provide flexible clocking while supporting low-power modes such as Sleep, Idle, and Doze.
Typical applications include battery-powered human-machine interface (HMI) panels with segmented LCD displays, low-cost consumer appliances, industrial sensor nodes with LCD readout, thermostat controls, portable medical monitoring devices, and remote control units. The integrated LCD driver eliminates the need for an external display controller, reducing both BOM cost and PCB footprint.
When designing with this MCU, ensure the Flash self-write and EEPROM operations obey the voltage and timing constraints in the datasheet. The LCD charge pump requires external capacitors on the VLCD pins; check the segmented display mux mode to size these capacitors correctly. For low-power designs, leverage the nanoWatt XLP Sleep mode with RTCC wake-up to achieve quiescent currents below 1 microamp.

Заметки по проектированию
Take advantage of the PIC16LF1938-E/SS's nanoWatt XLP technology by routing the device to Sleep mode whenever possible. Use the RTCC (Real-Time Clock Calendar) module with a 32.768 kHz external crystal to wake the MCU at scheduled intervals for sensor reads or LCD updates, achieving average system currents below 5 microamps in battery-powered applications. Ensure the MCLR pin is pulled high through a 10 kohm resistor to VDD to avoid spurious resets that would defeat the low-power duty cycle.
The PIC16LF1938-E/SS operates across -40C to +125C with the -E extended temperature suffix, but the SSOP-28 package (theta_JA approximately 100 C/W on a 4-layer JEDEC test board) has limited heat dissipation. The MCU consumes only a few milliamps at 32 MHz, so self-heating is rarely a concern. However, in enclosed industrial installations above 85C ambient, verify with a thermal probe that the die temperature stays below 125C. The -E suffix guarantees operation up to the rated limit only when the device is properly soldered with adequate ground-copper area.
Place decoupling capacitors (0.1 microfarad ceramic + 10 microfarad bulk) as close to the VDD and VSS pins as possible on every PIC16LF1938-E/SS design. For the LCD driver, mount the charge-pump flying and reservoir capacitors on the VLCD pin as recommended in the datasheet to avoid ripple on the segment drive waveforms. Route the ICSPDAT/ICSPCK lines (RB7/RB6) directly to a 6-pin header for in-circuit programming, and avoid placing other signal traces near the oscillator pins to prevent noise coupling into the system clock.
Do not confuse the PIC16LF1938-E/SS (wide-voltage LF family, 1.8V to 5.5V) with the PIC16F1938-I/SS (standard F family, 4.0V to 5.5V only). The non-LF variant will not operate at 3.3V system rails. When migrating from PIC16F to PIC16LF firmware, verify that all peripheral configuration bits match the LF silicon errata. Also note that the 28-SSOP footprint differs from the 28-SPDIP (PIC16LF1938-E/SP): always check the package code in the MPN before PCB assembly.
When using the PIC16LF1938-E/SS's EUSART at high baud rates (above 115200 bps), use the high-speed baud-rate generator mode and ensure the system clock is derived from the high-frequency internal oscillator (HFINTOSC) or an accurate external crystal. For SPI master mode, keep the SCK traces short and series-terminate if the cable exceeds 50 mm. The MSSP peripheral supports both I2C Standard-mode (100 kHz) and Fast-mode (400 kHz); enable the SMBus levels and slew-rate control for noise-immune industrial I2C buses.
