PIC16C77T-04/PQ - 8-Bit 4MHz 14KB OTP MCU 44-MQFP | Microchip
The Microchip Technology PIC16C77T-04/PQ is an 8-bit CMOS microcontroller from the PIC16CXX mid-range family, delivering 4 MHz CPU performance with 14 KB (8K x 14) of One-Time-Programmable (OTP) program memory in a 44-pin MQFP (10x10) tape-and-reel package. According to the verified distributor data, the device integrates 368 bytes of RAM, 22 digital I/O lines, a 12-channel 8-bit A/D converter, and hardware peripherals including I2C (SSP), SPI, and USART communication interfaces for embedded control.
A microcontroller (MCU) is a single-chip computer that integrates a CPU core, program memory, working RAM, and peripheral interfaces such as timers, ADC, and communication buses. Within the broader taxonomy, the PIC16C77 belongs to the mid-range 8-bit microcontroller category (8-bit MCU -> microcontroller -> embedded processor -> semiconductor IC). The PIC16CXX mid-range architecture uses a 14-bit instruction word set optimized for deterministic, single-cycle execution on most instructions, supporting fully-static operation that allows the clock to be stopped without losing state.
Key features of the PIC16C77T-04/PQ include a 4 MHz maximum operating frequency, 8-bit data path, 14 KB OTP program memory, integrated 12-channel 8-bit A/D converter, two 8-bit timers and one 16-bit timer, capture/compare/PWM modules, a synchronous serial port supporting both SPI and I2C, an asynchronous USART, and a wide 4.0 V to 5.5 V supply voltage range. The /04 speed suffix indicates the 4 MHz maximum clock; the /PQ suffix designates the 44-pin Metric Quad Flat Pack (MQFP) surface-mount package supplied on tape and reel.
The PIC16C77 architecture employs a Harvard-style design with separate program and data buses, allowing instruction fetch and data access to occur in the same cycle. The OTP memory supports one-time field programming via standard device programmers, while the 8-bit A/D converter provides fast analog signal acquisition for sensor and control applications. The integrated peripherals reduce external component count, making the part well suited for compact, cost-sensitive embedded designs.
Typical applications for the PIC16C77T-04/PQ include industrial process control, instrumentation, motor control, sensor signal conditioning, HVAC controllers, security and alarm panels, automotive body electronics, and general-purpose embedded control where moderate analog input count and serial communication are required. The combination of OTP memory and a robust peripheral set makes the device an effective choice for production-volume designs.
When designing with this part, ensure that the OTP programming step is finalized before final PCB assembly because OTP cannot be erased or rewritten. Add a 100 nF decoupling capacitor adjacent to each VDD/VSS pair, place a low-ESR bulk capacitor on the supply rail, and respect the in-circuit serial programming (ICSP) pin assignments if firmware is to be programmed after PCB assembly.
