PIC16LF1787-E/MV - 14KB Flash 8-bit MCU | Microchip XLP | UQFN-40
The Microchip Technology PIC16LF1787-E/MV is a low-power 8-bit PIC microcontroller from the PIC® XLP™ 16F family, integrating 14KB of Flash program memory, 1KB of ROM, 1024 bytes of RAM, and 256 bytes of EEPROM in a 40-pin UQFN (5x5 mm) package with exposed thermal pad. It runs at up to 32 MHz, operates from 1.8V to 3.6V, and combines a 12-bit ADC, 8-bit DAC, op-amp, programmable switch-mode controller (PSMC), and Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) for low-power sensor, motor-control and mixed-signal designs.
An 8-bit microcontroller (MCU) is a programmable processor with an 8-bit data bus and on-chip Flash/ROM/RAM that executes embedded firmware for sensing, control, and human-interface tasks. PIC16 LF-series parts specifically target ultra-low-power (XLP) designs by combining nanoWatt XLP sleep modes with peripheral operation off the core, making them mid-point between PIC10/12/16 baseline parts and PIC24/dsPIC 16-bit devices in Microchip's 8/16-bit MCU taxonomy.
Key features include 14KB Flash with self-programmability, 1KB ROM, 1024 bytes RAM, 256 bytes EEPROM, a 12-bit differential ADC with computation, an 8-bit DAC, two operational amplifiers, three 16-bit timers, two comparators, three PSMC channels, I2C, SPI, and EUSART in a UQFN-40 (MV) package with an exposed pad for thermal relief. The E in the suffix indicates -40C to +125C extended operating temperature.
The architecture is built around the enhanced mid-range 14-bit instruction set with a hardware multiplier and a vectored interrupt controller. The 12-bit ADC with computation (ADCC) automates averaging, oversampling, and threshold comparisons without CPU intervention, which is why it is paired with PSMC blocks for digital lighting and BLDC motor control. CIPs such as CLC, NCO, and SMT continue processing while the CPU is in sleep.
Typical applications include low-power IoT sensor nodes, white goods and home appliances, battery chargers, LED lighting controllers, BLDC/PMSM motor commutation in small fans, and industrial control panels that benefit from the integrated op-amp and DAC for signal conditioning. The wide extended-temperature grade makes it usable in outdoor equipment, thermostats, and automotive under-hood sensor interfaces.
When designing with this device, plan the LDO and decoupling network carefully - use a 100 nF + 1 uF combination near VDD and AVSS, and place the exposed pad on a contiguous ground copper pour to keep junction temperature within limits. If you do not need the op-amp or PSMC peripherals, consider the pin-compatible PIC16LF1786-E/MV (without the Q suffix) for a lower-cost migration within the same silicon family.
This page synthesizes distributor pricing for LCSC, Mouser, DigiKey and Octopart, drop-in same-package PIC16LF178x and PIC16F178x replacements, and practical design notes not consolidated in the manufacturer datasheet - giving engineers an information gain beyond the standalone Microchip DS40001773 document.
