PIC16C62B-04I/SS - 4MHz 8-Bit OTP MCU, 3.5KB | Microchip
The Microchip Technology PIC16C62B-04I/SS is an 8-bit RISC CMOS microcontroller from the PIC16C6xx mid-range family, delivering 4 MHz CPU performance with 3.5 KB (2K x 14) One-Time-Programmable (OTP) program memory, 128 bytes of RAM, and 22 digital I/O pins in a 28-pin SSOP (5.30 mm) package. Its Harvard architecture, 35 single-word instructions, and 14-bit instruction width enable compact, deterministic firmware execution suited to cost-sensitive embedded control. The '04' speed suffix denotes a 4 MHz oscillator / instruction cycle, while the 'I' industrial temperature grade supports -40C to +85C operation.
A PIC microcontroller (Programmable Interrupt Controller, though in Microchip's usage it stands for Peripheral Interface Controller) is a compact, single-chip computer integrating a CPU core, non-volatile program memory, volatile RAM, and configurable peripherals such as timers, comparators, capture/compare/PWM modules, and serial I/O. Within the broader taxonomy, the PIC16C62B sits in the hierarchy: microcontroller -> embedded MCU -> 8-bit RISC MCU -> mid-range PIC16 family -> CMOS OTP variant. The 16C-series OTP parts are one-time-programmable, distinct from the flash-based 16F-series that dominate new designs, making the 16C62B useful for legacy industrial systems, secure applications where firmware must not be field-updateable, and cost-optimised production runs.
Key features include two 8-bit timers (Timer0, Timer2) plus one 16-bit Timer1, a 5-channel 8-bit A/D converter (PIC16C62B variant specific), a USART/SCI module for asynchronous and synchronous serial, an SSP module for SPI/I2C, a watchdog timer with on-chip RC oscillator, brown-out reset, and power-on reset. The device operates across 2.5V to 6.0V (typical 5V) with low-power sleep current. Three I/O ports (PORTA 6 pins, PORTB 8 pins, PORTC 8 pins) provide flexible digital interfacing.
Architecturally, the PIC16C62B uses a Harvard RISC core with separate program and data buses, a 14-bit-wide instruction path, and a hardware stack eight levels deep. The OTP EPROM cell is windowless on plastic SSOP, ensuring firmware cannot be read back optically, a security feature for legacy industrial controls. The CMOS process yields low quiescent current, with sleep currents below 1 microB typical.
Typical applications include industrial motor control (small DC and stepper drives), appliance controllers (washing machines, microwave ovens), security and access control panels, smart sensor signal conditioning with on-chip ADC, automotive body electronics (pre-CAN legacy modules), and instrumentation front-ends where deterministic timing matters. Designers also deploy the PIC16C62B in safety-critical legacy systems because OTP firmware is immune to bit-flip induced corruption.
When designing with the PIC16C62B-04I/SS, ensure the programming firmware is fully validated before mask/OTP commit because OTP parts cannot be re-programmed. Use MPLAB development environment with ICD or PM3 programmer. For new designs consider flash-based PIC16F628 or PIC16F88 equivalents, but for legacy system replacement the C62B remains a drop-in solution.
