PIC17C42A-16/L 概述
A microcontroller (MCU) is a single-chip computer that integrates a CPU core, program memory, RAM, peripherals, and I/O on one silicon die. PIC microcontrollers from Microchip use a RISC-based Harvard architecture where separate program and data buses allow simultaneous instruction fetch and operand access. The PIC17C family sits above the PIC16C line in performance, offering higher MIPS, larger address spaces, and richer peripherals, while remaining code-compatible with the PIC16C5X, PIC12CXXX, and PIC16CXX instruction-set families.
Key features of the PIC17C42A include 8.25 MIPS throughput (121 ns instruction cycle), 232 bytes of general-purpose RAM, 33 digital I/O lines, a hardware USART for serial communication, two 8-bit timers plus two 16-bit timers, and a programmable prescaler. The 16 MHz maximum oscillator yields 8.25 MIPS - among the fastest 8-bit PIC devices in production at its introduction. The OTP program memory supports in-circuit programming via Microchip's standard tools, while the EPROM-based die allows prototype reprogramming through a windowed package variant.
Architecturally, the PIC17C42A uses a 16-bit-wide instruction word and an 8-bit data path, with a 64 KB linear program address space and 16-level hardware stack. The USART can operate in asynchronous, synchronous master, and synchronous slave modes, supporting standard baud rates up to 625 kbaud at 16 MHz. Brown-out reset, watchdog timer, and power-on reset are integrated.
Typical applications include industrial control, instrumentation, motor control front-ends, sensor signal conditioning, embedded communication bridges, and legacy 8-bit upgrades where PIC16C code must scale up without re-architecting. The wide temperature grade (-40C to +85C commercial) also supports white goods and consumer electronics.
When designing with this part, verify that your C compiler or assembler targets the PIC17C instruction set; not all PIC tools support PIC17. The 44-PLCC package is through-hole or socket-mountable, simplifying prototypes and field replacement.

典型应用
PIC17C42A-16/L 适用于 6 应用s: Industrial Control Systems, Embedded Instrumentation, Motor Control Front-End, Legacy Communication Bridges, Consumer Appliance Control, Sensor Signal Conditioning Hubs.
Industrial Control Systems
The PIC17C42A-16/L's 16 MHz clock delivering 8.25 MIPS and 33 I/O pins makes it well-suited for industrial control logic where deterministic loop times matter. With 4 KB of OTP program memory and 232 B of RAM, the part fits typical PLC sub-modules, sensor hubs, and discrete I/O expanders running scan loops under 5 ms. The 44-PLCC package is socket-compatible for easy field replacement, and the integrated USART handles RS-232/RS-485 bridge duties when paired with a transceiver. Designers should budget OTP write cycles during development; for production volumes migrate to PIC18F4220 with flash.
推荐
Embedded Instrumentation
For digital panel meters, data loggers, and bench instruments, the PIC17C42A-16/L's 8.25 MIPS instruction rate and hardware USART let one chip handle keypad scanning, LCD drive, and serial upload simultaneously. The 16-bit instruction word keeps code compact in OTP, fitting typical instrument firmware under 4 KB. The 33 I/O pins easily serve a 4x4 keypad plus 8-digit LCD multiplex plus a UART. Brown-out reset and watchdog timer protect against brown-outs in wall-powered test gear. Pair with a low-dropout regulator (e.g. MCP1700) and a precision ADC for measurement front-ends.
推荐
Motor Control Front-End
At 8.25 MIPS the PIC17C42A-16/L can generate PWM at carrier frequencies above 20 kHz for small brushed DC or stepper motor front-ends, well above the audible band. The two 16-bit timers capture quadrature encoder inputs for closed-loop velocity control, while the two 8-bit timers drive PWM channels. With 33 I/O, the MCU can directly interface H-bridge drivers and current-sense amplifiers without external logic. The 44-PLCC package and -40C to +70C commercial range suit appliance-grade motor control where OTP memory locks the production firmware against field tampering.
推荐
Legacy Communication Bridges
Bridging RS-232 to RS-485, or UART to SPI peripherals, is a classic use of the PIC17C42A-16/L's hardware USART and 33 I/O. At 16 MHz the USART can sustain 625 kbaud cleanly, enough for industrial fieldbus gateway duty. The 4 KB OTP holds typical translation firmware (command parser, address filter, echo buffer) comfortably. Designers appreciate the 44-PLCC socket compatibility for service-friendly field deployments. For new designs migrating to active parts, PIC18F4220 with multiple EUSARTs simplifies multi-protocol gateway code.
推荐
Consumer Appliance Control
White-goods and consumer appliances commonly used PIC17C42A-16/L for washers, dishwashers, and HVAC controls where deterministic 16 MHz timing manages relays, sensors, and user interfaces. The commercial 0C to +70C range covers indoor appliances; for outdoor use, the PIC17C42A-16I/L industrial variant is the drop-in. OTP memory locks production firmware, preventing aftermarket tampering with safety-critical code. 232 B of RAM comfortably buffers keypad debouncing, display refresh, and a state machine for cycle control.
推荐
Sensor Signal Conditioning Hubs
The PIC17C42A-16/L's 33 I/O pins and 16 MHz throughput make it a practical hub for aggregating multiple low-speed sensors (temperature, humidity, contact closures) into one UART stream. With 4 KB of OTP, designers can implement calibration tables, linearization, and Modbus RTU framing without external memory. The USART plus timer-driven bit-banging gives flexibility for 1-Wire, I2C (via software), or SPI sensor polling. Industrial users appreciate the wide MCU ecosystem and 44-PLCC socket-friendly form factor for service contracts.

设计说明
PIC17C42A-16/L operates from a single 5V supply. Decouple VDD with a 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed within 5 mm of the VDD/VSS pins (pins 38/37), plus a bulk 10 uF tantalum or aluminum electrolytic on the same rail. The PIC17C4X family has switching transients inside the core; insufficient decoupling will manifest as erratic code execution or intermittent brown-out resets. Connect MCLR/VPP (pin 36) to VDD through a 10 kohm resistor and add a 100 nF cap to ground if the reset line is long or noisy. [DATA_NEEDED: exact Vdd min/max for the -16 speed grade - verify against DS30412D]
The 44-PLCC (J-Lead) package has standard 1.27 mm pitch with J-leads wrapping under the package body. For prototypes, use a PLCC socket (e.g. 3M 8444-11B1) so chips can be swapped without rework; this is especially important given the OTP nature of PIC17C42A - any firmware bug requires a new part. Place the oscillator crystal (or resonator) within 10 mm of OSC1/OSC2 (pins 34/35) and route the traces symmetrically to minimize stray capacitance. If using an external clock source, drive only OSC1 and leave OSC2 unconnected per datasheet.
PIC17C42A is an OTP (One-Time-Programmable) part - once programmed, the firmware cannot be changed. Do NOT use OTP parts for development prototypes; instead use a PIC17C42A-16/JW windowed EPROM variant (Microchip /JW suffix) for iteration, then transfer the validated firmware to the /L OTP part for production. Also note: not all PIC compilers and programmers support PIC17C - verify your toolchain (MPLAB XC8 supports PIC17C; some third-party tools do not). The part is in NRND status; new designs should migrate to PIC18F4220 to avoid supply uncertainty.
Route the USART lines (RC6/TX and RC7/RX, pins 22/23) as short, impedance-controlled traces if running above 100 kbaud. For RS-232 connections, place the transceiver (e.g. MAX232) adjacent to the MCU and keep the high-voltage driver outputs away from analog traces. The PORTD pins (24-31) form an 8-bit parallel port useful for external memory or PSP; if unused, leave them as outputs driven low to minimize current. Place a guard ring or ground fill around analog-capable pins RA0-RA5 (pins 2-7) when used for ADC-style sensing to reduce digital crosstalk.
