ATTINY1616-MF

Overview

The ATTINY1616-MF is an 8-bit microcontroller from the tinyAVR 1-series, utilizing the AVR processor core with a hardware multiplier. It features 16 KB of in-system self-programmable Flash memory, 2 KB of SRAM, and 256 bytes of EEPROM. The device operates at clock frequencies up to 20 MHz and supports supply voltages ranging from 1.8 V to 5.5 V. It includes multiple peripherals such as timers, ADCs, DACs, and communication interfaces.

Feature Summary

• Integrates Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) and an Event System for CPU-independent peripheral signaling.
• Supports capacitive touch interfaces via the Peripheral Touch Controller (PTC) with Driven Shield+ technology.
• Features accurate analog capabilities including dual 10-bit ADCs, three 8-bit DACs, and configurable voltage references.
• Provides flexible clock options including internal RC oscillators and external crystal inputs.

Applications

• General-purpose embedded control systems
• Capacitive touch interface applications
• Low-power sensor nodes
• Motor control applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'MF' against official Microchip documentation to confirm package type and temperature range. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts and programming interfaces like UPDI before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model for designs requiring high integration of analog and digital peripherals within a compact footprint. Consider the 20-pin SOIC or VQFN packages available in the series based on pin count requirements and thermal constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the ATtiny1614/1616/1617 family within the tinyAVR 1-series. These devices share common architectural features but differ in pin counts and I/O availability. The 1616 variant typically offers a balance of memory and I/O lines suitable for mid-range applications.

Replacement Considerations

Check for pin-compatible alternatives within the same series, such as the ATtiny1614 or ATtiny1617, depending on required I/O count. Verify that any substitute maintains the necessary Flash size and peripheral set.
