PIC12F519-I/MC

Microcontrollers Overview

The PIC12F519-I/MC is an 8-bit Flash microcontroller in a DFN-8 package. It features a 1024-word program memory, 41 bytes of SRAM, and 64 bytes of Flash data memory. The device operates at a maximum frequency of 8 MHz using an internal RC oscillator. It supports a wide voltage range from 2.0V to 5.5V and functions within industrial temperature ranges.

Microcontrollers Feature Summary

• Includes a precision internal oscillator with factory calibration for reliable timing without external components.
• Supports In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP) and In-Circuit Debugging (ICD) for efficient development.
• Integrates power management features such as Power-on Reset (POR), Device Reset Timer (DRT), and Watchdog Timer (WDT).
• Provides flexible I/O configuration with multiplexed MCLR input and internal weak pull-ups.

Microcontrollers Applications

• Personal care appliances
• Security systems
• Low-power remote transmitters/receivers

Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'MC' corresponds to the DFN-8 package when ordering. Confirm that the '-I' designation meets your required industrial operating temperature specifications. Ensure compatibility with your programming tools for ICSP functionality. Check for any recent datasheet revisions or errata sheets relevant to this part number before finalizing procurement.

Microcontrollers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low pin count and high performance per dollar. Consider the 8-pin footprint if space is limited. Evaluate the 8 MHz speed against system requirements. Verify that the absence of an ADC does not impact sensor interfacing needs. Assess the 64-byte Flash data memory capacity for runtime data storage requirements.

Microcontrollers Part Context

This device belongs to the PIC12F family of 8-bit microcontrollers. It utilizes Microchip's Low Pin Count architecture, protected by patent. The series is designed for cost-sensitive applications where minimal I/O is sufficient. It shares architectural similarities with other PIC12 devices but offers specific memory and peripheral configurations tailored for compact designs.

Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the PIC12F series with compatible pinouts. Verify memory sizes and peripheral availability in alternative models. Ensure the replacement supports the same packaging options if board space is constrained. Confirm electrical characteristics match the original design requirements.
