PIC16CE624T-20E/SO

Microcontrollers Overview

The PIC16CE624T-20E/SO is an 8-bit microcontroller from the PIC16(L)CE62x family, manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features a PIC16 core with 1.75 KB of OTP program memory and 96 bytes of RAM. The device operates at a maximum clock frequency of 20 MHz within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 5.5 V. It includes 13 I/O lines, 128 bytes of EEPROM data memory, and eight timers/counters. Housed in an 18-SOIC package, it supports surface mount installation and functions across a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Microcontrollers Feature Summary

• Integrates 1.75 KB of one-time programmable (OTP) flash memory for code storage.
• Includes 128 bytes of electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) for non-volatile data retention.
• Equipped with eight timer/counter peripherals for precise timing control.
• Supports surface-mount technology via an 18-pin SOIC package.

Microcontrollers Applications

• Embedded systems requiring low pin count and simple control logic
• Industrial monitoring devices with limited I/O requirements
• Consumer electronics utilizing 8-bit processing architectures

Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Microchip distributors or certified suppliers. Confirm the specific suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging suitable for automated assembly. Ensure the 'E' suffix matches the required extended industrial temperature range specifications for your design environment.

Microcontrollers Selection Notes

Select this model when designing for cost-sensitive applications needing moderate code capacity without ADC functionality. Compare against the PIC16CE625 variant if larger program memory is required. Consider the PIC16C622 series if EPROM technology or higher clock speeds are necessary for the target application.

Microcontrollers Part Context

This component belongs to the PIC16CE62x series, representing an evolution of the legacy PIC16C62x architecture. It maintains compatibility with standard PIC instruction sets while offering modern packaging options. The series targets applications previously served by older EPROM-based controllers but now requiring OTP flexibility.

Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the PIC16CE624-20E/SO for tube packaging or the PIC16CE625T-20E/SO for increased memory capacity. Verify pinout compatibility before replacing legacy PIC16C622 parts, as peripheral configurations may differ slightly between generations.
