Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '-E/ML' corresponds to the Extended temperature range (-40°C to +125°C) and QFN-20 package as documented in the official datasheet. Confirm that the 'E' designation aligns with the required environmental specifications for your application before finalizing procurement.

Microcontrollers Selection Notes

Select this component when 14 KB of program memory and 18 general-purpose I/O pins are required within a compact QFN-20 footprint. It is suitable for designs needing high pin flexibility via PPS and integrated analog features like the 10-bit ADCC and 8-bit DAC. Ensure the operating environment falls within the extended industrial temperature limits supported by the '-E' grade.

Microcontrollers Part Context

This device belongs to the PIC16F180 family of full-featured 8-bit microcontrollers. The family offers memory configurations ranging from 3.5 KB to 28 KB and supports packages from 8 to 44 pins. The PIC16F18045 specifically targets applications requiring a balance of processing power, analog capabilities, and peripheral connectivity in a small form factor.

Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

The PIC16F18044 shares identical memory and peripheral specifications but offers 18 I/O pins in different package options. The PIC16F18025 provides similar features with 12 I/O pins. Verify pin compatibility and package dimensions when substituting with other members of the PIC16F180xx series.
