PIC16F684-I/P 8-Bit Flash Microcontroller with ECCP and 10-Bit ADC DIP-14 (PIC16F684-I/P DIP IC)
The PIC16F684-I/P is a high-performance, 8-bit Flash-based microcontroller from Microchip's mid-range family, offering an advanced feature set in a compact 14-pin package. It features a powerful RISC architecture with 35 single-word instructions. This IC includes 3.5KB of Flash program memory, 128 bytes of SRAM, and 256 bytes of high-endurance EEPROM. Key highlights include an 8-channel 10-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC), two analog comparators, and an Enhanced Capture/Compare/PWM (ECCP) module with half-bridge and full-bridge support. With its software-selectable internal oscillator (up to 8MHz) and NanoWatt technology, it is an exceptionally efficient choice for power-sensitive motor control and analog sensing applications.
This IC is primarily used in small brushless DC (BLDC) motor controllers, automotive sensors, and portable power tools. It is a highly versatile component for Arduino electronics projects in India for building DIY H-bridge motor drivers, advanced sensor data loggers, and smart LED lighting controllers that require high-resolution PWM and analog sensing in a small 14-pin DIP footprint.
