The IC component PIC16C73A-04/SP is a microcontroller manufactured by Microchip Technology. It belongs to the PIC16C series and is designed for embedded control applications.
Key Features:
1. Architecture: The PIC16C73A-04/SP is based on a 8-bit Harvard architecture. It has a Modified Harvard architecture with separate program and data memories, allowing simultaneous access to both program and data memory for improved performance.
2. CPU: It utilizes a high-performance RISC CPU with only 35 single-word instructions. It operates at a maximum clock frequency of 4 MHz, enabling fast execution of instructions.
3. Program Memory: The microcontroller features a 4K x 14 words of Flash program memory. The Flash memory allows for easy program updates and is non-volatile, meaning the stored program is retained even when the power is removed.
4. Data Memory: It has 192 bytes of RAM (Random Access Memory), which provides temporary storage for variables, registers, and other data during program execution. Additionally, it includes 64 bytes of EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) for non-volatile data storage.
5. Integrated Peripherals: The PIC16C73A-04/SP includes various integrated peripherals to facilitate different applications
