Microchip has added two new devices to its PIC16C92X family of 8bit one-time-programmable microcontrollers with integrated liquid-crystal display controller.

Microchip has added two new devices to its PIC16C92X family of 8bit one-time-programmable microcontrollers with integrated liquid-crystal display controller By providing an integrated LCD controller, PIC16C92X devices offer enhanced user friendliness and simplified user interfaces

The new PIC16C925 and PIC16C926 offer higher clock speeds of 20MHz and 200ns instruction cycle, 176 to 336byte of RAM and either 4k x 14 or 8k x 14word of one-time-programmable program memory.

Additional features include 60 special function hardware registers, eight level deep hardware stack, interrupt capability, 52 I/O pins, PWM output and synchronous serial port supporting SPI and I2C buses and brown-out detection circuitry.

With five-channels of low-power 10bit A/D convertors, the PIC16C925 and PIC16C926 are ideal for battery-operated applications.

They also offer current PIC16C923 and PIC16C924 users an upward migration path to larger program and data memory, higher clock speeds and higher resolution ADC.

PIC16C92X devices are available in a wide-operating voltage range of 2.5-6.0V with low-power consumption of less than 2.0mA at 5.5V, 4MHz.

The PIC16C92X family is supported by a wide range of development tools, including Microchip's MPLAB In-Circuit Emulator 2000, the MPLAB Integrated Development Environment and the PRO MATE II device programmer.

The PIC16C925 and PIC16C926 are available in 64-pin TQFP and 68-pin PLCC packages.
