Microchip has integrated a dual op amp into its 8-bit PIC microcontrollers. The PIC16F527 and PIC16F570 microcontrollers are designed with on-chip dual op amp module, 8-bit ADC and two comparators.

Microchip Technology Inc. announced two new 8-bit PIC® microcontrollers—the PIC16F527 and PIC16F570, which combine the ease-of-use of a PIC MCU with low-cost analog peripherals to create a ...

Distributor Mouser Electronics is shipping the new PIC32CM PL10 low-power Arm Cortex-M0+ based microcontrollers (MCUs) from ...

Voltage comparators began appearing in single-chip microcontrollers (MCUs) in the late 1990s. At the time, the change was viewed as a simple cost reduction. Comparators required less silicon, while ...

There was a time when microprocessors were slow and expensive devices that needed piles of support chips to run, so engineers came up with ingenious tricks using extra hardware preprocessing inputs to ...

In the maker world, it’s the Arduino and ESP32 lines that get the lion’s share of attention. However, you can do fantastic things with PIC chips, too, if you put the dev time in—it’s just perhaps less ...

The PIC12(L)F157X family of three 16-bit pulse-width modulators (PWMs) offer precision drive capability in a small form factor, says developer Microchip. The PWMs, which come in 8-pin packages, ...
