Claimed to be the lowest-cost member of the PIC18F88X family yet, Microchip Technologies' new PIC16F882 provides design engineers with a lower-cost migration option, it says. The PIC16F882, along with the other four members of the PIC16F88X family, are pin- and code-compatible with other 28/40-pin PIC microcontrollers - offering a wide range of migration options, whilst providing a host of new features. The PIC16F88X enhancements include dual internal oscillators with clock switching and fail-safe clock mode; up to 14 ADC channels; an advanced dual comparator module featuring a Set/Reset Latch; and low-power enhancements that extend battery life. The PIC16F88X family is supported by the full suite of Microchip's development tools. The PIC16F882/3/6 come in 28-pin PDIP, SOIC, SSOP and QFN packages, while the PIC16F884/7 are available in 40-pin PDIP, and 44-pin QFN and TQFP package options.
