Microchip has released a 12-member PIC18F87J11 high-performance 8-bit microcontroller family, offering greater performance (up to 12 MIPS at 48 MHz), enhanced peripherals and lower standby power consumption.
The new family includes nanoWatt technology for low power consumption in sleep mode (as low as 100 nA) making it well-suited for battery-powered applications.
These devices will also be the first Microchip 8-bit microcontrollers to offer the Parallel Master Port for connection to external devices. Other key features of the PIC18F87J11 family are: 8 to 128 KB of self-programmable Flash (up to 10k erase-write cycles); program execution up to 12 MIPS at 3 V; 3 V operation with 5 V tolerant digital I/O; 8 MHz internal oscillator (and 4x PLL) for up to 32 MHz internal operation; up to two SPI/I²C ports and two UARTS for serial communications; and up to five PWM outputs.
Example applications for the new devices include white goods, TCP/IP interfaces, security-system panels and keypads, server power-supply and temperature controllers, and data logging. The new products are offered in 64- or 80-pin TQFP package options.
