PIC16F628A-I/SO Integrated cir PIC16F628A-I/SO Integrated circuit, CPU 2K FLASH E

1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PIC16F627A/628A/648A are 18-Pin Flash-based
members of the versatile PIC16CXX family of low cost,
high performance, CMOS, fully-static, 8-bit
microcontrollers.
All PICmicro® microcontrollers employ an advanced
RISC architecture. The PIC16F627A/628A/648A have
enhanced core features, eight-level deep stack, and
multiple internal and external interrupt sources. The
separate instruction and data buses of the Harvard
architecture allow a 14-bit wide instruction word with
the separate 8-bit wide data. The two-stage instruction
pipeline allows all instructions to execute in a singlecycle,
except for program branches (which require two
cycles). A total of 35 instructions (reduced instruction
set) are available, complemented by a large register
set.
PIC16F627A/628A/648A microcontrollers typically
achieve a 2:1 code compression and a 4:1 speed
improvement over other 8-bit microcontrollers in their
class.
PIC16F627A/628A/648A devices have integrated
features to reduce external components, thus reducing
system cost, enhancing system reliability and reducing
power consumption.
The PIC16F627A/628A/648A has 8 oscillator configurations.
The single-pin RC oscillator provides a low cost
solution. The LP oscillator minimizes power consumption,
XT is a standard crystal, and INTOSC is a selfcontained
precision two-speed internal oscillator. The
HS is for High-Speed crystals. The EC mode is for an
external clock source.
The Sleep (Power-down) mode offers power savings.
Users can wake-up the chip from Sleep through
several external interrupts, internal interrupts and
Resets.
A highly reliable Watchdog Timer with its own on-chip
RC oscillator provides protection against software lockup.
Table 1-1 shows the features of the PIC16F627A/
628A/648A mid-range microcontroller families.
A simplified block diagram of the PIC16F627A/628A/
648A is shown in Figure 3-1.
The PIC16F627A/628A/648A series fits in applications
ranging from battery chargers to low power remote
sensors. The Flash technology makes customizing
application programs (detection levels, pulse generation,
timers, etc.) extremely fast and convenient. The
small footprint packages makes this microcontroller
series ideal for all applications with space limitations.
Low cost, low power, high performance, ease of use
and I/O flexibility make the PIC16F627A/628A/648A
very versatile.
1.1 Development Support
The PIC16F627A/628A/648A family is supported by a
full-featured macro assembler, a software simulator, an
in-circuit emulator, a low cost in-circuit debugger, a low
cost development programmer and a full-featured
programmer. A Third Party “C” compiler support tool is
also available.

DEVICE VARIETIES
A variety of frequency ranges and packaging options
are available. Depending on application and production
requirements, the proper device option can be selected
using the information in the PIC16F627A/628A/648A
Product Identification System, at the end of this data
sheet. When placing orders, please use this page of
the data sheet to specify the correct part number.
2.1 Flash Devices
Flash devices can be erased and re-programmed
electrically. This allows the same device to be used for
prototype development, pilot programs and production.
A further advantage of the electrically erasable Flash is
that it can be erased and reprogrammed in-circuit, or by
device programmers, such as Microchip's
PICSTART® Plus, or PRO MATE® II programmers.
2.2 Quick-Turnaround-Production
(QTP) Devices
Microchip offers a QTP Programming Service for
factory production orders. This service is made
available for users who chose not to program a medium
to high quantity of units and whose code patterns have
stabilized. The devices are standard Flash devices but
with all program locations and configuration options
already programmed by the factory. Certain code and
prototype verification procedures apply before
production shipments are available. Please contact
your Microchip Technology sales office for more
details.
2.3 Serialized Quick-Turnaround-
Production (SQTPSM) Devices
Microchip offers a unique programming service where
a few user-defined locations in each device are
programmed with different serial numbers. The serial
numbers may be random, pseudo-random or
sequential.
Serial programming allows each device to have a
unique number, which can serve as an entry-code,
password or ID number.
