The PIC16F range of Microcontrollers from Microchip are 8-bit MCUs that incorporate Microchip s PIC(R) architecture into a variety of pin and package options, from space efficient 14-pin devices to feature-rich 64-pin devices
Devices with Baseline, Mid-Range or Enhanced Mid-Range architecture are available with numerous different peripheral combinations, giving designers flexibility and choice for their applications
The PIC16F1454/1455/1459 family of microcontrollers is based upon Microchip s enhanced mid-range core with a 16 level deep hardware stack and 49 instructions
These MCUs provide up to 12 MIPS, 14 Kbytes program memory with data memory of 1024 bytes RAM
On board is a configurable oscillator with ±0.25% accuracy
