PIC16F72 Datasheet, PDF (7/136 Pages) Microchip Technology – 28-Pin, 8-Bit CMOS FLASH MCU with A/D Converter
PIC16F72
1.0 DEVICE OVERVIEW
This document contains device specific information for
the operation of the PIC16F72 device. Additional infor-
mation may be found in the PICmicro™ Mid-Range
MCU Reference Manual (DS33023), which may be
downloaded from the Microchip website. The Refer-
ence Manual should be considered a complementary
document to this data sheet, and is highly recom-
mended reading for a better understanding of the
device architecture and operation of the peripheral
modules.
The PIC16F72 belongs to the Mid-Range family of the
PICmicro devices. A block diagram of the device is
shown in Figure 1-1.
The program memory contains 2K words, which trans-
late to 2048 instructions, since each 14-bit program
memory word is the same width as each device
instruction. The data memory (RAM) contains 128 bytes.
There are 22 I/O pins that are user configurable on a
pin-to-pin basis. Some pins are multiplexed with other
device functions. These functions include:
• External interrupt
• Change on PORTB interrupt
• Timer0 clock input
• Timer1 clock/oscillator
• Capture/Compare/PWM
• A/D converter
• SPI/I2C
Table 1-1 details the pinout of the device with
descriptions and details for each pin.
