Description
The PIC16F570 device from Microchip Technology is a low-cost, high-performance, 8-bit, fully-static, Flashbased CMOS microcontroller. It employs a RISC architecture with only 36 single-word/single-cycle instructions. All instructions are single cycle except for program branches, which take two cycles. The PIC16F570 device delivers performance an order of magnitude higher than its competitors in the same price category. The 12-bit wide instructions are highly symmetrical, resulting in a typical 2:1 code compression over other 8-bit microcontrollers in its class. The easy-to-use and easy to remember instruction set reduces development time significantly. The PIC16F570 product is equipped with special features that reduce system cost and power requirements. The Power-on Reset (POR), Brown-out Reset (BOR) and Device Reset Timer (DRT) eliminate the need for external Reset circuitry. There are several oscillator configurations to choose from, including INTRC Internal Oscillator mode and the power-saving LP (Low-Power) Oscillator mode. Power-Saving Sleep mode, Watchdog Timer and code protection features improve system cost, power and reliability.
