The PIC® Microcontrollers (MCU) are a series of 8-bit, fully static, Flash-cased CMOS microcontrollers with high-performance rates, and employ RISC architecture with only 33 single-word/single-cycle instructions. These devices have characteristics of flexible intelligence like pin and code compatibilities across families, innovative integration such as configurable logic cells and numerically controlled oscillators, and eXtreme low power with sleep currents as low as 20nA and active currents down to 35 uA/MHz.
