PIC16F1936T-I/ML

The PIC16F1936T-I/ML is Microchip’s mid‑range 8‑bit microcontroller in the PIC16F193x family. It targets general‑purpose embedded control with industrial temperature support and RoHS lead‑free packaging (I/ML). Key points:
- 8‑bit PIC core with standard instruction set and efficient performance for small‑ to mid‑scale projects.
- On‑chip memory: flash program memory, RAM, and EEPROM (sizes vary by device variant).
- Peripherals: ADC (10‑bit typical), comparators, timers, PWM/Capture/Compare, and serial interfaces (USART/UART, SPI, I2C).
- Power and reliability: multiple low‑power modes, watchdog timer, wakeup on events, and brown‑out protection.
- I/O and interrupts: flexible I/O with interrupt capability for responsive designs.
- Packaging and tooling: available in multiple packages; supported by Microchip tools (MPLAB X, XC8, MCC) for development and programming.
Applications include sensing, basic motor control, consumer and automation devices, and other small embedded systems. For exact memory sizes, pin count, oscillator options, and peripheral counts, consult the latest datasheet and family reference.
