32 MHz 8-bit PIC with 14 KB Flash — mid-range control MCU
This part is aimed at industrial control, sensor interfacing, motor control, and general-purpose embedded applications where the 8-bit architecture keeps BOM cost low and code portability across the PIC16F range is a known quantity.
For a spare-parts storeroom or production buyer, this means the part is still in normal factory supply and suitable for new-design qualification without a forced migration path. The ROHS3 compliance covers EU regulatory requirements for current and foreseeable builds.
40-QFN (5x5 mm) — compact footprint with thermal pad
The 35 available I/O come from the 40-pin count minus power and ground pins.
At 3.3 V the 32 MHz core runs with zero wait states on Flash access for most instructions; the internal oscillator is trimmed to ±1% accuracy typical, so many designs skip the external crystal entirely. The 1.8 V floor allows battery-powered operation down to two alkaline cells or a single Li-ion cell near end-of-discharge.
The 85°C ceiling is the standard industrial maximum; if the application sees sustained junction temperatures above that, a higher-temperature-grade PIC variant would be needed.
