Product details

PIC16LF1718-I/SS — 8-bit MCU for low-power sensor and LIN nodes

The Microchip PIC16LF1718-I/SS is an 8-bit MCU from the PIC® XLP™ 16F series, built around a PIC core running at 32 MHz.

The 28 KB program space (16K x 14 words) is sized for mid-complexity firmware — think sensor fusion algorithms, LIN slave stacks, or PWM-based motor control loops. The 2 KB data RAM limits buffering: you can hold a few hundred sensor readings or a modest command queue, but not a full frame buffer or heavy data logging without external memory.

The XLP (Extreme Low Power) technology keeps sleep-mode current low enough for years of battery life in periodic-wake applications.

The 28-SSOP package (0.209″ body width, 5.30 mm) is a surface-mount footprint common in mixed-signal boards; the 0.65 mm pitch is routable on a two-layer PCB with careful trace spacing.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between PIC16LF1718 and PIC16F1718?

The PIC16LF1718 is the low-voltage variant of the PIC16F1718. The LF version operates down to 1.8 V, while the standard F version typically requires a minimum of 2.0 V or higher. The two are pin-compatible in the same package options, so a board designed for the F variant can accept the LF variant with a firmware change to account for the wider supply range.

What is a compatible replacement for PIC16LF1718-I/SS?

The PIC16LF1559-I/SS is a functional peer in the same PIC® XLP™ 16F family with the same 32 MHz core, 1.8 V supply, and 28-SSOP package, but it has 17 I/O instead of 24 and no DAC. For a drop-in replacement with identical pinout and memory, the PIC16F1718-I/SS (standard voltage) is pin-compatible but requires a 2.0 V minimum supply.
