It is based on a 8-bit RISC architecture and features 10-bit A/D conversion as well as on-chip analog comparator. This microcontroller is capable of executing up to 200k instructions with low power consumption and features an on-chip 64x8 RAM and an 6x8 EEPROM. This makes it well suited for use in embedded applications.

Application Fields

PIC12F675-E/SN microcontrollers have been widely used in a variety of applications due to their low power consumption and wide range of features. Some of the common applications include control panels and displays, automotive systems, robotics and automation, home automation, power electronics, and so on. Various sensors can also be connected to the micro controllers for various tasks.

Working Principles

PIC12F675-E/SN microcontrollers are programmed with assembly language or C language. The microcontroller first reads the input data and stores it in the internal registers. Then, the instruction set is executed and the results are stored in the registers. After that, the output pins are set according to the stored data. Finally, the output pins are lowered again and the cycle continues.

The microcontroller uses two basic kinds of memories - program memory and data memory. The program memory stores the instructions that are used by the microcontroller when it executes instructions and the data memory stores the data that is used by the instructions. The instructions are executed cyclically by the microcontroller, allowing it to control a variety of circuits and devices.

In summary, the PIC12F675-E/SN microcontroller is a low power, cost effective solution for various embedded applications. It can be programmed in either assembly language or C language and contains both program and data memories. Furthermore, its wide range of features make it well suited for applications such as control panels, displays, and more.
