Microchip expands general-purpose 8-bit PIC® microcontroller portfolio


enter 800


icrochip announces the expansion to the PIC16F75X family of 8-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) featuring intelligent analogue and core- independent peripherals, making them ideal for general-purpose applications, as well as power supplies, battery charging, LED lighting, power management and power control/smart energy applications. The new PIC16F753 MCU builds on the success of the popular PIC12F752. The PIC16F753 offers all the key features of the PIC12F752, such as the integrated Complementary Output Generator (COG) peripheral that provides non-

overlapping, complementary waveforms for inputs such as comparators and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) peripherals, while enabling dead-band control, auto shutdown, auto reset, phase control and blanking control. Additionally, the PIC16F753 offers an Op Amp with 3 MHz of Gain Bandwidth Product (GBWP), and a slope compensation circuit to help in Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) applications.


The new also MCU features 3.5 KB of self read-write programme memory, 128B of RAM, an on-chip


10-bit ADC, 9-bit DAC, capture/compare PWM modules, high-performance comparators, and two 50 mA-capable I/Os, enabling engineers to increase overall system capabilities and reduce costs.


With increased intelligent analogue capabilities, the PIC16F753 helps to boost system performance and efficiency while reducing system costs, especially for newer LED-lighting and smart-energy applications. With its numerous on-chip general-purpose and specialised peripherals, including the integrated COG, high-performance comparators and 50 mA outputs for direct FET drive, the PIC16F753 MCU meets the needs of various applications.


The PIC16F753 is available now for sampling in a 16-pin 4 mm x 4 mm QFN package, as well as 14-pin PDIP, SOIC and TSSOP packages. The PIC16F753 is also available in a High Voltage (HV) variant for all packages. Volume production is expected in July.

E Connectivity’s new Power Triple Lock wire- applied connector system is designed to improve reliability among a broad range of power and signal applications. It can now be sourced through TTI Inc, the world’s leading specialist distributor of passive, connector,


T electromechanical and discrete


components. The unique design of the connector system assures connector performance with three locking capabilities including terminal position assurance,


integrated latching mechanism and


connector position assurance. The Power Triple Lock connector system benefits from an extensive family line,


ranging from free hanging and panel mount receptacles to future products such as board mount headers to meet every day design needs. It ensures contacts are fully seated while providing an added measure against contact backout with optional Terminal Position Assurance (TPA).
