GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The PIC16HV540 from Microchip Technology is a low cost, high-performance, 8-bit, fully-static, EPROM-based CMOS microcontroller. It is pin and software compatible with the PIC16C5X family of devices.

High-Performance RISC CPU:

? Only 33 single word instructions to learn

? All instructions are single cycle (200 ns) except for

program branches which are two-cycle

? Operating speed: DC - 20 MHz clock input

DC - 200 ns instruction cycle

? 12-bit wide instructions

? 8-bit wide data path

? Seven special function hardware registers

? Four-level deep hardware stack

? Direct, indirect and relative addressing modes for

data and instructions

Peripheral Features:
