Baseline Architecture
Mid-Range devices feature a 14-bit program word
architecture and are available in 8 to 64-pin packages.
These microcontrollers provide 1.8-5.5V operation, speeds
up to 20 MHz, interrupt handling and an 8-level deep
stack. These devices are available in various peripheral
and memory configurations and feature serial analog and
digital peripherals, such as: SPI, I
converters.
These Mid-Range MCUs are capable of achieving up to
5 MIPS of performance and some of the newer Mid-Range
products also feature nanoWatt XLP , Microchip’s industry
Baseline devices utilize a 12-bit program word architecture
and enable the most cost-effective product solutions. These
MCUs allow engineers to use microcontrollers in applications
where they have never been used before. Baseline PIC MCUs
provide a pricing structure that makes them nearly disposable,
with form factors as small as 2x3 mm they can easily be
implemented into the most space constrained designs.
This microcontroller family includes an internal oscillator, a
comparator, ADC and Data Memory for data-logging, giving
engineers the ability to add smarts in various entry level
applications.

Its low cost and easy implementation can also help
designers to replace multiple discrete components with an
integrated MCU solution, resulting in additional savings in
board space.

leading low power technology. With low sleep and dynamic
current consumption, these MCUs are highly suited for
energy efficient and battery powered applications.
Increased Functionality
Microchip continues to increase functionality and
performance of its products with each successive generation,
providing features that help simplify the design of embedded
control systems. The Mid-Range families share several
features that make designing control architectures for
multi-dimensional, interconnected systems easier.

“Electronic Glue” – Design in a baseline MCU from the
start to accommodate bug fixes and last-minute changes.
Avoid costly, time-consuming silicon revisions or board
changes.
Logic Control – Substitute passive discrete logic functions
such as delays, smart gates, signal conditioning, simple
state machines, encoders/decoders, etc.
Intelligent Disposable Electronics – Highly suitable for
“disposable” applications such as drug or pregnancy
testers, dialysis monitoring (blood sugar) and more.
Waveform Generation – Replace traditional 555 timers,
PWMs, remote control encoders, pulse generation,
programmable frequency source, resistor programmable
oscillators and more.
Mechatronics – Traditional mechanical functions like smart
switches, remote I/Os, LED flashers and other forms of
mechanical timers and switches can be replaced easily
with baseline MCUs.
Enhanced Hardware Serial Communications – It is often
necessary to interface the main MCU with external
memories, digital sensor ICs, display devices or other
controllers in a system. The EUSART and Master SPI/
I
communication protocols.
Advanced Analog Peripherals – Our precision 10-bit ADCs
and dual comparators with S/R Latch mode can replace
costly external ADCs, 555 timers, simple op amps and
other analog function ICs.
Small Form Factors – The 8-pin 3x3 mm DFN, 28-pin
4x4 mm UQFN, 40-pin 5x5 mm UQFN allow designers
to squeeze high levels of performance into space-
constrained applications.
