Full-Featured, Low Pin Count Microcontrollers with XLP
Description
PIC16(L)F18324/18344 microcontrollers feature Analog, Core Independent Peripherals and Communication Peripherals, combined with eXtreme Low Power (XLP) for a wide range of general purpose and low-power applications. The Peripheral Pin Select (PPS) functionality enables pin mapping when using the digital peripherals (CLC, CWG, CCP, PWM and communications) to add flexibility to the application design.
