PICs are microcontrollers made by Microchip, Inc. PIC microcontrollers are used mostly in embedded control applications. Microchip offers hundreds of different PIC devices from tiny 6 pin packages up to 121 pin devices. The PIC line is offered in several families, based on an 8 -bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit core processor with various sets of peripheral and interface hardware on the chip. Each PIC has a processor, program memory, data memory, on board clock circuitry, timers and inputs and outputs.

Depending on the device chosen, the memory, operating speed and I/O capacity will vary. Additional functions may include A-D converters, serial ports, USB ports, external memory access, pulse width modulation, Ethernet ports, comparators, voltage references and more.

Because of the small instruction set and free assembler, PIC programmers often use assembly language to write programming. Although some higher-level language tools are available, languages like C are difficult to implement on some PIC devices because of hardware limitations, like a small fixed stack memory.

A vast amount of application and technical data is offered by Microchip. See the website at the link below.
