The PIC16F177x family of Microcontrollers are peripheral rich MCUs based upon Microchip’s Enhanced Mid-Range Core designed for a variety of functions, in particular SMPS applications. These devices offer the capability of connecting the on-board peripherals internally to create closed loop systems without the need to use pins or any additional PCB area.
