PIC16F77 Microcontroller

PIC16F77 Microcontroller 

The PIC16F77 is an 8-bit microcontroller from Microchip Technology, part of the PIC16F family. It is designed for low-power and cost-effective embedded applications, offering more memory and features than earlier PIC16 devices like the PIC16F84.

It uses Harvard architecture with a RISC instruction set, allowing most instructions to execute in a single clock cycle. The device operates at up to 20 MHz and includes Flash program memory, RAM, and EEPROM, making it suitable for general-purpose embedded applications.
