Integrated MCU with RF Transmitter on a Single Chip PIC12F529T48A/T39A, PIC12LF1840T48A/T39A Summary Many wireless applications typically operate in highly constrained environments where the available energy resources are scarce and long battery life is highly desirable. Some of the key considerations when selecting a wireless device are power consumption, form factor and cost. Microchip’s nanoWatt XLP MCU + RF Transmitter is aptly suited for such applications and was designed by Microchip with many of these requirements in mind. This device combines a low power Flash microcontroller with a wireless enabling RF transmitter, into a single 14-pin package. This streamlined packaging helps designers solve both their power consumption and product footprint problems within one feature rich device. Part Name Program Memory Frequency PIC12F529T48A 2.3K 418–868 MHz PIC12LF1840T48A 7.1K 418–868 MHz PIC12F529T39A 2.3K 310–928 MHz PIC12LF1840T39A 7.1K 310–928 MHz The above products are ideal for developing low cost and extremely low power wireless applications such as remote keyless entry (automotive, garage doors), security systems (alarm keypads, access control, wireless security sensors ) or remote monitoring. Designers may also add Microchip’s proprietary, royalty free KeeLoq® code hopping technology, an industry proven technology used worldwide by leading manufacturers, to provide additional security to their applications. The relatively small code size is highly configurable and can easily be scaled to provide secure solutions to various markets.
