PIC16F872
1.0 DEVICE OVERVIEW
This document contains device specific information
about the PIC16F872 microcontroller. Additional infor-
mation may be found in the PICmicro™ Mid-Range
Reference Manual (DS33023), which may be obtained
from your local Microchip Sales Representative or
downloaded from the Microchip website. The Refer-
ence Manual should be considered a complementary
document to this data sheet, and is highly recom-
mended reading for a better understanding of the
device architecture and operation of the peripheral
modules.
The block diagram of the PIC16F872 architecture is
shown in Figure 1-1. A pinout description is provided in
Table 1-2.
