PIC16F15376 Product Overview
The PIC16F15376 is a 40-pin full-featured 8-bit microcontroller combining 28 KB program Flash, 2 KB SRAM, up to 36 I/O pins and eXtreme Low-Power (XLP) technology.
The family includes analog, Core Independent Peripherals and communication resources for general-purpose and low-power applications. Features such as multiple PWM functions, serial interfaces, a temperature sensor and memory-protection resources support a broad range of embedded products.
This model is best promoted as a mature, flexible control device rather than as a one-feature specialist. Commercial requests should include the complete package and temperature suffix.

Why This Device Attracts Buyer and Engineer Interest
Broad general-purpose capability
The mix of high I/O, PWM, analog and communication features supports many established controller architectures.
Low-power product relevance
XLP positioning makes the device useful for duty-cycled sensing, battery-backed functions and low-standby-power products.
Mature platform demand
Existing designs, evaluation boards and firmware investment can create ongoing sourcing and maintenance inquiries.
Typical Applications
Appliance and consumer control
Supports keys, displays, relays, sensors, motors and multiple communications on a single controller.
Industrial interface boards
High I/O and configurable peripherals suit local-control, signal-routing and monitoring modules.
Lighting and waveform control
PWM, CWG and CLC resources are useful for lighting, drive and timing functions.
Low-power monitoring products
XLP and integrated peripherals can reduce standby current and external components.
Design and Procurement Advantages
• Up to 36 I/O pins for channel-rich designs.
• 28 KB Flash and 2 KB SRAM support general-purpose firmware.
• Multiple PWM and serial interfaces cover broad control needs.
• XLP positioning supports low-power applications.
Package and Ordering-Code Guidance
The base name PIC16F15376 is not a complete purchasing code. Package, temperature grade, qualification level and packing method can change the orderable suffix and commercial availability.
1. Quote the complete manufacturer orderable part number, not only the base device name.
2. Confirm package, temperature grade, packing method and required compliance documentation.
3. For migration projects, verify pin functions, configuration bits, voltage behavior, peripherals and firmware changes.
4. Agree acceptable lot/date-code range and traceability requirements before order confirmation.
Lifecycle and Market Position
Microchip displayed PIC16F15376 as In Production on the review date. It remains relevant to established designs, but new projects should compare it with PIC16F18076 and newer families based on EEPROM, ADC and safety-support needs.
Alternative and Migration Options
Migration note |
• PIC16F18076 for a newer cost-sensitive 40-pin sensor and real-time control option with data EEPROM.
• PIC16F18877 for more Flash, SRAM, EEPROM and safety-oriented peripherals.
• PIC16F15356 for a lower-pin-count related family member.
• PIC16F19197 when an integrated LCD controller is required.
Alternative devices are comparison starting points only. They are not automatically pin-compatible or firmware-compatible. The final choice must be validated against electrical, mechanical, software, safety and regulatory requirements.
Sourcing and Quality Checklist
• Confirm manufacturer, complete ordering code, requested quantity and annual usage.
• Review current product status, PCNs, errata and customer-specific qualification requirements.
• Specify package condition, moisture-sensitivity handling, packing and labeling requirements.
• Request lot/date-code information and traceability documentation appropriate to the transaction.
• Use incoming inspection, programming verification or functional testing proportionate to application risk.
• Avoid approving substitutes solely on price; conduct engineering and quality review first.
Frequently Asked Questions
