YINGHUA PIC16F72-I/SO SOP-28 semiconductor

PIC16F72-I/SO SOP-28 microcontroller

The PIC16F72-I/SO is an 8-bit microcontroller in a 28-pin SOP package. It suits engineers and hobbyists building embedded control projects that need integrated analog-to-digital conversion. The device provides core processing with on-chip peripherals for mixed-signal applications. Buyers needing higher pin counts or faster clock speeds should consider other families.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a low-power CMOS microcontroller, it draws minimal current during typical operation at standard supply voltages. Heat output remains negligible in most embedded designs, requiring no active cooling. Acoustic noise is non-existent because the component has no moving parts. Thermal performance depends on the surrounding PCB layout and enclosure.

28-pin SOP package constraint

The SOP-28 surface-mount footprint defines the board layout and assembly process. This package width and pin pitch suit automated reflow soldering but may challenge hand-soldering beginners. Verify that your PCB design matches the 28-lead small-outline dimensions before ordering. The fixed package type cannot be changed for through-hole or smaller SMD variants.
