PIC16F1828T-I/ML

PIC16F1828T-I/ML is Microchip’s 8-bit PIC microcontroller in the PIC16F1 family. It provides an 8‑bit CPU with on‑chip flash, RAM, and EEPROM, plus a rich set of peripherals: analog-to-digital converter, timers, USART (EUSART), and SPI/I2C (MSSP), as well as comparators and configurable I/O. It operates from a supply of 2.0 to 5.5 V and supports industrial temperature range. Features include watchdog timer, low‑power sleep modes, and interrupt capability. Programming is via ICSP, and development is supported by MPLAB X IDE with the XC8 compiler. The suffix -I/ML denotes Industrial temperature grade with a RoHS-compliant lead‑free package, typically in compact packages suitable for space‑constrained designs. Typical applications: small control tasks, sensor interfacing, data logging, and general purpose interfaces in consumer and industrial devices.

There isn’t a direct non-Microchip “equivalent.” The closest cross is within Microchip’s PIC16F182x family with the same package/temperature: PIC16F1823, PIC16F1824, PIC16F1825, and PIC16F1827 (I/ML variants). They share core and peripherals but differ in memory/peripheral options. For an exact cross, use Microchip’s Cross Reference tool or distributor search to match memory, peripherals, and package.
