The DFPIC165X is a low-cost, high-performance, 8-bit, fully static soft IP Core, dedicated to operating with fast memory (typically on-chip). The core is designed with a special concern for low power consumption. It is software compatible with PIC16C54, PIC16C55, PIC16C56, PIC16C57, and PIC16C58 industry standards, containing modified RISC architecture that is 2 times faster than the original implementation. It features separate instruction and data buses allowing a 12-bit wide instruction word, with a separate 8-bit wide data path. The DFPIC165X typically achieves a 2:1 code compression and an 8:1 speed improvement over other 8-bit microcontrollers in its class. The Core has 24 I/O lines, an 8-bit timer/counter with an 8-bit programmable Prescaler, and power-down SLEEP mode. It's ideal for high-speed automotive, low-power remote transmitters/receivers, and telecom processors. It supports a proprietary Hardware Debug System called DoCD™ for real-time, non-intrusive debugging.
