Description
The PIC17C4X high end microcontroller family, offered by Microchip, has many features which make it one of the fastest 8-bit microcontrollers in the industry. However one feature which is missing is an on-chip Analog- to-Digital (A/D) converter. This Technical Brief describes how to connect a PIC16C710 to a PIC17C4X through a simple Serial I/O (SIO) 3 line interface. The result is a quick method by which a user can get a fast (approx. 17 kHz transfer rate) 4-channel A/D converter.
