DEVICE OVERVIEW
This document contains device-specific information for
the following devices:
the following devices:
The PIC24FV16KM204 family introduces many new
analog features to the extreme low-power Microchip
devices. This is a 16-bit microcontroller family with a
broad peripheral feature set and enhanced computa-
tional performance. This family also offers a new
migration option for those high-performance applica-
tions which may be outgrowing their 8-bit platforms, but
do not require the numerical processing power of a
Digital Signal Processor (DSC).

• Doze Mode Operation, when timing-sensitive
applications, such as serial communications,
require the uninterrupted operation of peripherals,
the CPU clock speed can be selectively reduced,
allowing incremental power savings without
missing a beat.

OSCILLATOR OPTIONS AND
FEATURES
FEATURES
The PIC24FV16KM204 family offers five different oscil-
lator options, allowing users a range of choices in
developing application hardware. These include:
• Two Crystal modes using crystals or ceramic
lator options, allowing users a range of choices in
developing application hardware. These include:
• Two Crystal modes using crystals or ceramic
resonators.
• Two External Clock (EC) modes offering the
option of a divide-by-2 clock output.
• Two Fast Internal Oscillators (FRCs), one with a
nominal 8 MHz output and the other with a
nominal 500 kHz output. These outputs can also
be divided under software control to provide clock
speed as low as 31 kHz or 2 kHz.

• A Phase Locked Loop (PLL) frequency multiplier,
available to the external oscillator modes and the
8 MHz FRC Oscillator, which allows clock speeds
of up to 32 MHz.

• A separate internal RC Oscillator (LPRC) with a
fixed 31 kHz output, which provides a low-power
option for timing-insensitive applications.

The internal oscillator block also provides a stable ref-
erence source for the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor (FSCM).
This option constantly monitors the main clock source
against a reference signal provided by the internal
oscillator and enables the controller to switch to the
internal oscillator, allowing for continued low-speed
operation or a safe application shutdown.
