Which pin on the pic is associated with the OSC1 input?

PIN 13: OSC1/CLKIN: This is the oscillator input or the external clock input pin.

How many I O pins are there in Portb?

Out of these 40 pins, 34 pins can be used as input output pins. These pins are grouped into five which are called PORTS denoted by A, B, C, D and E.

What is the role of OSC1 and OSC2 pins *?

OSC1 & OSC2 are the main oscillator inputs. T1OSO & T1OSI are intended for implementing an independant oscillator for TIMER1. Section 2.6 in the datasheet shows that you can use the TIMER1 oscillator as a clock input, by setting the SCS bit in the OSCCON register.

How many pins are there in PIC microcontroller?

40 Pins
It has 40 Pins. IT has 5 Ports in total. ( PortA, PortB, PortC, PortD and PortE). It supports Serial Communication for which it has 2 Pins TX and RX.

What is PIC architecture?

The PIC architecture consists of two memories: Program memory and Data memory. Program Memory: This is a 4K*14 memory space. It is used to store 13-bit instructions or the program code. The program memory data is accessed by the program counter register that holds the address of the program memory.

What is Port A and port B?

Port A has an alternate function as analog inputs for the ADC. Port B is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with individually selectable internal pull-up resistors. The PORT B output buffers can sink 20mA and thus drive LED displays directly.
