Product Details

HCS101-I/P - Fixed-Code Remote-Control Encoder

Microchip Technology HCS101-I/P is an 8-pin, 300-mil PDIP fixed-code encoder for simple unidirectional remote-control transmitters. The I temperature suffix specifies -40°C to +85°C operation.

Verify transmitter programming, receiver decoding and application security before use. This fixed-code device is not a code-hopping security encoder.

Overview

The HCS101 generates a pulse-width-modulated, 66-bit fixed-code transmission after a button input is asserted. Its EEPROM holds transmitter identity and configuration data, including two programmable 32-bit serial numbers, an additional 10-bit serial number and a nonvolatile 16-bit counter. The device integrates timing and oscillator functions; the transmitter design supplies buttons and an appropriate RF stage.

The fixed-code format does not provide the code-hopping protection associated with KEELOQ encoders. Select the receiver design and threat model accordingly.

Key Advantages

Simple transmitter architecture

Integrated EEPROM, oscillator and timing reduce the external circuitry needed around the button and RF stages.

Configurable controls

Three button inputs support up to seven functions when combined as described by the manufacturer.

Wide supply range

Specified operation spans 3.5 V to 13.3 V, subject to the manufacturer's electrical limits.

Through-hole package

The /P ordering suffix selects an 8-lead plastic dual in-line package with a 300-mil body.

Feature Summary

Fixed-code output

66-bit PWM code word with serial-number, counter and function information.

Nonvolatile configuration

On-chip EEPROM stores programmed identity and operating parameters.

Automatic completion

Transmission behavior completes a code word after buttons are released.

Low-power standby

Automatic power-down supports battery-powered remote controls.

Package & Footprint

HCS101-I/P uses Microchip's 8-lead, 300-mil plastic dual in-line package. The LCDCHIP product record specifies 8-DIP (0.300 in, 7.62 mm), consistent with the manufacturer's /P ordering code. The package registry's normalized name is 8-DIP.

Layout checks
  • Use the current Microchip 8-lead PDIP outline for mechanical design.
  • Confirm the 300-mil body, pin-1 orientation and through-hole row spacing.
  • Do not substitute an 8-SOIC land pattern for this /P variant.

The registered package JPG is pending: the local 8-DIP.jpg file is absent and its production URL currently returns HTTP 404. Do not release this page until the correct image is online and verified.

Pin Functions

Microchip's HCS101 datasheet lists the following pin assignments for the 8-pin PDIP and SOIC variants.

1 — S0

Switch input 0.

2 — S1

Switch input 1.

3 — S2

Switch input 2; clock input in programming mode.

4 — NC

No connection.

5 — VSS

Ground reference.

6 — DATA

PWM output; data pin in programming mode.

7 — NC

No connection.

8 — VDD

Positive supply input.

Keep programming-mode behavior and DATA-line drive conditions in mind when connecting the RF stage.

Typical and maximum values have different meanings; confirm the full datasheet conditions for current and timing parameters during design.

Replacement Considerations

Microchip identifies HCS201 as pin-compatible with the HCS101 family, but HCS201 uses code hopping and is not a functional drop-in for a receiver expecting the HCS101 fixed-code protocol. Any migration requires transmitter programming, receiver firmware/protocol and security review. No unverified internal replacement link is provided.

Manufacturer Information

Manufacturer: Microchip Technology. The exact order-code suffix identifies the industrial-temperature, 8-lead plastic DIP option. Consult the current manufacturer datasheet, errata and package drawing before production release.

Applications

Simple remote controls

Lighting, fans and similar low-security transmitter functions.

Gate or garage controls

Only where the fixed-code security properties are acceptable to the system design.

Identity tokens

Unidirectional identification with a compatible receiver.

Educational or toy controls

Battery-powered remote interfaces with a matching RF stage.

Quality & Authenticity

Verify the full HCS101-I/P marking, package body and pin orientation against Microchip documentation. Ensure the device is programmed for the intended receiver before evaluating transmitter behavior. Preserve lot and traceability records under the project's normal incoming-inspection process.

FAQ

What does -I/P mean?

I denotes the -40°C to +85°C temperature option and P denotes an 8-lead, 300-mil plastic DIP package.

Is HCS101 a code-hopping encoder?

No. HCS101 transmits a fixed code; do not assume KEELOQ code-hopping security.

Can HCS201 replace it directly?

Not without a system-level protocol, programming and receiver review, despite the stated pin compatibility.

Engineering Notice

Use the manufacturer datasheet and current package drawing as design authorities. Confirm supply limits, RF interface, receiver compatibility and fixed-code security suitability. The package illustration is pending publication and must be verified before this product detail is released.
