These applications include a wide range of everyday products such as hair dryers , electric toothbrushes , rice cookers , vacuum cleaners , coffee makers , and blenders . Despite their small size , the PIC12F series microcontrollers offer interesting features including wide operating voltage , internal programmable oscillator , 4 channels of 10-bit
