8-bit Microcontrollers

Microchip’s PIC

and AVR

microcontrollers (MCUs) represent

two dominant architectures for embedded design. With a

combined 45 years’ experience developing commercially

available and cost-eective 8-bit MCUs, Microchip is the

supplier of choice for many due to its strong legacy and history

of innovation in 8-bit. Our current lineup of 8-bit PIC and

AVR MCUs incorporates the latest technologies to enhance

system performance while reducing power consumption and

development time. With more than 1,200 devices, Microchip

oers the industry’s largest 8-bit portfolio. Key features include

Core Independent Peripherals, low-power performance

with picoPower

and eXtreme Low Power (XLP) technology,

industry-leading robustness driven by best-in-class EMI/EMC

performance and simplied development with our suite of

easy-to-use development tools. For more information visit:

16-bit PIC Microcontrollers

The PIC24 is a cost-eective, low-power family of MCUs,

featuring devices with eXtreme Low Power (XLP) technology,

16 MIPS performance and dual partition memory up to

1024 KB of Flash with a rich set of Core Independent Periph-

erals (CIPs). Our portfolio oers an upgrade in features and

peripherals for applications that are pushing the boundaries of

8-bit MCU capabilities, oering more memory, more pins and

faster peripherals in the same ecosystem for easy migration.

The PIC24 MCUs also feature dedicated peripherals and func-

tions to help increase the reliability in safety critical applications

and with AEC Q100 qualication, the high-performance PIC24

MCUs oer 3V, 5V and up to 150°C robust operations. For

dsPIC

Digital Signal Controllers

The dsPIC family of Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs) features

a fully implemented Digital Signal Processor (DSP) engine

with up to 100 MIPS performance capable of high-eciency,

high-precision variable speed, constant torque PI control and

Field Oriented Control (FOC) motor control. Equipped with

high-speed Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs), op-amps,

and comparators coupled with functional safety features and

operations up to 150°C, the dsPIC33 family is ideal for PMSM,

ACIM and BLDC motor control in industrial, medical, automo-

tive and consumer applications.

The dsPIC family also oers dual cores with up to 100 MIPS

equipped with high speed PWMs, ADCs, PGAs to handle very

tight control loop execution and separate time-critical control

loops from housekeeping making them ideal for demand-

ing power conversion applications and lighting in industrial,

medical, automotive and consumer applications. The dsPIC33

MCUS also oer the capability to live update rmware, which is

critical for server applications that cannot aord any downtime.

32-bit Microcontrollers

From simple embedded control to advanced graphics and

secure Internet of Things (IoT) applications, Microchip portfolio

of 32-bit MCUs can meet your design challenge. Spanning

a wide range of options—from oering the industry’s lowest

power consumption to delivering the highest performance—

these MCUs run at up to 600 DMIPs and deliver ample code

and data space with up to 2048 KB Flash and 512 KB RAM

with 32 MB integrated DDR2 DRAM or 128 MB externally ad-

dressable options. They are supported by novel and easy-to-

use software solutions to speed up your application develop-

ment. For more information visit: www.microchip.com/32bit.

32-bit Arm

Microprocessors

As you push beyond the boundaries of 32-bit MCUs, the

SAM9 (ARM9) and SAMA5 (Cortex

A5) microprocessor

(MPU) families provide the power and performance needed for

demanding applications. They feature up to 600 MHz

(942 DMIPS) operation and support for up to 512 MB of

external DDR2 or DDR3 DRAM. Microchip’s MPUs oer a

rich set of peripherals and user interfaces including Gigabit

Ethernet MACs, high-speed USB, hardware video decoding,

capacitive touch, 12-bit CMOS image (camera) sensors, I

audio interfaces and advanced 24-bit graphic LCD controllers

with overlays. They deliver market-leading low power (down

to 0.3 mW sleep) and advanced security features needed for

Internet-connected gateways and cost-sensitive industrial

and consumer applications. The MPU devices come with free

Linux

OS and third-party tools and software, and low-cost

hardware development boards are available to ease develop-

ment. For more information visit: www.microchip.com/mpu.
