Microchip upgrades Flash on DSCs, MCUs

14 November 2012 DSP, Micros & Memory

Microchip announced new additions to the 70 MIPS dsPIC33E and PIC24E product families which build on the motor-control and general-purpose device families which include integrated op-amps and a Charge Time Measurement Unit (CTMU) for temperature sensing or mTouch capacitive touch sensing.

The new digital signal controllers (DSCs) and microcontrollers (MCUs) feature 70 MIPS of performance for motor control, sensing, actuators and other embedded applications.

The families include pin- and feature-compatible devices ranging from 32 to 256 KB of Flash memory, enabling designers to easily migrate within the family. These devices are also code compatible with Microchip’s existing dsPIC33F products, providing a migration path from 40 to 70 MIPS.

The new devices include new on-chip peripherals such as op-amps which can be used in a variety of sensing applications where signal amplification is required. Their feature set allows them to be used in sensor, communications, automotive, industrial and emerging applications.
