Microchip Expands 70 MIPS dsPIC33E DSCs and PIC24E MCUs with 32 KB to 256 KB Flash for Easy Memory Migration

Microchip Technology Inc. MCHP, a leading provider of microcontroller, analog and Flash-IP solutions, today announced new additions to the 70 MIPS dsPIC33E and PIC24E product families, building on Microchip's motor control and general-purpose device series that include integrated Op Amps and a Charge Time Measurement Unit (CTMU) for temperature sensing or mTouch™ capacitive touch sensing. The devices feature 70 MIPS of performance for motor control, sensing, actuators and other embedded applications. The new Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs) and microcontrollers include pin and feature compatible devices ranging from 32-256 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.
