- Built-in advanced motor control, CAN, SENT, and touch peripherals for automotive, consumer electronics, and industrial applications

Seoul, November 26, 2014 – Microchip Technology (Korea Representative: Byung-Don Han), a global leader in microcontroller, mixed-signal, analog, and Flash-IP solutions, announced the new 16-bit dsPIC33 digital signal controller (DSC), the dsPIC33 "EV" family, at the SPS IPC Drives Conference held in Germany.

The new product family offers enhanced noise immunity and robustness with 5V operation, making it ideal for devices operating in harsh environments, such as consumer electronics and automotive applications. The dsPIC33EV family is the first dsPIC® DSC with built-in Error Correction Code (ECC) flash, providing enhanced reliability and security. For security-critical applications, the dsPIC33EV device includes CRC, Deadman Timer (DMT), and Windowed Watchdog Timer (WWDT) peripherals, as well as a backup system oscillator and certified Class B software.

Key features of this product family include up to six advanced motor control PWMs, 12-bit ADCs, and operational amplifiers, providing an ideal combination for motor control applications. In addition to enhanced noise immunity and stability, the dsPIC33EV device offers a simple interface to 5V automotive sensors, such as level or flow detection, and features CAN communication software with rich performance capabilities for executing smart sensor filter algorithms. Furthermore, it enables a wide dynamic range through operation at higher voltages for robust automotive touch user interfaces and supports larger screen sizes. The dsPIC33EV device can operate at up to 150°C and has obtained AEC-Q100 Grade 0 certification, enabling rugged automotive applications ideal for under-hood applications.

Enhanced peripheral integration features include CAN and SENT peripherals for automotive communication, 70 MIPS performance for high-speed control algorithm execution, and DSP acceleration. The dsPIC33EV product family combines these features with low system costs and high performance, making it highly suitable for a wide range of applications such as home appliances (dryers, refrigerators, dishwashers, range hoods, control panels), industrial (power tools, sewing machines, actuators, building control, HVAC systems), and the automotive market (sensors, user interfaces, fuel pumps, cooling fans, water pumps).

"Many automotive and consumer electronics applications prefer 5V operating products that offer excellent ruggedness in noisy environments and can be easily connected to precision sensors," said Joe Thomsen, Vice President of Microchip's MCU16 business unit. "The new dsPIC33EV family is ideal for motor control and automotive sensor applications as it provides 5V operation at up to 150°C, along with CAN and SENT communication."
