Microchip ups controller voltage for noise immunity

Microchip has introduced a range of 16-bit dsPIC33 Digital Signal Controllers at the SPS IPC Drives Conference in Germany, which provides 5V operation for improved noise immunity.

The dsPIC33EV family is the first dsPIC DSC with Error Correcting Code (ECC) flash for increased reliability and safety.

For safety-critical applications, the dsPIC33EV devices also include Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC), Deadman Timer (DMT), and Windowed Watchdog Timer (WWDT) peripherals as well as a backup system oscillator and certified Class B software.

The devices can offer up to six motor control PWMs, 12-bit ADC, and operational amplifiers.

There is also an interface for 5V automotive sensors such as level or flow sensing. The devices can execute smart sensor filter algorithms and integrate CAN communication software.

The dsPIC33EV devices offer up to 150°C operation with AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualification enabling robust automotive applications that are suitable for under-hood applications.

The dsPIC33 “EV” family is supported by Microchip’s dsPIC33EV 5V CAN-LIN Starter Kit (DM330018) priced at $79.99.
