Motor Control

The need for advanced motor control has increased due to user expectations for quiet operation and expanding government regulations to reduce energy consumption. To achieve these goals, motors require a much higher level of electronic control.

Microchip offers a variety of motor control solutions to address the needs of motor configuration and functionality. These include our low pin count 8-bit PIC16 microcontrollers, high performance 8-bit PIC18 MCUs and 16-bit dsPIC® digital signal controllers which offer highly optimized motor control solutions including free software libraries and routines.
