dsPIC33C Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs)
Upgrade the Performance in Your Real-World and Time-Critical Designs
Motor control, digital power, advanced sensing and control, safety-critical and high-performance embedded applications come with an array of design challenges. You might need to implement high-precision variable speed in a motor control application or high-speed control loop execution in a power conversion application. Your design may need functional safety compliance, or your industrial automation application may require math-intensive functions. To address these real-world design requirements, you need a high-performance solution that provides the processing power of a Digital Signal Controller (DSC) and the design simplicity of a microcontroller (MCU).
The high-performance dsPIC33C family of DSCs features the dsPIC33 "C” core with a Digital Signal Processing (DSP) engine, expanded context-selected registers to reduce interrupt latency, new instructions to accelerate DSP performance, tightly coupled peripherals, and faster execution to enable complex, high-speed control loop implementation. Offering 100 MIPS performance, the dsPIC33C family of DSCs provides a path for users of dsPIC33E and dsPIC33F DSCs to develop more sophisticated applications.
Key Applications
General-Purpose, High-Performance and Robust Designs
dsPIC33C DSCs offer a rich set of peripherals designed to meet diverse needs of demanding high-performance applications. These DSCs offer accelerated CPU performance and a high level of analog integration for real-time control, robust connectivity and advanced sensor interfacing applications.
Motor Control
dsPIC33C DSCs feature integrated high-resolution Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM), dedicated time bases and fast 12-bit Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) peripherals. They are optimized for applications that require variable speed with constant torque and Field-Oriented Control (FOC) for greater efficiency.
Digital Power Conversion
The dsPIC33C family of DSCs features dedicated peripherals, including advanced analog and multiple high-resolution PWM generators, to improve the efficiency of digital power conversion and lighting applications that function over widely varying load conditions.
Functional Safety
dsPIC33C DSCs are functional safety ready/compliant and offer hardware safety features, FMEDA, safety manual and diagnostic routines that can be easily integrated into your safety-critical designs. These functional safety ready/compliant DSCs are excellent choices for applications targeting ISO 26262 ASIL B, IEC 61508 SIL 2 and IEC 60730 Class B standards.
