The graphics controller sub-system at the heart of the PIC32MZ DA is the most advanced of its kind in the industry.
The Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) inside the PIC32MZ DA is loaded with features that will enable your GUI to create graphical actions that would be impractical for an MCU CPU alone.
The industry’s only integrated DRAM provides expansive storage for graphics, complex communications, and data logging applications.
The PIC32MZ DA gives you the ability to increase your application’s color resolution and display size with easy-to-use MCU-based resources and unique graphics design tools including the MPLAB® Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and MPLAB Harmony Integrated Software Framework.
MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is an expandable, highly configurable software program that incorporates powerful tools to help you discover, configure, develop, debug and qualify embedded designs for most of Microchip’s microcontrollers and digital signal controllers. MPLAB X IDE works seamlessly with the MPLAB development ecosystem of software and tools, many of which are completely free.
MPLAB Harmony v3 is a flexible, fully integrated embedded software development framework for 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs). It enables robust framework development of interoperable RTOS-friendly libraries with quick and extensive Microchip support for third-party software integration. MPLAB Harmony includes a set of peripheral libraries, drivers and system services that are readily accessible for application development. The code development format allows for maximum re-use and reduces time to market.
Bootloaders are used to upgrade firmware on a target device without using an external programmer or debugger. Commonly used with microcontrollers (MCUs), a bootloader contains code that loads and executes an application program. Bootloaders can also perform additional tasks such as validating the code integrity and authenticity.
Designed for complex applications, the PIC32MZ EF (MZEF) series offers high-performance microcontrollers (MCUs) with speeds up to 252 MHz and 415 DMIPS. Featuring up to 2 MB of dual-panel Flash memory and 512 KB of RAM, they provide excellent connectivity options such as Hi-Speed USB, CAN and 10/100 Ethernet. With an integrated double-precision FPU and an optional hardware crypto accelerator, the MZEF devices excel in process-intensive applications. Fully supported by the MPLAB® Harmony framework, these devices enable rapid development while meeting extended temperature and AECQ-100 Grade 1 qualification standards.
