Start Your New Design With Improved, Enhanced and Lower-Cost PIC32C Arm® Cortex®-Based MCUs


Our PIC32C Arm Cortex-based microcontrollers (MCUs) are compatible with the SAM series of MCUs and offer enhanced features and benefits that include:

  • Advanced analog peripherals like Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) and a Peripheral Touch Controller (PTC) for superior touch functionality
  • Improved memory system that provides more Flash and RAM memory with Error Correction Code (ECC)
  • Enhanced security with a Hardware Security Module (HSM) and immutable boot and key storage
  • Dual USB, Gigabit Ethernet and other communication peripherals
  • Supported by MPLAB® X Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and MPLAB Harmony software development framework
  • Supported by third-party tools from IAR Systems AB, Keil and other partners

As post-pandemic market dynamics are driving a focus on creating newer cost-optimized designs, these PIC32C Arm Cortex-based devices deliver the features and performance to meet your requirements. Our strategies to help you migrate to these MCUs include:

  • Reduced prices for PIC32C devices by an average of 35%, which translates into savings of up to 60% off the price of comparable SAM families of MCUs
  • Sampling of new PIC32C devices that are scheduled for production soon
  • Focusing on the long-term introduction of Innovative, low-price devices with reduced pin counts, enhanced features and flexible peripherals
  • Offering development tools at lower prices
