PIC24E: High Performance 70 MIPS 16-bit MCU
Microchip’s PIC24E general purpose microcontroller family
features the highest speed 70 MIPS core with an excellent
performance and code density. It offers ADC, CAN, USB-
OTG, PMP and up to 15 DMA channels for extensive
data movement. These devices are available in various
packages and with extended (125°C) temperature options.
Graphics Controller
The PIC24 product line now includes an integrated graphics
controller that allows a designer to migrate beyond fixed-
function, segmented LCDs to STN, TFT and OLED displays
with up to VGA resolution in an affordable 16-bit family. The
graphics controller contains graphic acceleration units, a
Color Look-Up Table and a display controller providing a low
cost system solution.
nanoWatt XLP Technology
Products featuring nanoWatt XLP bring advanced low power
design techniques and Deep Sleep operating mode to
16-bit controllers, giving sleep currents as low as 20 nA.
The Deep Sleep operating mode supports wake-up from a
number of sources including RTCC capability with currents
as low as 500nA.
USB On-the-Go
The PIC24 product line now offers products that include
USB-OTG. The USB-OTG allows a product to be used as
either an embedded host, a peripheral, or to negotiate to
perform as either an embedded host or peripheral. USB
can now be implemented in your 16-bit system, making
it practical for your embedded system and computer to
share many of the same peripherals.

Class Examples
HIF 2131: Designing with Microchip’s Graphics Library
This hands-on class teaches students to harness the
power of Microchip’s Graphics Library to decrease the
development time of sophisticated human interfaces using
graphical LCD display technologies with various input
devices. Students will use the Microchip Graphics Library,
the Explorer 16 development board and the Graphics
PICtail™ Plus Daughter board to implement a real life
application.
COM 3202: Designing a USB Embedded Host Application
The USB On-The-Go (OTG) Supplement was designed to allow
embedded devices with substantially less resources than
a PC to become hosts to other USB devices. Attendees will
learn about USB hosting options, using a FAT fi le system
library to manipulate fi les on a thumb drive, a process for
developing a generic (custom class) driver and an application
that acts as a host to a simple USB device.
