Dear Friends,

Board space is always critical, it is a very important figure during design process. Today’s update shows up a good way to save space and cost.

Find all my magazines from 2006 on in our free archive on bodospower.com. There is no better way to communicate. We all share one world. As a publisher I serve the world: one magazine, on time, every time.

Best regards,
Bodo Arlt

Two dsPIC33C Devices on a Single Chip

The dsPIC33CH dual-core DSCs are designed to facilitate independent code development for each core by separate design teams, which can subsequently be seamlessly integrated when the separate codes are later brought together. With the power of two dsPIC33C DSCs in a single chip, the dsPIC33CH family is optimized for several applications including safety-critical applications, touch control, wireless charging, digital power, motor control and many more.

Key Features

• High performance with the power of two dsPIC33C DSCs in one chip
• Enables isolation of safety-critical firmware and real-time operation from rest of the application code
• Specialized peripherals for high-performance
• Board space and cost savings of up to 40% by eliminating the need for an additional microcontroller (MCU) and supporting circuits
• Faster on-chip, inter-core communication
• Reduces development time by enabling parallel development by multiple teams
