MCHPPIC32MX795F512L-80I/PT
Overview
The PIC32MX795F512L is a high-performance 32-bit microcontroller based on the MIPS32 M4K core, operating at up to 80MHz. It is equipped with 512KB of Flash and 128KB of RAM, making it suitable for memory-intensive embedded applications that require robust connectivity options. The device stands out for its integrated 10/100 Ethernet MAC, dual CAN 2.0B modules, and USB 2.0 OTG support.
Why Choose This Part
This MCU offers a comprehensive connectivity suite including Ethernet, CAN, and USB on a single chip, reducing BOM complexity. Its MIPS32 M4K core includes DSP instructions and a hardware multiply-accumulate (MAC) unit for efficient signal processing. Furthermore, the 85 available I/O pins and flexible DMA controller allow for high-bandwidth data movement without taxing the CPU.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Development is typically performed using the Microchip MPLAB X IDE and the MPLAB XC32 compiler. For hardware evaluation, the PIC32 Ethernet Starter Kit II (DM320004-2) is the standard platform. Debugging requires a compatible programmer such as the MPLAB ICD 4 or PICkit 4 connected via the ICSP header.
