The PIC32CX-BZ2 and WBZ451 Curiosity Development Board, based on the WBZ451PE module, is the best development platform for evaluating the PIC32CX-BZ2 family of MCUs. It comes preconfigured with an out-of-the-box multi-protocol demo application and features a temperature sensor, a current measurement header, an RGB LED and a MikroElectronika mikroBUS socket to attach a plethora of sensors and add-on boards.
Wireless connectivity has become a mandatory feature for many products but often increases the cost and complexity of system design since it generally must be added as part of the larger application. Microchip introduced its first Arm Cortex®-M4F-based PIC family to solve this wireless connectivity design challenge by integrating Bluetooth Low Energy functionality directly into one of a system’s most basic components, supported by one of the industry’s most comprehensive developer ecosystems.
Microchip’s PIC32CX-BZ2 family includes System-on-Chip (SoC) devices as well as global regulatory-certified, RF-ready modules. In addition to Bluetooth Low Energy functionality, the family includes Zigbee® stacks and Over the Air (OTA) update capabilities. Hardware features include a 12-bit analog to digital converter (ADC), multiple timer/counters for control (TCC) channels, an on-board encryption engine, and a broad set of interfaces to touch, CAN, sensor, display and other peripherals.
The family’s 1 MB of Flash memory supports large application codes, multiprotocol wireless stacks, and OTA updates. AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (125 °C) qualified packages further simplify wireless connectivity integration where highly robust solutions are required.
