Microchip Intros PIC18F4331/4431/2331/2431 MCUs

Microchip Technology Inc. (Chandler, AZ) announced a new family of eight-bit Flash microcontrollers (MCUs) with new advanced motor control peripherals that deliver efficiency, quiet operation, great range, and extend the life of motors in automotive, industrial, appliance and consumer applications.

The 40-pin PIC18F4331/4431 and 28-pin PIC18F2331/2431 microcontrollers provide a complete solution for precise and energy-efficient operation in sophisticated motor control applications through advanced analog and digital feedback, and the new three-phase complimentary pulse-width modulation control system.

The PIC18F4331/4431 devices are available in 40-pin DIP, and 44-pin TQFP and QFN packages. The PIC18F2331/2431 parts are offered in 28-pin SDIP, SOIC and QFN packages. General samples and volume production for all four MCUs are available now.
