For applications demanding low power and longer battery life, the PIC32MM has sleep modes down to 500nA, and applications with space constraints will benefit from the small 4 x 4 mm package options. The PIC32MM devices include core independent peripherals such as Configurable Logic Cells (CLC) and Multiple-output Capture Compare PWMs (MCCPs) which help enable sensorless BLDC motor control applications.
To help accelerate evaluation and development, a PIC32MM processor plug-in module is available, which plugs into the Explorer 16 Development Board. The entire family of PIC32MM devices is supported by Microchip’s professional tool ecosystem that includes MPLAB X IDE and the MPLAB XC compiler. The MPLAB Code Configurator, a plug-in to the MPLAB X, helps with peripheral setup, device configuration and pin mapping.
