PIC24FV32KA304T-I/MV - 16-bit 32MHz XLP MCU, 32KB Flash, 48-UQFN | Microchip
The Microchip PIC24FV32KA304T-I/MV is a 16-bit PIC® XLP™ microcontroller with 32KB of Flash program memory (11K x 24 words), running at up to 32 MHz, housed in a 48-pin UQFN (6x6 mm) package. It belongs to the PIC24FV32KA304 family, designed for extreme low-power (XLP) and battery-powered applications, and features the wider 1.8V–5.5V operating range (the “V” variant) so the same firmware can run from 3.3V or 5V rails without re-qualification.
What is a 16-bit microcontroller? A 16-bit MCU (microcontroller unit) is a small computer-on-a-chip with a 16-bit data path, on-chip Flash program memory, SRAM data memory, and integrated peripherals (ADC, timers, communication buses, GPIO). Within the broader semiconductor taxonomy, the PIC24FV32KA304 sits under: microcontroller -> embedded MCU -> 16-bit MCU -> Microchip PIC24F/PIC24FV family -> PIC24FV32KA304 sub-family. It is intended to bridge 8-bit PIC® MCU users who are outgrowing their current platform without jumping to 32-bit parts.
Key features of this part include 32KB Flash, 2KB SRAM, 512 bytes of EEPROM, 17 usable I/O pins, an integrated 12-bit ADC with up to 16 input channels, the CTMU (Charge Time Measurement Unit) for capacitive touch and time-of-flight measurements, multiple UART/SPI/I²C peripherals, and a Real-Time Clock and Calendar (RTCC) that keeps running in Deep Sleep. The “T” suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, the “I” is the industrial -40°C to +85°C temperature range, and “MV” denotes the 48-UQFN 6x6 mm package.
Architecturally, the PIC24FV32KA304 uses Microchip's modified Harvard architecture with a 16-bit data path and 24-bit instruction word, providing 32 MHz performance at modest power. XLP technology — DSBOR, DSWDT, deep-sleep RTCC — combined with nanoWatt XLP peripherals delivers deep-sleep currents in the nanoamp range, making the part well-suited for always-on sensor nodes. Brown-out reset, watchdog timer, and code protection support robust field deployment.
Typical applications include battery-powered sensor nodes, IoT end nodes, capacitive touch user interfaces, low-power medical devices, portable consumer products, and industrial sensor conditioning. Engineers select this part when they need 16-bit performance, generous Flash, and the option of 5V tolerance in a compact UQFN-48 footprint.
Designers should plan for an external decoupling network on every AVDD/VDD pin pair, route ICPGCx/ICPGDx pairs as matched-length pairs for stable in-circuit programming, and budget for the 48-pin UQFN PCB escape — at 6x6 mm the part is small enough for hand prototypes but may need a reflow profile with controlled ramp rates. Compared to 8-bit PIC16/PIC18 devices, the PIC24F family offers significantly more compute and peripherals at comparable cost and far better power efficiency in sleep modes.
