PIC32MX230F064B-I/ML - 40MHz 32-bit MCU, 64KB Flash | Microchip
The Microchip Technology PIC32MX230F064B-I/ML is a 32-bit RISC microcontroller based on the MIPS32 M4K core, operating at up to 40 MHz (66 DMIPS), integrating 64 KB of Flash program memory and 16 KB of SRAM in a 28-pin QFN (6x6 mm) package. It belongs to the PIC32MX1/2/5 family, optimized for low-power (<0.5 mA/MHz), cost-sensitive embedded designs with audio, graphics, USB, and advanced analog peripherals. The wide 2.3 V to 3.6 V supply range suits both battery-powered and 3.3 V-rail industrial systems.
A microcontroller (MCU) is a single-chip computer containing a CPU, memory, and programmable I/O peripherals. The PIC32MX230 sits in the 32-bit MCU tier, above 8-bit/16-bit microcontrollers (e.g., PIC16, PIC24) and below application processors (e.g., Cortex-A, i.MX). Within the power-management hierarchy, MCUs integrate clock, reset, and supply supervision, reducing external component count for compact designs. As a member of the RISC microcontroller family, it executes most instructions in one cycle, delivering deterministic performance for real-time control.
Key features include 64 KB Flash, 16 KB SRAM, two I2S/SPI modules for codec and serial communications, Peripheral Pin Select (PPS) for flexible pin mapping, and a Parallel Master Port (PMP) for graphics or external memory interfacing. The device also integrates mTouch capacitive touch hardware, 1 ns high-resolution time measurement, on-chip temperature sensing, and five 16-bit general-purpose timers plus five input-capture/output-compare/PWM modules. Hardware multiply/divide and prefetch cache accelerate 32-bit math while keeping active current under 0.5 mA/MHz.
Architecturally, the M4K core runs instructions through a 5-stage pipeline with hardware MAC support, and PPS allows nearly every digital peripheral to be remapped to multiple pins. This decoupling of peripheral-to-pin assignments simplifies PCB layout, particularly in 28-pin QFN designs where pin count is limited. The 6x6 mm QFN package exposes a thermal pad to manage dissipation during sustained 40 MHz operation.
Typical applications include IoT edge nodes, USB audio devices, low-cost graphics HMI with PMP-driven TFT displays, capacitive touch user interfaces, and industrial sensor hubs. The combination of PPS, USB, and mTouch makes it especially strong in consumer appliances and human-interface products.
When designing with this part, plan pin assignments using the PPS tool in MPLAB X early; commit the mapping in firmware to lock the pinout. Ensure the exposed pad is soldered to a continuous ground pour for thermal and electrical performance.
