PIC32MZ1024EFK100-E/PT Overview
What is a PIC32 microcontroller? A PIC32 is a 32-bit MIPS-based microcontroller from Microchip Technology that sits above the 16-bit PIC24/dsPIC and 8-bit PIC16/PIC18 families, targeting high-performance embedded applications that require large memory, DSP and connectivity. Within the PIC32 portfolio, the PIC32MZ EF family is the connectivity sub-line, integrating an IEEE 754-compliant single/double-precision FPU, four 64-bit accumulators, single-cycle MAC, saturating and fractional math, plus a crypto engine, CAN, USB-HS, Ethernet and advanced analog.
Key features include 200 MHz / 330 DMIPS core performance, 1 MB dual-panel Flash for live firmware update, 256 KB SRAM with cache, an integrated crypto engine (AES, DES, SHA, MD5), 10/100 Ethernet MAC, USB 2.0 High-Speed OTG, two CAN 2.0b controllers, six UART, four SPI, five I2C, a 12-bit 5 Msps ADC with up to 48 channels, two analog comparators, and a parallel master port for external graphics or memory. The 100-pin TQFP package offers generous I/O with operating temperature of -40 °C to +125 °C (E suffix = extended). The crypto sub-line (EFK) adds the hardware AES/SHA block, which the EFH/EFG variants omit.
Architecturally the device uses a 5-stage MIPS M-class pipeline with DSP extensions and dual-panel Flash that lets firmware swap between two banks during a live update without halting the CPU. The FPU is full IEEE 754 single/double precision, supporting 200 MHz single-cycle math. The MMU and 16 KB instruction cache plus 4 KB data cache shield the core from flash wait-states at full speed.
Typical applications include industrial gateways and IoT edge nodes (Ethernet + USB + crypto), graphics HMI with TFT LCD, motor control and field-oriented control (FOC) drives, automotive body and infotainment ECUs (with the -I temperature grade for industrial, -E for extended), secure connected medical devices, and high-end consumer audio or smart-home hubs that need TLS/DTLS offload via the crypto engine.
When designing with this part, pay attention to decoupling (1 x 10 µF bulk + 0.1 µF per VDD pin), trace impedance for the 50 MHz Ethernet RMII and the high-speed USB DP/DN pair, and the live-update firmware flow that relies on dual-panel flash and the bootloader NVM region. The E temperature grade (-40 °C to +125 °C) versus I grade (-40 °C to +85 °C) is a hardware-only difference that matters for harsh environments.

Typical Applications
PIC32MZ1024EFK100-E/PT is suitable for 6 applications: Industrial IoT Gateways, Graphics HMI / TFT Touch Panels, Motor Control and Field-Oriented Control (FOC), Automotive Body and Infotainment ECUs, Secure Connected Medical Devices, Smart Home / Building Automation Hubs.
Industrial IoT Gateways
The PIC32MZ1024EFK100-E/PT fits industrial IoT gateways because it integrates 10/100 Ethernet MAC (RMII/MII), USB-HS OTG, two CAN 2.0b controllers, six UART and a hardware crypto engine for TLS/DTLS offload. Running at 200 MHz / 330 DMIPS with 1 MB Flash, the device can host both a Modbus/TCP-to-CAN gateway and a TLS-secured MQTT client on a single chip. The E temperature grade (-40 to +125 °C) covers factory-floor deployments without additional thermal qualification. Engineers typically pair it with a PHY (e.g. LAN8720A) for Ethernet and an external SPI flash for OTA firmware storage alongside the dual-panel on-chip Flash.
Recommended
Graphics HMI / TFT Touch Panels
The PIC32MZ1024EFK100-E/PT supports graphics HMI panels through its parallel master port (PMP) and 200 MHz core, which can drive a QVGA/WQVGA TFT LCD with hardware-accelerated rendering. The 256 KB SRAM and 16 KB instruction cache sustain frame-buffer updates without choking the CPU. With USB-HS for touch-screen HID, SPI for display controller configuration and I2C for capacitive touch, the EFK100 consolidates the entire HMI controller on one chip. The crypto engine is optional but useful for secure-boot of the HMI firmware image. Engineers pair this part with an ILI9488 or HX8347 controller over PMP.
Recommended
Motor Control and Field-Oriented Control (FOC)
The PIC32MZ1024EFK100-E/PT runs the FOC algorithm at 200 MHz, which is more than adequate for 3-phase PMSM/BLDC loops at 20-50 kHz PWM. Its 12-bit 5 Msps ADC simultaneously samples three phase currents plus DC-bus voltage, while the PWM-triggered ADC sync minimises sample jitter. The crypto engine can sign firmware updates over CAN-FD for secure motor-controller field upgrades. With 6 UART, engineers add RS-485 for industrial motor networks and CANopen or EtherCAT slave interfaces alongside the FOC core. The E temperature grade suits industrial drive cabinets.
Recommended
Automotive Body and Infotainment ECUs
The PIC32MZ1024EFK100-E/PT is widely used in automotive body ECUs (door modules, HVAC, lighting) thanks to its dual CAN 2.0b ports, LIN-capable UARTs and 200 MHz core running AUTOSAR-classical or customer stacks. The E temperature grade (-40 to +125 °C) covers cabin and under-hood deployments, while the hardware crypto engine secures OTA updates. LIN bus, CAN-FD-ready peripherals and the dual-panel Flash for live firmware update map directly to automotive ECU requirements. Engineers add a TJA1057 CAN transceiver and a TLE7259-3 LIN transceiver externally.
Recommended
Secure Connected Medical Devices
The PIC32MZ1024EFK100-E/PT is well suited to FDA-compliant connected medical devices such as patient monitors, infusion pumps and portable diagnostic equipment, because the integrated hardware crypto engine accelerates AES-128/256 and SHA-256 for authenticated data transmission to hospital EMR systems. Running at 200 MHz, the device can also drive a TFT display for bedside monitors while streaming data over Ethernet or USB-HS. The E temperature grade covers the broader range required by IEC 60601-1 environment testing, and 1 MB Flash accommodates full FDA-class II firmware with secure-boot.
Recommended
Smart Home / Building Automation Hubs
The PIC32MZ1024EFK100-E/PT consolidates a smart-home gateway's connectivity into a single MCU: Ethernet for WAN, USB for 4G/Wi-Fi dongle, two CAN 2.0b for HVAC bus, multiple UART for Zigbee/Matter coordinator pass-through, and the crypto engine to terminate TLS sessions locally. The 1 MB Flash stores firmware and a small Matter/Thread border-router stack, while 256 KB SRAM holds TLS sessions and queue buffers. The E temperature grade covers basement boiler rooms and outdoor enclosures. Engineers add an Espressif ESP32-H2 over UART for Matter/Thread radio.

Key Differentiators
- Hardware crypto engine integrated on-die (vs PIC32MZ1024EFH100-E/PT)
- Extended -40 to +125 °C temperature grade in same package (vs PIC32MZ1024EFE100T-I/PT)
- Dual-panel Flash for live firmware update (vs PIC32MX series)
Design Notes
Estimated: at 200 MHz core and 3.3 V, the PIC32MZ1024EFK100-E/PT draws approximately 80-100 mA typical, with peaks up to 130 mA during Flash write/erase. Place one 10 µF bulk ceramic on each VDDCORE/VDD pair and at minimum one 0.1 µF decoupling cap within 2 mm of every VDD pin. Add a ferrite bead between the main 3.3 V rail and the ADC analog supply (AVDD) for low-noise ADC measurements.
Keep the 50 MHz RMII Ethernet traces length-matched within 50 mil and routed over a continuous ground plane. The USB DP/DN pair requires 90 Ω differential impedance and must not cross any other high-speed trace. The 12 MHz crystal traces should be less than 5 mm long and routed symmetrically to avoid duty-cycle distortion. Per Microchip AN1267, place the 32.768 kHz crystal as close as possible to the SOSC pins with a guard ring to ground.
Do not enable live firmware update (dual-panel Flash) without first programming a valid bootloader in the Boot Flash region. Erasing the wrong panel can permanently brick the device if the bootloader is not in place. The crypto engine requires initialization via the CFGCON register before first use - some libraries skip this and silently produce wrong AES output. Per the PIC32MZ EF errata (DS80000526), the EBI/PMCD pins share function with analog inputs and must be configured as digital before use.
Estimated: at 200 MHz the core die dissipates approximately 0.4 W continuous, with the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the 100-pin TQFP being roughly 50 °C/W on a standard JEDEC 2-layer board. Full -40 to +125 °C E-temperature operation is achievable without heatsinking up to about 60 °C ambient; above that, add a copper-pour heat spreader. The die's maximum junction temperature is 150 °C.
Compliance Information
RoHS and REACH compliant per Microchip product page. PIC32MZ EF family is not AEC-Q100 qualified; for automotive applications an AEC-Q100 part should be sourced separately. E temperature grade covers -40 to +125 °C industrial use.
