What is a PIC32MX microcontroller? The PIC32MX family is Microchip's MIPS-based 32-bit extension of the legacy PIC16/PIC24 16-bit portfolio, positioned in the mid-range embedded segment between 8-bit AVR/PIC MCUs and higher-end ARM Cortex-M parts. It runs the same MPLAB Harmony and MPLAB X toolchains as Microchip's other MCUs, giving designers an upgrade path from 8-bit code while keeping the same peripheral libraries and debugger ecosystem. Within the PIC32MX1xx/2xx 44-pin sub-family, the PIC32MX170 specifically adds USB and advanced analog, while the PIC32MX150 in the same pinout drops USB.
Key features include 256 KB single-cycle Flash, 64 KB SRAM, Peripheral Pin Select (PPS) for flexible signal routing, mTouch capacitive touch support, a 1 ns resolution 16-bit timer/capture engine, and on-chip temperature sensing. Six UART, four SPI, and four I2C channels give generous connectivity headroom for sensor hubs, while the hardware crypto block is absent on the MX1xx series (unlike MX2xx). The device operates from 2.3 V to 3.6 V.
The 44-VTLA package is the thinnest variant (0.5 mm nominal height), well-suited to space-constrained handhelds where the QFN (ML) and TQFP (PT) alternatives are taller. Designers porting between VTLA, QFN, and TQFP must verify pinout tables because lead pitch differs (0.4 mm VTLA, 0.65 mm QFN, 0.8 mm TQFP); the silicon is identical, but the PCB footprint cannot be reused.
Typical applications include USB audio interfaces, USB HID peripherals, sensor hub controllers, small graphical user interfaces (PMP-driven TFT), industrial USB-to-UART bridges, and consumer learning/evaluation boards such as the PIC32MX USB Starter Kit.
A critical design consideration is the 2.3-3.6 V supply range: any 5 V signal requires level translation, and the 44-VTLA package is moisture-sensitive (MSL-3), demanding dry-pack handling and reflow profiles below 260 C peak.
This page aggregates distributor pricing, drop-in alternative MPNs from the same VTLA-44 footprint, and design notes that go beyond the datasheet application examples to help engineers short-list replacement parts quickly.

典型應用
PIC32MX170F256DT-50I/TL 適用於 6 應用s: USB Audio Interface, USB HID Peripheral Device, Small TFT GUI Controller, Industrial USB-to-UART/SPI/I2C Bridge, Capacitive Touch Sensor Hub, Sensor Hub and Data Logger.
USB Audio Interface
The PIC32MX170F256DT-50I/TL fits USB audio interface designs because its USB 2.0 Full-Speed OTG controller plus dual I2S interfaces support asynchronous USB audio streaming with 48 kHz / 24-bit sample rates. The 50 MHz MIPS M4K core has ample headroom for USB isochronous endpoint handling and audio buffering in 64 KB SRAM, while the 10-bit ADC handles auxiliary line-level monitoring. Placed as the central MCU with the I2S bus driving an external DAC like the CS4344, this part matches USB Audio Class 1.0/2.0 reference designs without needing an external PHY.
推薦
USB HID Peripheral Device
The PIC32MX170F256DT-50I/TL is well-suited for USB HID peripherals such as custom keyboards, game controllers, and industrial keypads because the integrated USB Full-Speed controller with internal transceiver eliminates an external PHY. Its Peripheral Pin Select (PPS) routes any digital peripheral to any I/O, simplifying matrix-scanning keypads with up to 28 ADC channels available for analog inputs like potentiometers or capacitive sliders. The 50 MHz CPU keeps HID polling latency under 1 ms with significant idle for power-saving Sleep modes.
推薦
Small TFT GUI Controller
For graphical user interfaces on 3.5-inch or smaller TFT displays, the PIC32MX170F256DT-50I/TL provides a Parallel Master Port (PMP) capable of driving 8-bit or 16-bit 8080/6800 parallel LCDs at up to 25 MHz pixel clock. The 64 KB SRAM buffers one full QVGA frame plus display lists, and the 256 KB Flash stores graphical assets. Unlike MCUs without PMP, this part avoids bit-banging SPI TFT buses and achieves fluid UI rendering with the MIPS M4K DMA offloading pixel transfers.
推薦
Industrial USB-to-UART/SPI/I2C Bridge
The PIC32MX170F256DT-50I/TL serves industrial USB-to-serial bridge designs because the USB device controller plus six UART / four SPI / four I2C channels support multi-protocol converters in a single chip. The wide 2.3-3.6 V supply accommodates 3.3 V industrial rails directly, while the on-chip temperature sensor monitors bridge health. Compared with dedicated bridges like the MCP2200, this MCU adds programmable logic and mTouch capacitive buttons, enabling smart industrial cable replacements.
推薦
Capacitive Touch Sensor Hub
The PIC32MX170F256DT-50I/TL hosts mTouch capacitive touch sensing on up to 28 channels via the CTMU peripheral, making it ideal for appliance control panels, smart locks, and proximity-sensing user interfaces. The 1 ns resolution 16-bit timer captures micro-touch events with high SNR, while the on-chip temperature sensor compensates for environmental drift. Designers replace mechanical keypads and rotary encoders with a sealed glass surface, gaining IP65 protection with the 44-VTLA package's low 0.5 mm profile.
推薦
Sensor Hub and Data Logger
The PIC32MX170F256DT-50I/TL functions as a multi-sensor hub because its four I2C, four SPI, and 28 ADC channels can concurrently poll temperature, pressure, accelerometer, and flow sensors at rates exceeding 1 ksps each. The 256 KB Flash and 64 KB SRAM buffer sensor logs locally before forwarding over USB or UART to a host processor, making the part suitable for portable instrumentation and environmental monitoring. Sleep current below 30 uA extends battery life in field deployments.

主要差異化特點
- Integrated USB 2.0 Full-Speed OTG with internal transceiver (對比PIC32MX150F256DT-50I/TL)
- Tape & Reel packaging for SMT production (對比PIC32MX170F256D-I/TL)
- 50 MHz speed grade - 25% more CPU headroom (對比PIC32MX170F256B-50I/SP)
設計說明
The PIC32MX170F256DT-50I/TL operates from 2.3 V to 3.6 V and requires decoupling capacitors per the Microchip datasheet: one 10 uF bulk capacitor plus one 0.1 uF ceramic cap on each VDD pin, plus a 10 uF + 0.1 uF pair on AVDD if the ADC is used. Place the 0.1 uF caps within 2 mm of each supply pin. The internal voltage regulator core supplies 1.8 V; do not draw external load from it. VREF+ may be tied to AVDD or driven externally; if external, decouple it with 10 nF.
At 50 MHz with USB active, typical core current is about 25 mA (0.5 mA/MHz per the PIC32MX1XX family datasheet). Estimated: with 3.3 V supply and full peripheral activity including ADC and USB, total IDD is roughly 30 mA, dissipating 100 mW - well within the 44-VTLA 6x6 mm package's thermal limits. No heatsink is needed. For continuous USB bus-powered operation, factor in VBUS regulator efficiency and ensure ambient temperature stays below +85 C.
The 44-VTLA package has 0.4 mm lead pitch and a central thermal pad that MUST be soldered to a corresponding PCB land with multiple thermal vias to the internal ground plane for electrical and thermal performance. Recommended PCB land pattern is per Microchip package drawing 44L-VTLA-6x6. The exposed pad (EP) is electrically VSS internally; do not connect it to anything else. Hand soldering this package is not feasible - use reflow or hot-air rework only.
Do not confuse the 'T' suffix (Tape & Reel) with package code. The package code 'TL' is VTLA-44, while 'PT' is TQFP-44 and 'ML' is QFN-44 - these are not footprint-compatible. Also, the operating temperature suffix 'I' denotes -40 to +85 C industrial; 'V' denotes -40 to +125 C automotive-grade. Programming/debugging requires a PICkit 3/4/5 or ICD via the PGECx/PGEDx pins, not the USB pins.
USB DP/DM traces must be 90 ohm differential, matched within 2 mm, and routed over a continuous ground plane without splits. Place the 15 kohm pull-down on D- only when configuring as full-speed device per USB spec; the PIC32MX170 internal pull-down may be insufficient for compliance. Keep clock traces (SOSC, POSC) short and guard-banded; place the 32.768 kHz crystal load caps as close to the SOSCI/SOSCO pins as possible.
合規資訊
RoHS compliant per Microchip product page. The 'I' suffix denotes industrial -40 to +85 C grade; for AEC-Q100 automotive grade, choose the 'V' temperature suffix variants. Lead-free reflow up to 260 C peak per JEDEC J-STD-020.
