Why use DSPICs
Developing for the dsPIC (Digital Signal Power Integrated Controller) family by Microchip represents a specialized frontier in embedded systems. It effectively bridges the gap between a traditional Microcontroller (MCU) and a high-performance Digital Signal Processor (DSP).
Common Applications
| Field | Usage |
| Motor Control | Sensored or sensorless Brushless DC (BLDC) motors and Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM). |
| Power Conversion | Digital Switched-Mode Power Supplies (SMPS), Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS), and Solar Inverters. |
| Automotive | Electronic power steering, active suspension, and sensor fusion. |
| Speech/Audio | Noise cancellation, speech recognition, and high-fidelity audio filtering. |
