What is a Digital Signal Controller?
Powerful 16-bit MCU:
The dsPIC30F family of devices
executes most of its instructions in
1 cycle (33 ns at 30 MIPS). Combine
this high instruction throughput with
true DSP capabilities, such as single
cycle 16-bit multiply and zero overhead
looping, and you have the most powerful
16-bit MCU at your command.
Looking to Add DSP?
If you are one of the many MCU users
looking to add DSP features to your
system, chances are you don’t like your
choices. Adding a DSP chip to your
existing MCU-based system can be
costly and complicated. The dsPIC30F
is designed to look and feel like an
MCU. Adding DSP functionality in the
familiar controller-like environment can
be accomplished with ease.
A Digital Signal Controller (DSC) is a single-chip, embedded controller that
seamlessly integrates the control attributes of a Microcontroller (MCU) with
the computation and throughput capabilities of a Digital Signal Processor (DSP)
in a single core.
Microchip’s dsPIC
16-bit MCU: fast, sophisticated and flexible interrupt handling; a wide array of
digital and analog peripheral functions; power management; flexible clocking
options; power-on-reset; brown-out protection; watchdog timer; code security;
full-speed real-time emulation; and full-speed in-circuit debug solutions.
By skillfully adding DSP capability to a powerful 16-bit MCU, Microchip’s
dsPIC30F family of dsPIC DSCs achieves the best of both worlds and marks
the beginning of a new era in embedded control.
The Capability You Need
®
DSC offers everything you would expect from a powerful
Reliable Flash:
The dsPIC30F incorporates Microchip’s
PEEC Flash process technology with
data retention of 40+ years at 85° C,
endurance of 1 million cycles typical
at 85° C and fast programming time.
There is no better Flash technology for
embedded control.
Additionally, the dsPIC30F can securely
self-program its own Flash memory in a
finished product.
DSP for the DSP Expert!
A seasoned DSP developer will
be amazed at the capabilities the
dsPIC30F family offers — everything
you expect from a DSP of its class:
dual 40-bit accumulators, single-cycle
16 x 16 MAC, 40-bit barrel shifter,
dual operand fetches, saturation and
rounding modes and DO and REPEAT
loops. Then we added a few items
usually missing from DSPs: flexible
interrupts, large register sets, a
watchdog timer, clock fail detect and
real-time emulation to name a few.
1st Generation DSC
Optimized C Compiler:
The dsPIC30F architecture was co-
developed by our MPLAB® C30 C
Compiler team. The result is a high C
code efficiency when compared to any
16-bit MCU or DSP .
C code benchmarks show that competitive
16-bit MCUs require up to double the
amount of program code space for the
same application program written in C.
Considering a 32-bit MCU?
Considering a 32-bit controller because
your current MCU has run out of steam?
The dsPIC30F with integrated DSP can
outperform a 32-bit controller in many
applications. Our outstanding C code
efficiency for 32-bit data type reduces
memory requirements and cost.
Future dsPIC30F variants with larger
program memory are in development to
give you a long-term roadmap with the
dsPIC DSC architecture.
