Microchip PIC24FJ256DA Microcontrollers
Microchip Technology launched the PIC24FJ256DA microcontroller family. The eight-member MCU family integrates three graphics acceleration units, a display controller, and 96 Kbytes of RAM. All eight members of the PIC24FJ256DA family are available now for sampling and volume production, starting at $4.14 each in 10,000-unit quantities. The PIC24FJ128DA106, PIC24FJ256DA106, PIC24FJ128DA206 and PIC24FJ256DA206 MCUs are available in 64-pin TQFP and QFN packages. The PIC24FJ128DA110, PIC24FJ256DA110, PIC24FJ128DA210 and PIC24FJ256DA210 MCUs are available in 100-pin TQFP and 121-pin BGA packages.
