These DSCs are also designed to ease functional safety
certification required by many automotive, medical, and
appliance applications where safe operation and shutdown
in failure situations are critical. To support new automotive
communication standards, the dsPIC33CK family features a
CAN with Flexible Data-Rate (CAN-FD) communication bus.

Learning takes us through a process bit by
bit. You have just learned a little bit about
two smart controllers—one an 8-bit MCU
and the other a 16-bit DSC. But there is no
need to stop there. Microchip Technologies
8-bit microcontrollers remain very cost-
effective for a wide range of high-volume
embedded control applications while their
16-bit and 32-bit microcontrollers provide
higher performance and functionality,
and are generally found in more complex
embedded control applications. With almost
3,000 microcontrollers in their product
portfolio, Microchip Technology is the place
to look for smart controllers.
