Generation Robot:
As a leader in microcontroller, mixed signal, analog and Flash IP solutions, Microchip Technology Inc. is well-positioned to deliver the innovation required to not only keep pace with, but to lead in the burgeoning field of robotics.
As the series Generation Robot depicts so well, the future of robotics is multi-faceted and likely filled with surprising developments, developments that Microchip Technology is working on today. Here are some current examples of leading Microchip products ideal for robotic applications:
Microchip offers a full lineup of microcontrollers and digital signal controllers (DSC) for robotics applications, ranging from low-cost 8-bit devices to high-performance 32-bit devices. The 16-bit dsPIC® DSC core includes DSP instructions for precise control. Microchip also supports a broad portfolio of ARM Cortex M0, M4, and M7-based products, as well as the MIP-based PIC32MK series.

SAM4S ARM® Cortex®-M4 Flash MCU
SAM4S ARM Cortex-M4 Flash Microcontrollers (MCUs) extend the Microchip Cortex-M portfolio to offer increased performance and power efficiency and higher memory densities with up to 2MB of Flash and 160KB of SRAM.

dsPIC33EV 16-Bit Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs)
dsPIC33EV 16-Bit Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs) features a 5V 70 MIPS dsPIC® DSC core with enhanced on-chip features and is ideal for operating in harsh environments.
Microchip wireless technologies enable innovative, scalable, dedicated designs that fit small footprints, consume very little power, and operate in rugged environments—indoors or outdoors. Convenience, security, reliability, and power efficiency drive wireless application requirements. You can rely on Microchip to help you design cost-effective, highly-reliable wireless products.
