Coffee Break | S13E2 | AVR® and PIC® MCU Low-Power Capabilities

Our PIC® and AVR® microcontrollers (MCUs) enable low-power embedded applications. We will discuss flexible signal routing, core independent peripherals and the innovative Analog Peripheral Manager (APM). Learn how these features can help you overcome design challenges and streamline your next design.

Why do you offer two different products? Why isn't there a single 8-bit device?

[@MicrochipTechnology]

Hi there, thanks for your question. Microchip offers both PIC and AVR 8-bit microcontrollers because each line has distinct advantages that cater to different application needs and design preferences. PIC microcontrollers are known for their robust peripheral integration and ease of use, particularly in industrial and automotive applications. AVR microcontrollers, on the other hand, are favored for their efficient code execution and performance in consumer electronics and hobbyist projects. Hope this helps!
