Product details
Overview
AC164331 from Microchip Technology is a dsPIC33FJ64GP710-based development board designed for rapid prototyping of 16-bit digital signal controller applications. It features 64 KB Flash, dual 12-bit ADCs (32-channel, 8-sample/hold), 9×16-bit timers, 8 PWM channels, 2 UARTs, 2 SPI, and 2 I²C interfaces - all operating at 40 MIPS in 3.0–3.6 V systems. It supports motor control, power conversion, and sensor interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the AC164331 datasheet, AC164331 pinout, AC164331 application, or AC164331 equivalent, this page delivers verified hardware specifications, functional architecture context, real-world use cases, and direct alternative evaluation options aligned with Microchip's dsPIC33F GP family roadmap.
Technical Context
The AC164331 implements the dsPIC33FJ64GP710 MCU - a 40 MIPS, 16-bit DSC with dual independent 12-bit A/D converters (configurable up to 2.2 Msps aggregate), eight 16-bit PWM generators with complementary outputs, and integrated QEI and UART/SPI/I²C peripherals. Its memory map includes 64 KB Flash, 16 KB RAM, and self-write EEPROM capability.
It targets deterministic real-time control tasks requiring simultaneous analog acquisition, high-resolution timing, and serial communication - such as closed-loop PMSM/BLDC motor drives, digital power supply regulation, and industrial sensor fusion nodes. The board integrates on-board debugging via ICSP™ and USB-to-UART bridge, enabling seamless MPLAB® X IDE integration without external tools.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the AC164331 development board?
The AC164331 is a fully assembled and tested evaluation platform built around the dsPIC33FJ64GP710 microcontroller. Its primary function is to enable rapid firmware development, peripheral validation, and system-level testing for 16-bit digital signal control applications - especially those involving motor control, power conversion, and multi-sensor data acquisition. The AC164331 includes onboard debug circuitry, power regulation, and standardized I/O headers to reduce time-to-first-code.
Does the AC164331 support in-circuit debugging without external hardware?
Yes, the AC164331 supports full in-circuit debugging via its integrated USB-to-UART bridge and ICSP™ programming header. When connected to a PC via USB, it appears as a virtual COM port and works natively with MPLAB® X IDE for programming, real-time variable monitoring, and breakpoint-based debugging - eliminating the need for separate PICkit™ or ICD hardware during early-stage development. This capability is intrinsic to the AC164331 design and requires no additional adapters.
Which microcontroller is mounted on the AC164331 board?
The AC164331 board is populated with the dsPIC33FJ64GP710-I/PT - a 100-pin TQFP-packaged 16-bit digital signal controller featuring 64 KB Flash, 16 KB RAM, dual 12-bit ADCs (32-channel, 8 S/H), nine 16-bit timers, eight PWM modules, two UARTs, two SPIs, and two I²C interfaces. All documented electrical and functional characteristics of the dsPIC33FJ64GP710 apply directly to the AC164331 hardware implementation.
Can the AC164331 be used for CAN-based applications?
No, the AC164331 does not include CAN transceiver circuitry or dedicated CAN physical layer support. While the underlying dsPIC33FJ64GP710 MCU lacks an on-chip ECAN™ module (unlike dsPIC33FJxxMCxxx or dsPIC33EPxxx devices), the AC164331 board provides no external CAN driver or termination. For CAN development, Microchip recommends the AC164332 (dsPIC33FJ128MC804-based) or AC164333 (dsPIC33EP512MU810-based) evaluation boards instead.
What software tools are required to develop firmware for the AC164331?
To develop firmware for the AC164331, you must use Microchip's MPLAB® X Integrated Development Environment (IDE) with the XC16 C compiler. The board is fully supported by MPLAB® Code Configurator (MCC) for peripheral initialization and HAL generation. No third-party toolchains or license fees are required - all essential software components are freely downloadable from microchip.com. Debugging and programming are handled through the native USB interface without proprietary drivers beyond standard CDC ACM class support.
