In summary, 32-bit Microchip AVR® UC3 microcontrollers allow the user to push their embedded designs further. Offering low power consumption, higher arithmetic performance and faster communication, they can give the next design a performance boost without increasing power consumption. The added benefits, including Microchip Peripheral Event System, FlashVault™, Sleepwalking™ Peripheral intelligence, give performance a boost. And full support for Microchip QTouch® and Qmatrix® allows system designers to add intuitive, attractive and robust input methods to their design. AVR UC3 is backed by Microchip AVR Studio® 5 and a seamless range of hardware development tools.
