1.1 Processor Overview

The PIC32CM LS00 Curiosity Nano+ Touch Evaluation Kit uses the PIC32CM5164LS00048 MCU and its key features are as follows:

  • For performance
    • An entry level Arm® Cortex®-M23
    • picoPower® Technology and sleep modes
  • For security
    • Arm TrustZone technology
    • Hardware crypto (AES256, SHA256, GCM)
    • Immutable secure boot
    • DICE security standard
    • Anti-tamper detection
  • For touch input
    • An ultra-low power and enhanced Peripheral Touch Controller (PTC)
    • Driven shield(+) support for superior water tolerance in self-sensing applications
    • Support for boost mode to increase SNR (noise sustainability) and/or acquisition speed (response time) in mutual sensing applications
