The dsPIC33EPXXXGP50X, dsPIC33EPXXXMC20X/50X 
and PIC24EPXXXGP/MC20X family devices that you 
have received conform functionally to the current Device 
Data Sheet (DS70000657H), except for the anomalies 
described in this document. 
The silicon issues discussed in the following pages are 
for silicon revisions with the Device and Revision IDs 
listed in 
. The silicon issues are summarized in 
The errata described in this document will be 
addressed in future revisions of 
dsPIC33EPXXXGP50X, dsPIC33EPXXXMC20X/50X 
and PIC24EPXXXGP/MC20X silicon.
Data Sheet clarifications and corrections start on 
, following the discussion of silicon issues.
The silicon revision level can be identified using the 
current version of MPLAB
®
 IDE and Microchip’s 
programmers, debuggers and emulation tools, which 
are available at the Microchip corporate web site 
(
www.microchip.com
).
For example, to identify the silicon revision level using 
MPLAB IDE in conjunction with MPLAB ICD 3 or 
PICkit™ 3:
1.
Using the appropriate interface, connect the device 
to the MPLAB ICD 3 programmer/debugger or 
PICkit 3.
2.
From the main menu in MPLAB IDE, select 
Configure>Select Device, and then select the 
target part number in the dialog box.
3.
Select the MPLAB hardware tool 
(Debugger>Select Tool).
4.
Perform a “Connect” operation to the device 
(Debugger>Connect). Depending on the devel-
opment tool used, the part number and Device 
Revision ID value appear in the Output window.
The Device and Revision ID values for the various 
silicon revisions are shown in 
Note:
This document summarizes all silicon 
errata issues from all revisions of silicon, 
previous as well as current. The current 
silicon revision levels are:

dsPIC33/PIC24EP32: A3
dsPIC33/PIC24EP64: A2, A3, A8
dsPIC33/PIC24EP128: A3, A8
dsPIC33/PIC24EP256: A3
dsPIC33/PIC24EP512: A7

“N/A” indicates that the device family is 
not released, or that the particular silicon 
issue does not apply to this family.
Note:
If you are unable to extract the silicon 
revision level, please contact your local 
Microchip sales office for assistance.
