=== PIC64 ===
Microchip's PIC64 products use the PIC trademark, but have a completely different architecture, and are described here only briefly.

In July 2024, Microchip introduced the PIC64 series of high-performance multi-core [[microprocessor]]s. The series will initially use the [[RISC-V]] instruction set, however Microchip is also planning versions with [[ARM Cortex-A]] cores.<ref>{{Cite press release |last=anisha |title=Microchip starts 64bit PIC64 family with RISC-V |publisher=RISC-V International |date=12 July 2024 |url=https://riscv.org/news/2024/07/microchip-starts-64bit-pic64-family-with-risc-v-2/ |access-date=2024-07-24 |language=en-US}}</ref> The PIC64 series will include the PIC64GX line, which focuses on intelligent edge applications, and the PIC64-HPSC line, which is [[Radiation hardening|radiation-hardened]] and focuses on spaceflight applications.<ref>{{Cite press release |title=Microchip Unveils 64-Bit Multi-Core PIC64 Portfolio |first=James |last=Lewis |date=9 July 2024 |url=https://www.hackster.io/news/microchip-unveils-64-bit-multi-core-pic64-portfolio-672ff16bd042 |access-date=2024-07-24 |publisher=Microchip |via=Hackster.io |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{cite press release |title=Moog Unveils New, Radiation-Hardened Space Computer to Support the Next Generation of High-Speed Computing On-Orbit |publisher=[[Moog Inc.]] |date=13 August 2024 |url=https://spacenews.com/moog-unveils-new-radiation-hardened-space-computer-to-support-the-next-generation-of-high-speed-computing-on-orbit/ |via=[[SpaceNews]]}}</ref>
