Win a Microchip Explorer 16/32 development kit

9 November 2016 News

Dataweek is offering readers the chance to win an Explorer 16/32 development kit from Microchip Technology. The kit is a flexible, convenient and ready-to-start development, demonstration and testing platform for 16-bit PIC24 MCUs, dsPIC DSCs and 32-bit PIC32 MCUs.

The new kit contains the Explorer 16/32 development board for designing with 16-bit and 32-bit PIC microcontrollers, which is offered at a lower cost than Microchip’s popular Explorer 16 development board and comes with an integrated programmer/debugger and several new features that address the latest embedded systems design needs. The board provides a flexible, convenient and easy-to-start tool while being backwards compatible to the classic Explorer 16 board.

The Explorer 16/32 development kit (DM240001-3) includes the main Explorer 16/32 development board as well as a PIC24FJ1024GB610 plug-in module (MA240023) and two USB cables. The plug-in-module features a 16-bit PIC24FJ1024GB610 microcontroller with 1 MB Flash, a superset of memory and functions for the lower-power PIC24F family. This kit with PIM and cables is priced at $109,99. For an out-of-the-box experience, the Explorer 16/32 development kit comes with all the necessary components to get started with the evaluation and prototyping right away.
