Win a PIC32 starter kit

13 November 2013 News

Dataweek is offering readers the chance to win an MPLAB Starter Kit for PIC32MX1XX/2XX (DM320013) from Microchip. The kit is a complete hardware and software tool suite for exploring applications based upon Microchip’s new low-cost, high-performance PIC32MX1/MX2 microcontrollers (MCU).

The devices provide 61 DMIPS of performance in packages as small as 5 x 5 mm, for space-constrained and cost-sensitive designs. They are the smallest and lowest-cost in the PIC32 range, and are the first PIC32 MCUs to feature dedicated audio and capacitive-sensing peripherals. These latest devices also feature USB On-the-Go (OTG) capabilities, making them ideal for developing audio accessories and other applications in the consumer, industrial, medical and automotive markets.

The MPLAB Starter Kit is ideal for development of basic user interfaces with mTouch buttons and high-quality audio. The board is pre-loaded with demo code for an audio player. Features include 24-bit audio playback, integrated programmer/debugger, USB power, 2” colour TFT display (220 x 176 pixel), mTouch slider and buttons, PIC32MX250F128 with 128 KB of Flash and 32 KB RAM, and Micro SD Flash card.
