Microchip is offering its new PICDEM 4 Demonstration Board that it says helps engineers to evaluate and demonstrate the advanced capabilities of the company's low pin-count PICmicro Flash microcontrollers.
The PICDEM 4 offers multiple socket options for immediate programming and debugging of 8-, 14-, and 18-pin PIC12F, PIC16F and PIC18F microcontrollers. The board demonstrates many of the features of low pin-count parts, including Local Interconnect Network and motor control capability using the enhanced capture/compare/PWM module. Low-power operation is achieved with a supercapacitor circuit and jumpers allow the on-board hardware to be disabled to eliminate current draw.
The demo board also includes provision for crystal, RC or canned oscillator modes and a 5 V regulator for use with a 9 V supply, or hooks for a 5 V, 100 mA regulated DC supply. Additional features include an RS232 interface, an EEPROM footprint, 2x16 liquid crystal display, PCB footprints for an H-Bridge motor driver, LIN transceiver, and a connector for programming via In-Circuit Serial Programming technology and developing with the MPLAB ICD 2 in-circuit debugger.
The demonstration board (DM163014) includes two PICmicro Flash microcontrollers and a CD-ROM containing sample programs, application notes and user guide.
