Microchip has announced the availability of a PIC32 microcontroller-based development kit through Digilent.
The Digilent Cerebot 32MX7 development kit addresses the growing interest in embedded control and networking applications from academics and hobbyists, by helping them to learn about microcontrollers and to solve real problems.
The kit includes a demonstration board with a 10/100-T Ethernet interface, dual CAN and I²C interfaces, the ability to use Digilent Pmod peripheral modules, and an integrated programming/debugging circuit that is compatible with Microchip’s free MPLAB IDE. Example applications include university embedded systems and communications classes, senior capstone projects and numerous other academic and hobbyist projects.
The Cerebot 32MX7 board features numerous I/O connectors and power supply options such as USB power, which give users the flexibility to use the board for a range of embedded networking and control applications. The onboard PIC32 MCU operates at 80 MHz, and features 512 KB of Flash program memory and 128 KB of RAM, as well as peripherals such as a full speed USB on-the-go (OTG)/host/device controller, Ethernet controller, dual CAN controllers, timer/counters, serial interface controllers, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and more.
The Cerebot 32MX7 board combines three pushbuttons, four LEDs, Ethernet, CAN and I²C bus connectors, and six connectors for Digilent Pmod peripheral modules, including H-bridges, ADCs, DACs, RF transceivers, speakers and switches, as well as converters for easy connection to RS232, servo motors and more.
