Microchip's top-selling PICDEM Demonstration Board now has an ICD port, LCD read-out, sounder and a temperature sensor. The enhanced PICDEM 2 Plus Demonstration Board provides designers with a tool for immediate programming and debugging flash-based micro-controllers. The board is supplied with software loaded on a PIC18F452 microcontroller to demonstrate the device's features and peripherals. The program also sets up the microcontroller as a realtime clock and measures the local temperature, both of which are displayed on an LCD display. A PWM signal is sent directly to the piezo sounder. There is an active RS-232 port and on-board Serial EEPROM and there is ample room in the generous prototyping area for project development work. A second flash-based microcontroller with its own demonstration program, the PIC16F877, is also included.
Source code is provided allowing users to understand and dissect the programming algorithm. Additionally, users with an MPLAB In-Circuit Debugger 2 can take advantage of the flash-based microcontroller's in-circuit debugger capability by cutting, pasting, rewriting or adding to the program.
The PICDEM 2 Plus Demonstration Board is available separately or as part of the MPLAB ICD 2 Evaluation Kit, which also includes a power supply, serial cable and USB cable.
