The PICmicro development board is designed for learning how to program PICmicro applications and for developing PICmicro-based projects. This flexible development board allows you to learn both how to program PICmicro microcontrollers as well as to program a range of 8, 18, 28, and 40 pin devices. It ships with an 18-pin PIC16F88 device already installed. All programming software is included in the 'PPP' utility supplied with this board. The board ships with USB cable included. Optional self-study PIC training courses, which utilize this board, are available on CD-ROM for Assembly, C language, and Flowcode. These sets of self-study PIC training courses require no other software - all PIC compilers and development environments are included on the CDs themselves. See below for bundle pricing options on purchases of the board and one of these tutorial CD-ROMs. Ports C and D of the PICmicro MCU are fed out to 9-way D-type connectors which can be used to attach E-Blocks boards. More than two dozen E-Blocks are available, from simple LED and switch boards to more complex subassemblies like Bluetooth boards, CAN bus, internet boards, IrDA transceivers, etc., allowing you to develop a wide range of electronic systems. Also included on the board are two BTA connectors for attaching a wide range of analog and digital sensors, from simple temperature probes to heart rate monitors. A standard USB cable is included to connect this board to a PC. The board can program Low Voltage Programmable PICmicro MCUs and deliver a limited amount of power using only the USB supply, but an optional power supply is recommended for full functionality. ZIF sockets can be used on this board if required. However, you may need to insert one or more turned-pin DIL sockets to achieve adequate height for some ZIF sockets to clear surrounding components.

The board also features two 40-pin expansion headers. One of these (J5) can be used to add additional E-blocks ports by connecting the E-blocks Adapter Board via a 40-pin IDC cable. The PIC In-Circuit Programmer The included PPP software is a highly functional utility for managing the HEX code that is sent into your PICmicro microcontroller. ASCII-encoded and HEX files generated by Microchip’s MPASM, or by the above-mentioned CD-ROM tutorials, can be sent to a device using PPP. PPP uses a simple user interface which is explained in the accompanying help file. It also allows you to change the settings for your PICmicro in terms of the oscillator options, code protection, watchdog and brownout enable/disable, etc. Minimum System Requirements Pentium 100MHz, USB port, 2 Megabytes of hard drive space, 16 Megabytes of RAM, Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP.
