Microchip Technology dsPIC33A Curiosity Platform Development Board

Microchip Technology dsPIC33A Curiosity Platform Development Board (EV74H48A) demonstrates the capabilities of the dsPIC33A Digital Signal Controller (DSC) family. This board requires the insertion of a 120-pin general-purpose Dual In-Line Module (DIM) containing a dsPIC33A DSC device. The dsPIC33A development board interface includes one RGB LED, a 10KΩ potentiometer, three push buttons, eight LEDs, and three capacitive touch pads. This board consists of a PICkit™ on-board (PKOB4) programmer/ debugger circuit, which is used to program and debug any dsPIC33A target device attached through DIM connector. The dsPIC33A board supports custom feature expansion by providing mikroBUS™ and Xplained Pro interfaces.
