4.4 SETUP AND CONFIGURATION

The PIC24FJ256DA210 Development Board has been designed with a wide range of

hardware options. These allow the user to evaluate the entire range of the microcon-

troller’s features, include user-defined inputs, explore the range of graphics options,

and incorporate USB connectivity options.

To maintain flexibility, many of the board’s hardware options are configured using stan-

dard jumpers. In a few cases, modifying the board at several locations (by the addition

or removal of resistors) may also be required. Details of the configuration options and

how to select them are provided in the following sections. A list of the development

board’s configuration jumpers is provided in Table 4-1; their corresponding locations

are shown in Figure 4-2.
