1.5 USING THE DEVELOPMENT BOARD OUT OF THE BOX
Although intended as a development platform, the XLP 8-bit board may also be used
directly from the box as a demonstration platform for the preprogrammed
PIC18F87K22 microcontroller using the provided PIM.
Refer to Chapter 2. “The XLP Demonstration Application” for details on the
demonstration code operation.
1.6 DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM
The preprogrammed example code on the PIC18F87K22 device as well as the
demonstration program for the PIC16(L)F1947 device is available for download from
the Microchip web site (www.microchip.com/XLP8BitBoard
). All required project files
are provided so that the code may be used as an example or a platform for further
development. These may be used with the included PIC18F87K22 device by
programming the device using any programming tool, such as PICkit™ 3.
