Getting Started with PIC32

4.7 DEMONSTRATION, DEVELOPMENT AND EVALUATION BOARDS

A wide variety of demonstration, development and evaluation boards for PIC32 MCUs

allow quick application development on fully functional systems. Most boards include

prototyping areas for adding custom circuitry and provide application firmware and

source code for examination and modification. These boards support a variety of

features, including LEDs, switches, RS-232 interfaces, LCD displays, etc. The

demonstration and development boards can be used in teaching environments, for

prototyping custom circuits and for learning about various microcontroller applications.

Currently, the following boards are available:

1. PIC32MX Starter kit (DM320001).

2. Explorer 16 board (DM240001) with PIC32 Plug-in Modules.
