PEP and Debug Header Specification

AC162083
Header Identification
The AC number is used for ordering the Processor Extension Pak, which contains the
debug header. However, this number is not on the header, as the board may be used
for multiple headers by inserting different -ICE/-ICD devices. To identify this header,
use the following information.
Header Setup and Operation
Test points are available on this header to check the following: Ground (TP1), VDD
(TP2), ICD Clock (TP3), ICD Data (TP4) and ICD MCLR/V
PP (TP5).
Also, see the AC162083 Insert (DS51693).
POTENTIAL ISSUES
HV device selected instead of F device
If you inadvertently select a shunt regulator (HV) device and attempt to use it in a target
board designed for a non-shunt regulator (F) device, the shunt may draw excessive
current due to the lack of current-limiting circuitry on the target board and damage the
device mounted on the header.
F device selected instead of HV device
If you inadvertently select a non-shunt regulator (F) device and attempt to use it in a
target board designed for a shunt regulator (HV) device, the device may draw exces-
sive current due to the higher voltage used on a target board designed for HV devices
and damage the device mounted on the header.

CAUTION
Header damage.
Incorrect rotary switch (Figure 2-9) settings can irreparably
damage the header. Ensure rotary switch settings are cor-
rect (Tab le 3 ) before powering or connecting the header. Do
not change the rotary switch setting while the header is
powered or connected to a debug tool. Do not power shunt
regulator (HV) devices from the debug tool.
