Getting Started

2.3.1 Attaching the PIM

To attach the PIM:

1. Seat the PIM in the 80-pin, elevated, male connectors that encircle the

PIC18F8722 (see Figure 2-5).

FIGURE 2-5: PIM CONNECTORS AND S4 SWITCH

Alternately, an In-Circuit Emulator (ICE) can be attached to the male connectors.

This enables in-circuit emulation and user development and debugging of code.

For information on this use, see the Microchip web site (http://microchip.com

2. To designate the PIM-mounted device as the main microcontroller, set Switch S4

(shown in Figure 2-5) to ICE (see Figure 2-6).

3. If you are converting from the board’s default V

DD of 5V, see “Varying the

Device Voltage (5V/3.3V)” on page 14.
