PIC24FV32KA304 FAMILY
2.0 GUIDELINES FOR GETTING
STARTED WITH 16-BIT
MICROCONTROLLERS
2.1 Basic Connection Requirements
Getting started with the PIC24FV32KA304 family of
16-bit microcontrollers requires attention to a minimal
set of device pin connections before proceeding with
development.
The following pins must always be connected:
•All V
DD
and V
SS
pins
(see Section 2.2 “Power Supply Pins)
•All AV
DD
and AV
SS
pins, regardless of whether or
not the analog device features are used
(see Section 2.2 “Power Supply Pins)
•MCLR
pin
(see Section 2.3 “Master Clear (MCLR) Pin”)
•V
CAP
pins
(see Section 2.4 “Voltage Regulator Pin (V
CAP
)”)
These pins must also be connected if they are being
used in the end application:
PGECx/PGEDx pins used for In-Circuit Serial
Programming™ (ICSP™) and debugging purposes
(see Section 2.5 “ICSP Pins”)
OSCI and OSCO pins when an external oscillator
source is used
(see Section 2.6 “External Oscillator Pins”)
Additionally, the following pins may be required:
•V
REF
+/V
REF
- pins are used when external voltage
reference for analog modules is implemented
The minimum mandatory connections are shown in
Figure 2-1.
FIGURE 2-1: RECOMMENDED
MINIMUM CONNECTIONS
Note: The AV
DD
and AV
SS
pins must always be
connected, regardless of whether any of
the analog modules are being used.

Note 1:
See

The example shown is for a PIC24F device
with five V

pairs.
Other devices may have more or less pairs;
adjust the number of decoupling capacitors
appropriately.

Some PIC24F K parts do not have a
regulator.
