microcontrollers
The board contains eight DIP sockets: DIP40, DIP28, DIP20, DIP18A, DIP18B, DIP14,
DIP8 and support for PIC10F MCUs. With dual power supply and smart on-board
mikroProg, board is capable of programming over 250 microcontrollers from PIC10F,
PIC12F, PIC16F, PIC16Enh, PIC18F, PIC18FJ and PIC18FK families.
There are two DIP18 sockets for PIC microcontrollers provided on the board - DIP18A
and DIP18B. Which of these sockets you will use depends solely on the pinout of
the microcontroller in use. The EasyPIC
™
v7 development system comes with the
PIC18F45K22 microcontroller in a DIP40 package.

VCAP jumpers explained
Some PIC16F, PIC18FK and all PIC18FJ microcontrollers have cores that work
on 1.8V-2.5V voltage range, and peripherals that work with 3.3V and 5V
voltages. Internally, those microcontrollers have power regulators, which adjust
the core voltage levels. In order for those devices to have a stable operation of
the core, manufacturer recommends that decoupling capacitive lters should
be provided, and connected between specic microcontroller pins designated
with VCAP and GND. EasyPIC v7 board provides jumpers which are used for this
purpose. Here is list of devices that require jumpers placed in VCAP position:
VCAP position when using PIC16F724/16F727
VCAP position for PIC18F44J10 and PIC18F45J10
VCAP for PIC18F24J10, PIC18F25J10 PIC18F2XJ50, PIC18F2XJ11
VCAP for PIC16F722, PIC16F723, PIC16F726
IMPORTANT:
If you do not place VCAP jumper for the MCUs that need it,
you might experience some instabilities in program execution.
IMPORTANT: When using PIC18F2331 or PIC18F2431 microcontrollers it is necessary
to place J20 jumper, in order to route VCC power line to RA5 pin (Figure 4-1)
