26.14 PICSTART Plus Development
Programmer
The PICSTART Plus development programmer is an
easy-to-use, low-cost, prototype programmer. It con-
nects to the PC via a COM (RS-232) port. MPLAB
Integrated Development Environment software makes
using the programmer simple and efficient. The
PICSTART Plus development programmer supports
most PICmicro devices up to 40 pins. Larger pin count
devices, such as the PIC16C92X and PIC17C76X,
may be supported with an adapter socket. The
PICSTART Plus development programmer is CE
compliant.
26.15 PICDEM 1 PICmicro
Demonstration Board
The PICDEM 1 demonstration board demonstrates the
capabilities
of
the
PIC16C5X
(PIC16C54
to
PIC16C58A),
PIC16C61,
PIC16C62X,
PIC16C71,
PIC16C8X, PIC17C42, PIC17C43 and PIC17C44. All
necessary hardware and software is included to run
basic demo programs. The sample microcontrollers
provided with the PICDEM 1 demonstration board can
be programmed with a PRO MATE II device program-
mer or a PICSTART Plus development programmer.
The PICDEM 1 demonstration board can be connected
to the MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulator for testing. A
prototype area extends the circuitry for additional appli-
cation components. Features include an RS-232
interface, a potentiometer for simulated analog input,
push button switches and eight LEDs.
26.16 PICDEM.net Internet/Ethernet
Demonstration Board
The PICDEM.net demonstration board is an Internet/
Ethernet demonstration board using the PIC18F452
microcontroller and TCP/IP firmware. The board
supports any 40-pin DIP device that conforms to the
standard
pinout
used
by
the
PIC16F877
or
PIC18C452. This kit features a user friendly TCP/IP
stack, web server with HTML, a 24L256 Serial
EEPROM for Xmodem download to web pages into
Serial EEPROM, ICSP/MPLAB ICD 2 interface con-
nector, an Ethernet interface, RS-232 interface and a
16 x 2 LCD display. Also included is the book and
CD-ROM “TCP/IP Lean, Web Servers for Embedded
Systems,” by Jeremy Bentham
26.17 PICDEM 2 Plus
Demonstration Board
The PICDEM 2 Plus demonstration board supports
many 18, 28 and 40-pin microcontrollers, including
PIC16F87X and PIC18FXX2 devices. All the neces-
sary hardware and software is included to run the dem-
onstration programs. The sample microcontrollers
provided with the PICDEM 2 demonstration board can
be programmed with a PRO MATE II device program-
mer, PICSTART Plus development programmer, or
MPLAB ICD 2 with a Universal Programmer Adapter.
The MPLAB ICD 2 and MPLAB ICE in-circuit emulators
may also be used with the PICDEM 2 demonstration
board to test firmware. A prototype area extends the
circuitry for additional application components. Some
of the features include an RS-232 interface, a 2 x 16
LCD display, a piezo speaker, an on-board temperature
sensor, four LEDs and sample PIC18F452 and
PIC16F877 Flash microcontrollers.
26.18 PICDEM 3 PIC16C92X
Demonstration Board
The PICDEM 3 demonstration board supports the
PIC16C923 and PIC16C924 in the PLCC package. All
the necessary hardware and software is included to run
the demonstration programs.
26.19 PICDEM 4 8/14/18-Pin
Demonstration Board
The PICDEM 4 can be used to demonstrate the capa-
bilities of the 8, 14 and 18-pin PIC16XXXX and
PIC18XXXX MCUs, including the PIC16F818/819,
PIC16F87/88, PIC16F62XA and the PIC18F1320
family of microcontrollers. PICDEM 4 is intended to
showcase the many features of these low pin count
parts, including LIN and Motor Control using ECCP.
Special provisions are made for low-power operation
with the supercapacitor circuit and jumpers allow on-
board hardware to be disabled to eliminate current
draw in this mode. Included on the demo board are pro-
visions for Crystal, RC or Canned Oscillator modes, a
five volt regulator for use with a nine volt wall adapter
or battery, DB-9 RS-232 interface, ICD connector for
programming via ICSP and development with MPLAB
ICD 2, 2 x 16 liquid crystal display, PCB footprints for
H-Bridge motor driver, LIN transceiver and EEPROM.
Also included are: header for expansion, eight LEDs,
four potentiometers, three push buttons and a proto-
typing area. Included with the kit is a PIC16F627A and
a PIC18F1320. Tutorial firmware is included along with
the User’s Guide.
