64/80-PIN TQFP DEMO BOARD


  • PIC18F8720, 128K Flash, 80-pin TQFP microcontroller
  • Full pin break out for easy wire wrap/prototyping
  • 20 MHz crystal oscillator
  • Convenient connection for the MPLAB ICD 2 (In-Circuit Debugger) for in-circuit programming and debugging
  • Power supply connector and 5V voltage regulator (requires a standard 9-12V power supply, sold separately)
  • Potentiometer (connected to 10-bit A/D, analog input channel)
  • Temperature sensor demo included (illustrates Microchip’s award winning TC74 device)
  • 8 LEDs (connected to PORTD with jumper disable)
  • RS-232 port (9 pin D type connector, UART1)
  • Reset button
  • Bootloader button
  • Prototyping area
  • Serial bootloader ready (AN851)
  • 20 MHz clock (crystal)

Overview


This low cost demo board is the ideal complement to the MPLAB® ICD 2 In Circuit Debugger for users who wants to evaluate the performance of Microchip high-end PIC18F 8-bit microcontrollers.

Since the PIC18F8720 contains a superset of all the memory and peripherals available in the entire 64- and 80-pin PIC18FXX20 family, this board can be used to demonstrate the following devices: PIC18F8720, PIC18F8620, PIC18F8520, PIC18F6720, PIC18F6620 and PIC18F6520.

This board will also be available for demonstrating the following devices (sharing a compatible pin out): PIC18F8680, PIC18F8585, PIC18F8621, PIC18F6680, PIC18F6585 and PIC18F6621

There are a number of web seminars that deal with these devices and this demo board. Click here to go to the web seminar archives.
