Microchip Power Board Visualizer Supporting dsPIC33 DSCs

Our Power Board Visualizer is a flexible Windows^® tool that boosts the monitoring and debugging of embedded systems with a dsPIC33 Digital Signal Controller (DSC). It enables real-time data visualization and control through USB/UART and CAN FD and provides visual elements for in-depth data analysis and tracking system performance. The tool uses effective UART data framing and standard CAN FD framing, which allows for smooth interoperability and makes it crucial for developers using our DSCs. 

Features:

System-Level Data Monitoring

• Real-time performance monitoring 
• Multiple device connections
• Comprehensive system behavior analysis

Multiple Communication Protocol Support

• Seamless CAN FD communication
• Robust UART communication
• Variable-length data frame sending capability

Intuitive Visualization and Data Management

• Multiple GUI elements
• Bit-level data insights
• Capable of handling large data volumes
• Organize GUI elements into various pages/tabs

ASCII Logging Feature

• Terminal-like message sending
• Interpretation of messages as ASCII characters

The demo source code for the embedded device includes a plug-and-play communication layer for easy integration across applications and is compatible with our digital power development boards, dsPIC33 DSC digital power PIMs and other boards.
