EduMic (Previously called EduPIC) is a tool set for the development of Microchip's PIC® microcontroller based projects. It is a trainer board for PIC® microcontrollers. The main components are the development board and the programming software. This is the second version of the EduMic board with some new features and fixes. The PIC MCUs can be programmed on board. It supports 12, 16 and 18 families. |
Features:
It is prepared to support PIC microcontroller families 12, 16 and 18 (DIP packages of 8, 18, 28 and 40 pins)
On board programming of PIC microcontroller family 16 and 18 supporting ICSP (In Circuit Serial Programming) which are most of them. Programming is performed through the parallel port with software that supports W95, W98, NT, W2000, WMe, XP and Linux.
The programming software is also included. It is able to program many devices of the 16 and 18 families. The board also allows the using of IC-Prog which is another software for board programming which also accepts many PIC microcontrollers.
One programming switch is provided to not interfere with peripherals during programming.
Alphanumeric standard LCD with 2x16 characters.
Matrix keyboard with 4x4 keys.
Four integrated analogue sources:
2 lineal trimmers (0-5 V)
1 temperature sensor.
1 light sensor.
One resistor is provided to heat the temperature sensor.
LED bar with a line of 8 leds.
One single 7-segment display.
Set of four 7-segment display connected to a single BCD to 7-segment driver.
5 digital inputs selectable (0/1) by switch.
Analogue or digital common inputs selectable thanks to three state switches (Analogue/Free/Digital). These switches allow disconnection of individual digital or analogue inputs.
I2C bus peripherals:
PCF8582: E2PROM memory with 256 bytes.
Serial RS232 connection, driver and interface.
USB interface (only for PIC microcontrollers supporting USB).
Press Button to generate external interrupt (INT).
Individual enable switches for each peripheral on the board.
Individual connectors for I2C lines, analogue inputs and outputs of the I2C bus, PWM (RC1 and RC2), external interrupt and external timer0 clock (T0K).
Two extra IDC 26 pin connectors provide access to any signal of the on board PIC microcontroller. First connector provides all signals of PIC MCUs up to 28 pins, while second connector adds the extra lines of larger PIC microcontrollers.
Power is provided by an external unfiltered source. Any power source (AC or DC) providing more than 15 V (limited to 30 V) is ok. It is possible to use two 9V batteries.
