A development must-have!

I used this board all the time. It's nice for protoboard or even breadboard projects. I flipped the connectors around from the photo shown and just plug it into some .1in SIP connectors. That way if the project becomes unused or I want to go a different direction I just pull this board off and use it elsewhere. They're also cheap enough to leave in place. Perfect when you want something more than a few LEDs to test out a PIC or you just have a 1 or 2 unit prototype to build.

I've attached a photo to see it in action controlling a stepper driver.

A Non-Obvious Application

This board is great for development, but it's handy in another way...

Say you have an existing board with a PIC in a socket, you want to modify or otherwise hack the software, and the board does not have ICSP (In Circuit Serial Programming). You can take this kit and instead of using the provided DIP socket, install a long leaded or wirewrap socket. Then you can plug this board into the PIC socket of your target board, plug you PIC into the socket on this board, and you have just added ICSP to your target.

What's more, if you're designing a board, you can use this as I outlined above and not include the ICSP parts on your design (saving BOM costs and PCB area).

Note: Of course this presumes the ICSP lines on the target or your design are set up to allow in circuit programming.

Nice and handy kit! Recommended!
