Unleash Your Imagination with Versatility

PICDEV BASE is engineered to be your go-to development board for various Microchip PIC microcontrollers, including the 6-pin PIC10F, 8-pin PIC12F, 14-pin PIC16F, 18-pin PIC16F, 28-pin PIC16F, and 40-pin PIC16F series. This versatility ensures that you have the right platform for any PIC project, from the simplest to the most complex.

User-Friendly Design for Seamless Exploration

We understand that every great project starts with simplicity and ease of use. That's why PICDEV BASE comes with user-friendly features that make experimenting with PIC microcontrollers a breeze:

1. Color-Coded Header Connectors: No more guesswork! Each header connector is equipped with its own color sticker, making it effortless to identify and connect the pins correctly. This feature is perfect for beginners who are just starting their microcontroller journey.

2. Included Jumper Cables: We've included 10 high-quality 10cm male-male jumper cables, so you can jump right into your projects without worrying about sourcing additional components.

3. Prototyping Soldering Area: Explore beyond the microcontroller! PICDEV BASE features a dedicated prototyping soldering area, allowing you to expand your projects, create custom circuits, or attach a mini breadboard for added flexibility.

Power Your Projects Your Way

PICDEV BASE gives you the freedom to choose how you want to power your experiments:

1. PICKIT ICSP: If you prefer in-circuit programming and debugging, simply connect your PICKIT programmer to the dedicated ICSP header.

2. USB Type-C: Conveniently power your board via USB Type-C, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices and power sources.

3. Barrel Jack with Voltage Regulation: For external power sources, utilize the barrel jack input, backed by a built-in 5 Volt voltage regulator for stable and reliable performance.

Explore and Experiment with Confidence

To facilitate your learning and experimentation, PICDEV BASE includes a suite of components and features:

1. LEDs: Get visual feedback with three built-in LEDs. Experiment with lighting patterns, status indicators, or simple visual effects.

2. Potentiometers: Fine-tune your projects with two potentiometers that allow you to control various parameters in real-time.

3. Push Buttons: Interact with your projects using three tactile push buttons, opening up possibilities for user input and interactivity.

4. Piezo Buzzer: Add audible alerts or sound effects to your applications with the integrated piezo buzzer.

Crystal and Customization

PICDEV BASE comes equipped with a 4 MHz crystal oscillator soldered in place, ensuring precise timing for your projects. But we know that customization is key. That's why we've provided an option for you to solder and select your own crystal oscillator, giving you full control over your project's timing requirements.
