The Ultimate PIC Starter USB Development Board comes with PIC 16F877A MCU with inbuilt serial bootloader, USB to UART convertor eliminating need of a external programmer! The board also has 16x2 LCD Breakout, test switch, LEDs and all pins of the MCU taken out. This will help you get started with PIC development.
Features:
- 16F877A MCU with ds30 bootloader
- LCD 16x2 breakout.
- Serial Interface RS232.
- Test switches (1) and LEDs(3).
- All Port pins pins available for peripheral interfacing.
- Dimensions: 95mm X 70mm.
- 1.6mm Glass Epoxy, FR4 PCB.
- Wave Soldered.
Flashing the Hex file using ds30 bootloader
STEP 1: Download and install the DS30 bootloader gui.
Step 2:
- Browse the hex file
- Select the appropriate MCU
- Select the baud rate as 9600
- Select the correct com port detected on your computer, when using USB to serial convertor check for exact COM port number in device manager
Step 3: The board uses DTR pin of the CP2102 USB to Serial Convertor to reset the MCU. Set it up as shown in the image below. Step 4: Click on the write option to flash the hex file,. Images below show the sequence. <hovergallery maxhoverwidth=600 maxhoverheight=600> File:DS30 Step2.PNG
