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.

Flashing the Hex file using ds30 bootloader
STEP 1: Downloadand 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: Click on the write option to flash the hex file, RESET the board immediately so that bootloader is detected. Images below show the sequence. <hovergallery maxhoverwidth=600 maxhoverheight=600> File:DS30 Step1.PNG
