Connecting External Debuggers
Even though there is an on-board debugger, external debuggers can be connected directly to
PIC18F47Q10 Curiosity Nano to program/debug the PIC18F47Q10. The on-board debugger keeps all the
pins connected to the PIC18F47Q10 and board edge in tri-state when not actively used. Therefore, the
on-board debugger will not interfere with any external debug tools.
