Chapter 1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Microchip Technology PIC32MK General Purpose (GP)
Development Board . This development board provides a low-cost, modular
development system for Microchip’s line of 32-bit microcontrollers.
For a free Microchip demonstration code and additional information, visit the MPLAB
Harmony page at:
http://www.microchip.com/MPLABHarmony
. The MPLAB Harmony
Integrated Software Framework includes several demonstrations that have
configurations for the PIC32MK GP Development Board.
These demonstrations are available in the
<install-dir>/apps
folder of the
MPLAB Harmony installation, where
<install-dir>
is either:
C:/microchip/harmony/<version>
(for Windows OS) or
~/microchip/harmony/<version>
(for MAC or Linux OS).
For additional information on demonstrations and for building/running steps, refer to the
documents available in the
<install-dir>/doc
folder.
This chapter covers the following topics:

Kit Contents
•
Starter Kit Functionality and Features
The preprogrammed example code on the PIC32MK GP family MCU is available for
download from the Microchip web site at:
http://www.microchip.com/design-centers/32-bit
. All project files are included, hence
the code may be used to restore the PIC32MK GP family MCU on the starter kit to its
original state (i.e., if the sample device has been reprogrammed with another program)
or you can use the tutorial code as a platform for further experiment.
