Default MCU card
Microcontrollers are supported using specialized MCU cards containing 104 pins, which
are placed into the on-board female MCU socket. Currently, there are three types of cards:
Standard 80-pin TQFP
,
Ethernet 80-pin TQFP card
and
Ethernet 100-pin TQFP
PF card
. Standard card supports 80-pin PIC18Fxxxx, PIC18FxxJxx and PIC18FxxKxx
microcontrollers, with or without USB support. It contains several SMD jumpers, which
are supposed to be placed or removed, depending on the microcontroller.
Default MCU card
that comes with the EasyPIC PRO
™
v7 package is shown on
Figure
4-1
. It contains
PIC18F87K22
microcontroller which is loaded with on-chip modules
and is a great choice for both beginners and professionals. After testing and building
the final program, this card can also be taken out of the board socket and used in your
final device.
PIC18F87K22 microcontroller.
Featuring nanoWatt XLP
™
technology, it has
16 MIPS operation, 128K bytes of linear program memory, 3896 bytes of linear
data memory, and support for a wide range of power supply from 1.8V to 5V.
16MHz crystal oscillator.
We carefully chose the most convenient crystal
value that provides clock frequency which can be used directly, or with the PLL
multipliers and dividers to create higher MCU clock value.
VCAP jumper.
Some PIC18FK and all PIC18FJ microcontrollers have cores that
work on 1.8V-2.5V voltage range, and peripherals that work with 3.3V and
5V voltages. Internally, those microcontrollers have power regulators which
adjust the core voltage levels. In order for those devices to have a stable
operation of the core, manufacturer recommends that decoupling capacitive
filters should be provided, and connected between specific microcontroller
pins designated with VCAP and GND. This MCU card provides a VCAP jumper
which is used for this purpose.
Jumper is removed by default.
USB communication lines.
These two jumpers, when in USB position, connect
D+
and
D-
lines of the on-board USB connector with
RF3
and
RF4
microcontroller
pins. Since PIC18F87K22 doesn't support USB,
jumpers are in I/O position
.
V
USB
line jumper
. For PIC18F8xJ5x devices, this jumper should be connected
to VCC for enabling internal USB controller. Since PIC18F87K22 doesn't support
USB,
this jumper is in I/O position
.
ENVREG selection jumper.
PIC18FJ and PIC18FK microcontrollers are using
internal voltage regulator which is enabled by placing this jumper in
VCC
position
.
