The MCU card is provided with a socket for PIC microcontrollers in DIP40 package. The PIC18F4520 microcontroller normally delivered
with the PIC MCU card is placed into the DIP40 socket. In addition to this microcontroller, there are also other microcontrollers in
DIP40 package such as PIC16F877A, PIC18F4550 etc. that can be used here. There is a built-in programmer
3,&ÀDVK
with mikroICD
support provided on the MCU card. To enable the proper operation of this programmer, it is necessary to install the appropriate USB

driver for the
3,&ÀDVK
programmer from the product CD. To enable a .hex code to be loaded into a PIC microcontroller, it is necessary
to install the
3,&ÀDVK
program providing an interface between the microcontroller and a PC. The built-in
3,&ÀDVK
programmer has a
hardware mikroICD support which enables real-time debugging. As a result, it is possible to monitor variables and state of all registers
within the microcontroller during programming.
A USB communication between the microcontroller and an external USB device is enabled by means of jumpers J1, J2 and J3. In case
the USB communication is not used, it is necessary to set jumpers J1, J2 and J3 to the upper position.
