PIC16F1789 PIC Board

PIC Training Board

This PIC board is compact and comes with a 44-pin PIC16F1789 fitted - see below for all the advantages of this chip. The PIC microcontroller runs from default 500KHz Internal Clock but this can easily be changed to faster speeds, up to 8 MHz or 32MHz with PLL.

It has expansion headers for all the port pins and accessories can be easily attached. It has a USB connector that appears as a virtual serial port on your PC unlike most microcontroller boards that are still fitted with a standard 9-pin serial port. The PIC board is powered through this USB connector.

It has 24C I2C serial EEPROM fitted, temperature sensor, buzzer plus 8 LEDs and 8 switches.

Extra modules, sensors, keypad, LCD and prototyping boards come with mounting pillars and leads and can easily be fitted to this PIC board, see accessories below.

It has standard Microchip connector for PIC ICSP, so PIC tools, like PIC Kit 4 and SNAP programmer and debugger, just connect to it for programming the PIC16F1789 microcontroller.
