8. RJ11 ICSP™ programming/debug interface – compatible with MPLAB®
ICD/REAL ICE™, and other RJ11 based Microchip programming/debug tools.
9. 6-pin interface for the PICkit programmer (when used in conjunction with a
6-pin 100 mil male-male header).
10. 8x general purpose green indicator LEDs (D3-D10) – controllable by the PIM
microcontroller firmware.
11. 4x general purpose pushbuttons – state readable by the PIM microcontroller
firmware.
12. MCP2221A (http://www.microchip.com/mcp2221a) USB to UART (up to
460,800 baud) + I C serial adapter chip – useful for transferring data to/from
the PIM microcontroller or attached accessory boards and a USB host.
13. USB Type-C™ connector – useful for the development of both embedded host
and device based Low/Full/High Speed USB applications, when used in
conjunction with a USB capable microcontroller/PIM.
14. USB Type-A connector – shares USB signals with the Type-C connector and is
useful for the development of dedicated USB embedded host applications,
when used in conjunction with a USB capable microcontroller/PIM.
15. 2x mikroBUS (http://www.mikroe.com/mikrobus) interfaces – useful for
attaching a wide array of hardware expansion boards, for extending the
functionality of the platform.
16. PICtail Plus interface – useful for attaching a wide array of existing PICtail Plus
based expansion boards, extending the hardware functionality of the platform.
17. 100 mil pitch I/O pin access headers – useful for accessing nearly all PIM
microcontroller nets for debugging, oscilloscope monitoring, or for making
additional connections between nets and/or to external hardware. The female
headers can accommodate standard 100 mil male headers, or 22 AWG solid
wires.
18. Independent crystals for precision microcontroller clocking (8 MHz) and time
keeping operation (32.768 kHz). Also implements provisions for canned
oscillators (see Oscillators Options (https://microchip-dev.wikidot.com
/boards:explorer1632#toc6) section).
19. 10 k Potentiometer – useful as an analog signal source for ADC
demonstration or user interface purposes.
20. TC1047A analog output temperature sensor – useful for monitoring the
ambient temperature and/or demonstrating ADC operation.
21. Serial SPI EEPROM (25LC256).
22. 2-Line by 16-Character LCD Module – Truly TSB1G7000-E
(http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/TSB1G7000-Ev1.0.pdf)
4/8-bit parallel interface LCD module, useful for displaying user application
strings/text.
