chipKIT™ DP32™ Board Reference Manual
Revised October 9, 2015
This manual applies to the chipKIT DP32 rev. C
Overview
The chipKIT DP32 is an MPIDE compatible prototyping and project development board from Digilent. It combines
the power of the Microchip® PIC32MX250F128B with a wire wrap prototyping area and provision for an EEPROM
non-volatile memory. The chipKIT DP32 has many on board features, including an analog temperature sensor, a
potentiometer, buttons, and LEDs. The mounting hole footprint on the board is designed to fit in the Hammond
1591XXSSBK project box.
The chipKIT DP32 Board.
The DP32 takes advantage of the powerful PIC32MX250F128B microcontroller. This microcontroller features a 32-
bit MIPS processor core running at 40 MHz, 128K of flash program memory, and 32K of SRAM data memory. The
PIC32MX250F128B is suitable for building projects directly on the board, utilizing the provided prototyping area,
but it can also be used as a PIC32MX250F128B programmer to program the microcontrollers for inclusion in
custom built projects.
The DP32 can be programmed using the Multi-Platform Integrated Development Environment (MPIDE), an
environment based on the open source Arduino™ IDE, modified to support the PIC32 microcontroller. The board
provides everything needed to start developing embedded applications using the MPIDE.
The DP32 is also fully compatible with the advanced Microchip MPLAB® IDE and MPLAB® X IDE. To develop
embedded applications using MPLAB, a separate In Circuit Serial Programmer (ICSP) such as the Digilent chipKIT
PGM or the Microchip PICkit3™, is required.

Using the Microchip development tools to program the DP32 board will cause the boot loader to be erased. To use the board with the MPIDE again, it is necessary to program the bootloader back onto the board. The boot loader image can be downloaded from the DP32 product page on the Digilent website. chipKIT DP32 Jumper Settings USBID Connect (USB OTG) Loaded: USBID is connected to Digital I/O pin 0 (RB5) and is usable by the microcontroller. -
