Getting Started

2.1 Curiosity Nano Quick Start
Steps to start exploring the Curiosity Nano platform:
1. Download MPLAB
2. Launch MPLAB
3. Connect a USB cable (Standard-A to Micro-B or Micro-AB) between the PC and the debug USB
port on the kit.
When the Curiosity Nano kit is connected to your computer for the first time, the operating system will
perform a driver software installation. The driver file supports both 32- and 64-bit versions of Microsoft
