Chapter 2. Hardware

This chapter describes the hardware features of the PIC32MZ DA Starter Kit.
The following key features of the starter kit are presented in the order given in
Section 1.3 "Starter Kit Functionality and
through Figure 1-7 for their locations on the development board.
2.1.1 Processor Support
Depending on the starter kit that you have purchased, the development board comes
with a CPU Daughter Card containing a permanently mounted (i.e., soldered)
processor as given below:
• PIC32MZ Embedded Graphics External DRAM (DA) Starter Kit (DM320008):
PIC32MZ2064DAA288
• PIC32MZ Embedded Graphics External DRAM (DA) Starter Kit (Crypto)
(DM320008-C): PIC32MZ2064DAB288
• PIC32MZ Embedded Graphics Stacked DRAM (DA) Starter Kit (DM320010):
PIC32MZ2064DAG169
• PIC32MZ Embedded Graphics Stacked DRAM (DA) Starter Kit (Crypto)
(DM320010-C): PIC32MZ2064DAA169
2.1.2 Power Supply
There are four ways to supply power to the starter kit:
• Through USB Micro-B connector (J4) – This enables using a wall adapter to
supply more power than traditional USB as needed by the most applications
(preferred).
• Through USB Micro-B DEBUG connector (J19). This connector supports
debugging/programming by MPLAB tools through PKOB ® interface.
• Through USB Micro-USB connector (J6).
• An external application board with a regulated DC power supply that provides +5V
can be connected to the application board connector that is provided on the
bottom side of the board (J3).
One green LED (LD2) on the PIC32MZ2064DAx288 or PIC32MZ2064DAx169 CPU
Daughter Card is provided to indicate the power supply to the PIC32 device.
2.1.3 Graphics Connectivity
Multimedia Expansion Board II (MEB-II) is required to exercise embedded graphics
features on the PIC32MZ DA devices. MEB-II comes with a 4.3" WQVGA (480" x 272")
PCAP display to showcase graphics. In addition, there is one 5.0" WVGA PACP Dis-
play Board that can be used to exercise higher resolution (800" x 480") graphics. Both
of these boards provide 24-bit color.
PIC32MZ Embedded Graphics Starter Kit has been designed with a 168-pin modular
expansion interface, which allows the extendibility to MEB-II.
