Figure 3-2: cutting copper Figure 3-3: placing 2x5 Figure 3-4: soldering 2x5 Figure 3-5: Connecting between pads male header male header on the pads mikroProg programmer ™ First you need to cut the copper between pads for the external programmer, Figure 3-2. By doing so pins RB6, RB7, MCLR and VCC on the MCU will be separated from the rest of the board.
4. USB-UART Fast on-board FTDI chip allows Ready for PIC to communicate ® ® with a PC or other UART devices using a USB-UART connection. USB-B connector (CN1) is used for connecting the USB cable. RX (receive) and TX (transmit) LEDs will indicate communication status. Before connecting the board to a PC, make sure that you have the appropriate FTDI drivers installed on your operating system.
5. Prototyping area DATA BUS Figure 5-2: GREEN YELLOW schematic of three LEDs connected to microcontroller pins as shown in Figure 5-1 Proto area allows you to expand your Ready for PIC board with ® additional functionality. It can be done by placing your additional components on the available prototyping area.
6. Pin headers and connection pads Each microcontroller pin is available for further connections through four on-board 2x5 connection headers and two 1x28 connection pads. Pins are grouped in four PORT groups (2x5 male headers) as well as per their functions (1x28 connection pads), which makes development and connections much easier.
