Quick Start Guide for PIC24F Plug In Module for Curiosity HPC:

Introduction:

PIC24F Plug-in Module(PIM) is designed to help customers to evaluate PIC24FJ256GA705 family of

devices on Microchip's Curiosity HPC development board (DM164136).

The PIC24F PIM has 40-pin DIP socket at the bottom that will plug-in to the 40 pin DIP socket on the

Curiosity HPC board. Figure 1 and 2 shows the general board orientation.

Note: The "Power" Jumper on the HPC board should be placed on "3V3", NOT on "5V".

Use the port pins marked on the PIM to map the PIC24F device. To program/Debug the device, use the

PKoB on the Curiosity HPC board. In addition, a 6-pin ICSP interface is provided on the PIM using J2, if

you wish to program the device directly. The PIC24F device has two additional I/O's(RA7 and RB13) that

are terminated on J3, they are not mapped to 40-pin DIP. Detailed circuit schematic is attached in the

schematic section.

Use USB connector to power the board. Note that the "Power" Jumper on the HPC board should be

placed on "3V3", NOT on "5V".
