Demo board shows
off low-pin-count Flash MCUs
The PICDEM 4 demonstration board helps engineers to evaluate and demonstrate the advanced capabilities of Microchip's low pin-count PICmicro Flash microcontrollers
PICDEM 4 offers multiple socket options for immediate programming and debugging of 8-, 14- and 18-pin PIC12F, PIC16F and PIC18F microcontrollers. The board demonstrates many of the features of low-pin-count parts, including Local Interconnect Network and motor control capability using the enhanced capture/compare/PWM module.

LDO cuts power for long-term standby
Power-saving low-dropout regulator is ideal for applications requiring long battery runtimes and high tolerance for input-voltage variations
Low-power operation is achieved with a supercapacitor circuit and jumpers allow the onboard hardware to be disabled to eliminate current draw.
The demonstration board also includes provision for crystal, RC or canned oscillator modes and a 5V regulator for use with a 9V supply, or hooks for a 5V, 100mA regulated DC supply.
Additional features include an RS232 interface, an EEPROM footprint, 2 x 16 liquid crystal display, PCB footprints for an H-bridge motor driver, LIN transceiver, and a connector for programming via In-Circuit Serial Programming technology and developing with the MPLAB ICD 2 in-circuit debugger.
The PICDEM 4 demonstration board (DM163014) costs $129 and includes two PICmicro Flash microcontrollers and a CD-ROM containing sample programs, application notes and user guide.
The MPLAB ICD 2 (DV164007) is available as a stand-alone unit.
Microchip's MPLAB IDE (interactive development environment) software can be downloaded for free from the Microchip website.
