Development platforms help to integrate 8-bit PIC MCUs into existing designs

Developed to help engineers fully integrate 8-bit PIC microcontrollers (MCUs) into existing designs, Microchip 8-Bit development platforms are now available from Mouser stock. Featured boards and kits include the Curiosity Development Board, PICDEM Lab II Development Board and the Explorer 8 Development Kit. The Curiosity Development Board (DM164137) is offered as a fully integrated 8-bit development platform for first-time users, designers, and those requiring a feature-rich rapid prototyping board. The PICDEM Lab II Development Board (DM163046) is a development and teaching platform for use with 8-bit PIC microcontrollers (MCUs). The Explorer 8 Development Kit (DM160228) is a full-featured development board and platform for 8-bit PIC microcontrollers and is designed to be the main tool for 8-bit development.
