CHIPKIT UC32

The CHIPKIT UC32 is a development board for the PIC32MX340F512 microcontroller. This microcontroller features a 32bit MIPS processor core running at 80MHz, 512K of flash program memory and 32K of SRAM data memory. The CHIPKIT UC32 is based on the popular Arduino open source hardware prototyping platform and adds the performance of the PIC32 microcontroller. The uC32 is the same form factor as the Arduino Uno board and is compatible with Arduino shields. It features a USB serial port interface for connection to the IDE and can be powered via USB or an external power supply. The uC32 can be programmed using the multi platform integrated development environment, an environment based on the original Arduino IDE modified to support PIC32. In addition, the uC32 is fully compatible with the advanced Microchip MPLAB IDE and the PICKit3 in system programmer/debugger. It is easy to use and suitable for both beginners and advanced users experimenting with electronics and embedded control systems.
