1.0 Preface

1.1. Cautions

Caution: Check power supply requirements. Incorrect voltage will damage the board. See chapter 3.2

for details.

Caution: Only populate one socket at a time. Do not insert microcontrollers into more than one socket

at a time, or you may damage the microcontroller chips.

Caution: Check the pin orientation of the sockets before inserting a chip. The 28- pin socket is

rotated by 180 degrees in relation to the 40-pin socket (see ). This means that the pin 1 location for the 28-pin socket is in the lower right hand corner, whereas the pin 1 position for the 40-pin socket is in the upper left hand corner of the socket. Make sure you align pin 1 of your microcontroller with pin 1 of the socket. Inserting a microcontroller chip incorrectly can damage it.

3.2. Power Supply Requirements

Power input to the board is supplied via a barrel connector with 5.5mm outer and 2.5mm inner diameter. An on-board bridge rectifier provides polarity reversal protection and allows you to use both AC or DC input voltages.

An on-board LM317 adjustable output voltage regulator can be set via a jumper to provide the board with either 5.0V or 3.3V DC operating voltage. In the open position of jumper 3.3V, the output voltage is 5.0V. In the jumper-closed position, the output voltage is 3.3V

Jumper 3.3V Board Operating Voltage (BOV)

Open 5.0V DC Closed 3.3V DC

The input voltage supplied to the board should be at least 3.5V above the desired board operating voltage (BOV) if you use a DC power supply, and 2.5V above BOV if you use an AC power supply.

Minimum AC input voltage Minimum DC input voltage

The following maximum input voltages should not be exceeded by your power supply, otherwise you risk damaging the board:

Maximum AC input voltage Maximum DC input voltage

The current rating of your power supply is uncritical, as this board requires less than 100mA to operate. Therefore, any power supply with a current rating of 100mA or higher can be used. A higher current rating is not a problem, as the board will only draw as much current from the supply as is needed for operation.

In general, you should use voltages close to the minimum required input voltage. It reduces stress on the voltage regulator, as a smaller voltage differential has to be dissipated into heat.

A word of caution, however: Many cheap transformer-based wall-plug power supplies provide an unregulated output voltage that under no load is usually much higher than the rated output voltage printed on the supply. This high output voltage then “collapses” under load and can be lower than the rated output voltage. To avoid damage to your board, verify with a multi-meter that the true voltage of your power supply is within the above stated limits before connecting it to this board.

3.3. 28- and 40-pin MCU sockets

Caution: Only populate one socket at a time. Do not insert microcontrollers into more than one socket

at a time, or you may damage the microcontroller chips.

Caution: Check the pin orientation of the sockets before inserting a chip. The 28- pin socket is

Check the pinout of the PIC microcontroller, which you intent to use with this board, in the Microchip PIC device datasheet. Verify that the PIC’s Vdd, Vss, OSC1, OSC2, ICSP programming, and UART Rx and TX signals match the location of those pins on the appropriate MCU socket of this board (see schematic).

The board has routed connections from both sockets to the RS232 Rx and Tx pins, ICSP signals, a push button, a reset button, an LED and a crystal oscillator.

Each unused MCU pin has a direct connection to the solder pad next to it. You can solder square header pins into those locations and then use prototyping jumper wires to connect to other circuitry. Alternatively, you can directly solder wire connections or component pins to these pads. Using header pins and jumper wires gives you the flexibility to connect the MCU pins to different components on the board quickly.

3.4. MCU Oscillator Circuit

A 20MHz crystal oscillator is connected to the 28-pin and 40-pin socket oscillator pins. The crystal is socketed, so you can easily replace it with a different frequency value.

3.5. In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP) and In-Circuit Debug (ICD) Interface

PIC microcontrollers use the same connection for in-circuit serial programming (ICSP) and in-circuit debugging (ICD). Figure 3-1 shows the location of the ICSP/ICD connectors. The board features two ICSP/ICD connectors - an RJ12 jack and a 6-pin single row, latched header - to provide compatibility with a broad selection of PIC programmers and in-circuit debuggers. The ICSP signals are routed to the appropriate pins of both PIC MCU sockets.

Some 40-pin PIC microcontrollers have the optional PGM programming signal on pin 38 (RB5), others on pin 25 (RB3). If you use a programmer that requires the PGM signal, make sure you connect it to the correct MCU pin, by setting jumper PGM_sel according to the table below.

3.6. RS232 Interface

RS232 devices are classified as Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) or Data Communications Equipment (DCE). This defines for each device which wires will be sending and receiving each signal.

PCs or terminals have male connectors with DTE pin functions; the PIC-P40-28 board has a female connector with DCE pin functions.

As a minimum requirement for communicating with a PC or Terminal, only the RxD and TxD signals are required. All other signals are optional. If hardware flow control is desired, connect the CTS and RTS/DTR signals to free PIC I/O pins (you must then implement the hardware handshake in your PIC firmware).

The RS232 standard defines RTS/CTS as the signaling protocol for hardware flow control for data transmitted from DTE to DCE.

3.7. Reset Circuit

An RC reset circuit (R2 and C13) is connected to the MCLR pin to assure that a proper power-on reset is generated when a PIC microcontroller is used that has no integrated Brown-Out-Reset (BOR) or where

BOR is disabled. C13 is not mounted. If you use a PIC chip without BOR or with BOR disabled, then you

should mount C13. See the PIC datasheet for recommended values.

Using the RC reset does not assure a proper reset in brown-out conditions (sudden, short voltage drops). Certain brown-out conditions may corrupt the PIC’s on-chip Flash or EEPROM content. Some PIC chips feature on-chip brown-out reset (BOR) circuitry that can be enabled (check the datasheet of your particular device). It is recommended that you enable the PIC’s on-chip brown-out to avoid memory corruption.

The PIC chip can also be reset by pressing and releasing the RST switch on the board.

3.8. LED

An LED is connected via jumper LED_J to a PIC I/O pin (see schematic).You can disconnect the LED by removing jumper LED_J. You can easily connect the LED to any unused PIC I/O pin of your choice by running a wire from the LED connect side of the jumper header to the desired PIC pin.

The LED is turned on by programming the I/O pin as a high output.

The table below shows to which PIC pin, depending on the jumper LED_J setting, the LED is connected.
