Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:

• Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.

• Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.

• There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.

• Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.

• Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”

Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.

Information contained in this publication regarding device
applications and the like is provided only for your convenience
and may be superseded by updates. It is your responsibility to
ensure that your application meets with your specifications.

1.1 INTRODUCTION

The PIC24F LCD Curiosity Development Board (DM240017) is a demonstration,
development and experimentation platform based on the PIC24FJ128GL306
low-power, low-cost microcontroller featuring integrated segmented LCD controller.
The board has a built-in programmer/debugger and provides all the hardware
necessary to get started developing a complete embedded application. Some key
features of the board include:

• PIC24FJ128GL306 16-bit microcontroller with 128-Kbyte Flash, 8-Kbyte RAM and
up to 256 segments

• PICkit™ On-Board (PKOB) circuit implements basic programming/debugging
ability

• On-board 5-character LCD panel with backlight (8 commons, 56 segments)

•MCLR

• Red/Green/Blue (RGB) LED plus two general purpose indicator LEDs

• Digital temperature sensor (TC77)

• 10k potentiometer

• 32.768 kHz Secondary Oscillator (SOSC) for RTCC

• Female headers for access to microcontroller I/O pins

• Coin cell battery socket and reverse battery protection for optional battery
operation

• USB-UART serial communication bridge (MCP2221A) to interface with
USB host/PC

Chapter 2. Board Power-up

2.1 POWERING UP THE BOARD

The board is intended to be powered through the Micro-B USB connector (USB1) in the
upper left of the board. The USB-UART USB connector does not power the board. A
MIC5528 linear regulator (U5) generates the +3.3V rail used by the PIC24FJ128GL306
microcontroller. The board can be powered by a CR2032 coin cell inserted into the B1
battery housing. Default jumper J9 setup is 2 and 3; this configuration can be left for
power switching between the USB and the battery operation modes.

To measure the power consumption of the board, a meter can be placed between
pins 2 and 3 of jumper J9 (that goes to the battery housing). To measure the current of
the CPU, cut the trace on the bottom of the board under jumper J1 and place a meter
between the two pins.

Note: The USB-UART USB connector does not power the board.

DEVELOPMENT BOARD

QUICK START GUIDE

Chapter 3. Getting Started

3.1 GETTING STARTED WITH THE PIC24F LCD CURIOSITY DEVELOPMENT BOARD

The preprogrammed “out-of-box” demo project for the PIC24F LCD Curiosity
Development Board has two main modes of operation: USB powered and
battery-powered.

3.1.1 USB Powered Mode

In USB Powered mode, via the upper left micro-USB port, there are several different
Display modes. Pressing the S2 button will cycle between each of the Display modes
during USB operation. The Display modes are listed below.

1. Toggles between the text, “PIC24” and “LCD”. Toggling is done automatically by
the LCD module using the Alternate Display mode of the module.

2. Displays the 12-bit value of the potentiometer.

3. Displays the build time of the project. Note that this is the build time of the
build_time.c file. A clean/build will update the time.

4. Displays the current temperature measured by the TC77 on the board. LCD
Alternate Display mode toggles between Celsius and Fahrenheit.

Note: The backlight only operates while in USB mode.

The potentiometer will change the intensity of the RGB LED channel that is currently
active. Switch S1 will change which channel is currently active.

A COM port can be opened to view the data through the USB/UART bridge. All the
above data are displayed on the screen (time, temperature, potentiometer, etc.). The
serial port needs to be set to 19200 baud, 8-bit, no parity, one stop, no flow control.

3.1.2 Battery-Powered Mode

If the USB power is disconnected, the board can run from a battery backup and will go
into Battery-Powered mode. In order to run in Battery-Powered mode, a CR2032 needs
to be inserted in the B1 battery housing and jumper J9 needs to short between pins 2
and 3. Minimal external components are necessary to enable Battery mode, while one
built-in software function will enable Sleep mode.

In Battery-Powered mode, the moon icon is displayed to indicate that it is in
Battery-Powered mode. The battery status icon indicates the current battery status.

The time will be displayed on the screen. The “:” blinks using the LCD module’s blink
feature, while the core is still in Sleep mode. The CPU does not need to wake-up to
update the screen for the “:”.

The CPU wakes up once a minute in this mode to update the time on the screen. LED1
will blink while the CPU is awake. The CPU will also wake-up when the USB power is
detected.

All other functionality from the USB mode is disabled.

Note: The backlight only operates while in USB mode.
