Microchip Technology PIC32MM USB Curiosity Development Board

Microchip Technology PIC32MM USB Curiosity Development Board (DM320107) is a demonstration, development, and experimentation platform based on the low-cost, eXtreme Low Power (XLP) PIC32MM GPM Series microcontrollers. The PIC32MM USB Curiosity Development Board features two MikroElektronika mikroBUS^™ expansion interfaces, a USB micro B connector, and two X32 Interfaces that facilitate access to the PIC32 Audio Codec Daughter Card. The PIC32MM USB Board makes an ideal evaluation tool for audio noise cancellation, USB headphone, hi-resolution audio, Bluetooth^® audio, and similar applications.

The Microchip Technology PIC32MM USB Curiosity Development Board is pre-programmed with an RGB color mixing application. In the demo, the potentiometer can be used to adjust each color channel intensity, independently, while the push buttons are used to select the channel to be adjusted. Additionally, when connected to a Windows® system-based host computer via USB2, the board enumerates as a custom/vendor class USB device, which can interface with a custom demo application.
