HIGHLIGHTS
Chapter 1. Introduction to the XLP 16-Bit Board
Thank you for purchasing Microchip Technology’s XLP 16-Bit Development Board Kit.
The board provides a low-cost, highly configurable development system for Microchip’s
new line of PIC24F 20 and 28-pin Extreme Low-Power (XLP) microcontrollers,
including the PIC24F16KA102 and PIC24FJ64GA102 families.
The XLP 16-bit board permits users to explore and evaluate extreme low-power
features, and learn low-power software and hardware techniques. Various headers are
available to measure both microcontroller and component power consumption. It is
flexible, supporting six different power sources over a wide voltage range. It is highly
configurable, equipped with a variety of common peripheral components that can be
selectively enabled. Finally, it is expandable through its modular interface, providing for
the addition of advanced interfaces and connectivity methods.
As provided, the XLP 16-Bit Development Board functions as a demonstration platform
on initial power-up. The included demonstration software takes a temperature
measurement, datalogs information to the serial data EEPROM and displays informa-
tion to a host PC via a USB connection. Additional software is provided to demonstrate
low-power techniques and IC interface routines.
The XLP 16-Bit Development Board includes these features:
• Support for both 20-pin and 28-pin versions of both PIC24F J-series and K-series
• Accommodations for six different power source options
• Configurability for a wide range of operating voltages (1.8V to 5.5V)
• Configuration selection jumpers to disable board components
• A hardware switchable option to control power to board components with port pin
• USB connectivity
• Provisions to add RS-232 transceivers (not populated)
• Five user-defined buttons (3 capacitive touch and 2 push buttons)
• Two user-defined LEDs
• Two temperature sensors
• Potentiometer for analog input or High/Low Voltage Detect (HLVD) reference
• Built-in capability for separately measuring microcontroller and component current
• Support for all Microchip compatible programmers and emulators
