2.3.1
1. Remove any PICmicro microcontroller that may be in the evaluation socket.
2. Connect the USB cable to the PC and to the PICkit 1 Flash Starter Kit board. The
It is easiest to use this board when it lays directly on a bench top.
2.3.2
This board plugs into the PICkit 1 Flash Starter Kit’s expansion header J3 (Figure 2-1),
and must not cover the LED array. There should be no change in the status LEDs on
the PICkit Flash Starter Kit board once it is plugged in.
2.3.3
If you would rather use the MCP6S92 PGA, take it out of the anti-static bag and replace
the already-installed MCP6S22 PGA.
1. Plug this board into, and directly above, the Signal Analysis PICtail Daughter
2.1
1. Select the Real Time Mode radio button.
2. Click on the Strip Chart button.
3. Change the sample speed to 20 sample/secs.
4. Click on the green GO button; the strip-chart will show the measured output of
5. Move the photodiode close to a light source, such as a desk lamp, and verify that
