Dear all, I'm back with a quick presentation, presentation
which I had to share some time ago about the famous development board EasyPic
v7 made by Mikroelectronika , launched on 07 October 2011.
The motherboard, at the hardware level is very well
structured, it allows you to implement many configurations, depending on your
desires.
I will attach the electronic schematic to be more easily for
those who want to reproduce the project without having the Easypic v7 board.
I will not bored you with the detailed information about
this product, you can find them easily on their website.
What does it bring this development board:
- Power Supply which allows you to work with both voltage level, +5vcc and +3,3 vcc,
- Two sockets which allows you to connect the Click boards,
- On-board programmer,
- Disponibility to work with more than 387 microcontrollers,
- The board contains eight sockets:DIP40, DIP28, DIP20, DIP18A, DIP18B, DIP14, DIP8 and support for PIC10F,
- Disponibility to connect the peripheral via: UART, UART - USB,USB, RS232 and I2C,
- 4 digit 7seg. - display, Lcd 2x16 character, an graphic display with a resolution of 128x64 pixels and a touch panel controller,
- Sockets to attach the temperature sensors DS1820 and LM35,
- Piezo Buzzer,
- Input/Output Group contains PORT headers, tri-state pull up/down DIP switch, buttons and LED’s,
- ADC inputs through variable resistor, capability to adjust the brightness of Lcd’s,
The PCB is made from glass textolite with a thickness of 3 mm and a diameter of 266 x 220mm. Is very well finished and has a 445g weigh.
In conclusion EasyPIC v7 is one of the best PIC development
boards I have ever seen. Full of I/O ports, highly flexible and configurable.
The schematics manual and user’s guide included in the
package explain very well all the on-board features and how to use them. From my personal point of view the EasyPIC v7 is a must have development board for both beginners and experienced
developers.
