Crafted for Cloud-Based Development

The PIC24FJ256GA7 Curiosity Development Board offers seamless integration with the Microchip

software tool chain, including the MPLAB Xpress Cloud-based IDE, XC16 compiler and MPLAB Code

Configurator for easy set-up and prototyping.

Internet of Things (IoT) Ready

Have an IoT design in mind? The PIC24FJ256GA7 Curiosity Board can help turn your IoT design idea

into reality. The board can enable applications with low power, low pin count and small footprint

requirements as in IoT sensor nodes. Out of the box, the board offers several options for user

interface—including switches, RGB LED, User LEDs and analog potentiometer. In addition, wireless

connectivity can easily be added using 2 mikroBUS™ interfaces and wireless connectivity click

boards™. A full complement of accessory boards is available via the MikroElectronika mikroBUS™

interfaces.

TMIK024 - ADC Click by MikroElektronika

ADC Click is an add-on board in the mikroBUS™ form factor. It includes a 12-bit Analog-to-Digital

Converter (ADC) MCP3204 device that features 50k samples/second, 4 input channels, and low-

power consumption (500nA typical standby, 2µA max). In addition, this board uses the industry-

standard SPI communication interface. It is small in size and features convenient screw terminals for

easier connections. By default, the board is set to use 3.3V of power. However, to use it with 5V

systems, just place the PWR SEL SMD jumper in the 5V position.
