Description

The Amotech Labs PIC18F/16F Development Board is a comprehensive, all-in-one platform designed for embedded engineers and students working with Microchip Technology’s PIC microcontroller family. It provides a robust foundation for developing, testing, and deploying applications by integrating core MCU support with essential human-machine interface (HMI) components and a versatile expansion ecosystem.

Built around a 40-pin DIP socket, the board natively accommodates a wide range of PIC16F and PIC18F devices, shipped with a PIC18F452 installed for out-of-the-box functionality. Its architecture emphasizes hands-on experimentation, featuring direct access to MCU ports, a dedicated programming header for PICkit tools, and a selectable 5V/3.3V power rail to match peripheral requirements. The inclusion of interactive elements like a Matrix keypad, dual seven-segment displays, and push buttons accelerates the development of user-controlled systems, while the PWM-capable LED and analog input channel facilitate signal testing and sensor integration.

Key Features

  • Dedicated 40-pin DIP socket supporting PIC16F and PIC18F microcontroller families for flexible project scaling.
  • Integrated human-machine interface with 4x4 keypad, dual seven-segment displays, and push buttons for interactive application development.
  • Onboard PICkit 3/3.5 compatible programming connector for direct firmware uploads without external adapters.
  • Dual-power rail system with jumper-selectable 5V or 3.3V operation to interface with a wide range of sensors and peripherals.
  • Comprehensive expansion via UDB connectors and breadboard-compatible headers for attaching shields, sensors, and custom circuits.
  • Includes dedicated PWM-testing LED on RC2 and an analog input channel (A3) for direct sensor signal measurement and prototyping.
  • USB-C +5V power input provides modern, reversible connectivity and stable power delivery for standalone operation.

Applications

  • Educational platform for learning embedded systems, microcontroller architecture, and C programming for PIC devices.
  • Rapid prototyping board for industrial control systems, sensor nodes, and basic human-machine interface (HMI) units.
  • Development testbed for hobbyist projects involving user input (keypads), numeric output (displays), and PWM control (LEDs, motors).
  • Foundation for custom embedded designs requiring easy access to PIC MCU pins, analog inputs, and expansion capabilities.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I program the microcontroller on this Amotech Labs board?

Use a PICkit 3 or 3.5 programmer connected to the onboard 6-pin ICSP header. Install MPLAB X IDE or MPLAB IPE on your computer, connect the USB cable, select the correct PIC device (e.g., PIC18F452) in the software, compile your code, and click 'Program' to flash the firmware onto the MCU through the dedicated programming interface.

Can I use 3.3V sensors and peripherals with this development board?

Yes. Set the voltage selection jumper to the 3.3V position to power the board's I/O rails at 3.3V. Ensure any connected sensors or modules are compatible with this logic level. The MCU itself still operates at 5V from the USB input, but the jumper switches the voltage supplied to the expansion headers and some onboard components for safe peripheral interfacing.

What is the purpose of the A3 analog input channel?

The A3 channel is a dedicated analog input pin broken out to a header. It allows you to directly connect analog sensors like temperature sensors (LM35) or potentiometers to the PIC's ADC. You can read voltage values (0-5V) in your code to measure physical phenomena, making it ideal for data acquisition and sensor prototyping projects without additional circuitry.
