Amotech Labs PIC18F/16F Development Board w/ PIC18F452

Description

The Amotech Labs PIC18F/16F Development Board provides a comprehensive, all-in-one environment for learning and prototyping with Microchip Technology’s 8-bit PIC microcontroller families. It centers around a socketed 40-pin DIP footprint, allowing easy swapping of target MCUs like the pre-installed PIC18F452. The board integrates essential human-machine interface (HMI) components—a 16×2 character LCD, a 4×4 Matrix keypad, and dual seven-segment displays—enabling rapid development of interactive projects without external wiring.

Designed for educational and professional use, the platform simplifies the development workflow. It is powered via a modern USB-C connector and is fully compatible with Microchip Technology’s PICkit programming tools. Expansion capabilities are supported through accessible port headers and compatibility with the Universal Development Board (UDB) system for adding motor drivers, relay modules, or communication interfaces like GSM, making it a versatile foundation for industrial control and IoT system prototypes.
