PIC 28 pin Hardware Starter Kit
Farnell Order Code 459-896
The Hardware Starter Kit is intended to get PIC based projects up and running in a fraction of the
time. Once the board is constructed, the software writing can begin in the knowledge that the
hardware core is functional. A suitable programmer for use with this board is the PICSTART Plus
and the user will need some re-programmable versions of the PIC for development purposes.
The PIC鈥檚 which can be used with this board are the 16C55/55S and 16C57/55S.
Construction of the board should take about 5 minutes using a small soldering iron and a pair of
wire cutters. Care should be taken when inserting the regulator (IC2). The LED鈥檚 should be
inserted with the shorter lead to the edge of the board.
EMC Directive Compliance
This sub-assembly is intended for design
purposes only and therefore not subject to
the provisions of the EMC Directive. It is the
responsibility of the assembler to ensure
that the end product housing this sub-
assembly complies with the requirements of
the EMC Directive.
