Overview
The cost-effective and easy‑to‑use dsPIC33CK Value Line Curiosity Nano Evaluation Kit evaluates the dsPIC33CK256MC005 Value Line Digital Signal Controller (DSC). It integrates 256 KB of Error Correction Code (ECC) Flash, 16 KB of RAM, a 12‑bit, 2 Msps, 15-channel Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC), 1 analog comparator, a 12‑bit Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC), high‑speed Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) devices and multiple Core-Independent Peripherals (CIPs) to deliver a cost‑optimized solution for applications such as general‑purpose control, sensing and other embedded applications.
This Curiosity Nano evaluation kit provides an easy access to all features of the dsPIC33CK256MC005 DSC for rapid prototyping of your custom design. It is supported by MPLAB® X Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and by the MPLAB Code Configurator (MCC) development framework.
The Curiosity Nano evaluation kit contains an on-board Curiosity Nano debugger for programming and debugging and requires no external tools to program the dsPIC33CK256MC005 device.
Expand Your Design:
This dsPIC33CK Value Line Curiosity Nano Evaluation Kit is compatible with the Curiosity Nano Base for Click board™ (Part No. AC164162) and Curiosity Nano Explorer (Part No. EV58G97A), which feature mikroBUS™ sockets and more. These boards enable you to add functionality quickly and effortlessly to your project using the vast selection of Click boards available from MikroElektronika.
This Curiosity Nano evaluation kit is also compatible with the Curiosity Nano Touch Adapter (Part No.AC80T88A). The Curiosity Nano touch adapter bridges the Curiosity Nano Evaluation Kit to the maxXTouch® XPLAINED PRO connected touch extension boards and enables you to explore touch application designs using the dsPIC33CK256MC005 DSC.

The Microchip Curiosity Nano Base for Click boards™ evaluation kit is a hardware extension platform to ease the connection between Curiosity Nano kits and extension boards like the mikroBUS™ Click modules and Xplained Pro extension boards.
|
The Microchip Curiosity Nano Touch Adapter is a hardware extension platform to ease the connection between Curiosity Nano kits and Xplained Pro touch extension boards.
The Curiosity Nano Touch Adapter bridges from the Curiosity Nano MCU kits to the XPRO connected touch extension boards. Its similar in purpose as the Curiosity Nano Base for Click boards™ (AC164162) yet focused on touch extension boards. |
The Curiosity Nano Explorer lives up to its name by providing extensive on-board features that allow users to explore and experiment with the microcontroller peripherals of their Curiosity Nano development board. It also serves as an ideal platform to become familiar with Microchip's software offerings, including MCC Melody.
A wide selection of input and output options:
Solid support for serial communication:
Microchip’s complementary technologies:
Finally, if anything is missing on the Explorer, its functionality can be expanded via mikroBUS™, Grove or Qwiic® sockets. |
