Chapter 3. Getting Started
This chapter demonstrates how the WINC1500 PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board
can be plugged into the PIC18 Explorer, Explorer 16, and Explorer 16/32 Development
Boards.
The WINC1500 Daughter Board can be plugged into multiple Microchip Technology
demonstration and development boards. This allows the developer to choose the
microcontroller that best suits the customer's development environment.
The PICtail connector (J5) can be plugged into 8-bit demonstration and development
board, such as PIC 18 Explorer Board (DM183032). The PICtail Plus card edge
connector (J2) can be plugged into Explorer 16 Development Board (DM240001).
This chapter includes the following topics:
3.1 “Plugging into PIC18 Explorer Board”
3.2 “Plugging into Explorer 16 Development Board”
3.3 “Plugging into Explorer 16/32 Development Board”
3.1
PLUGGING INTO PIC18 EXPLORER BOARD
The WINC1500 PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board can be plugged into the PICtail
connector (J3) of the PIC18 Explorer Board. Ensure that the pin1 is aligned to RE2 as
shown in
CAUTION
Ensure that the PIC18F87J11 PIM is plugged into the PIC18 Explorer Board. This sets
the system voltage V
DD
to 3.3V, which is required by the WINC1500 PICtail/PICtail
Plus Daughter Board.
