The MA240014 is a PIC24FJ256GB110 USB plug in module for use with Explorer 16 development board. This USB plug in module designed to demonstrate the capabilities of the PIC24FJ256GB110 using the Explorer 16 development board and the PICtail™ Plus daughter boards. The PIC24FJ256GB110 is specifically designed to be used in conjunction with the USB PICtail Plus daughter board to allow development of USB applications. Because a few pins on the device are dedicated to the USB module, several of the existing features of the Explorer 16 must be rerouted on the PIC24FJ256GB110 PIM. The peripheral pin select (PPS) feature, available on this device, allows the existing peripherals to be remapped to the new I/O pins. The plug in module plugs into the main processor socket of the development boards so that different microcontrollers can be used for prototyping, demonstration or development quickly and easily.
