PIC32 Plug in Module (PIM) and Adaptor:

Processor Plug-In Modules are small circuit boards to be used with the various Microchip Development Boards to evaluate various MCU families. These plug into the main processor socket of the Development Boards so that different microcontrollers can be used for prototyping, demonstration or development --quickly and easily.

AC320002AC320002: PIC32 Starter Kit Plug in Module (PIM) Adapter

The PIC32 Starter Board PIM Adapter is designed to enable the PIC32 Starter Board to work with the Explorer 16 Development Board. This enables users to customize functionality using PICtail™ Plus daughter cards or eliminate the need for external debugging hardware.

With the PIC32 Starter Board plugged into the Explorer 16 Development Board, there are 2 options to connect to MPLAB® Integrated Development Environment (IDE):

Use the existing PIC32 Starter Board circuitry. Ensure the PIC32 Starter Board USB cable is connected to the PIC32 Starter Board debug port. Also, connect the +9V DC power supply to the Explorer 16 Development Board.
Use a third party JTAG debugger connected to the Explorer 16 Development Board JTAG port.

Note:

The PIM connector does not provide +5V, therefore the PIC32 Starter Board +5V_EXT signal is not connected to the application circuit.
The connector on the PIC32 Starter Board PIM Adapter is not compatible with the MPLAB® REAL ICE™ in-circuit emulator or the MPLAB ICD 3 in-circuit debugger.
