Microchip Multimedia Expansion Board

Table of contents

Microchip's Multimedia Expansion Board is an integrated yet flexible solution for

development of high impact User Interfaces. The board comes with a 3.2"

Colour TFT touch-screen display and interfaces to any PIC32 Starter kit

allowing you to choose the device family that works best for you. Many

Industrial and Consumer applications have a need for remote control of the

application. The Multimedia Expansion Board comes with an onboard FCC

certified WiFi module, and can accommodate the General Purpose, Ethernet,

and USB PIC32 Starter Kits. Other features include a 24-bit stereo audio

codec, three axis accelerometer, a joystick and, a MicroSD memory card slot.

 

You will need a PIC32 board to use the MEB expansion board

  • Here I am after a bit discussion with some friends.  Despite the demand for example a Starter 32 kit ( ex.STARTER, ENET, PIC32  + Microchip Multimedia Expansion BoardTogether with + BOARD, EXPANSION FOR PIC32 , this will offer a very nice experimental platform ! ).   MICROCHIP DM320002 KIT, STARTER, ENET, PIC32 Kit Contents:Starter Board, USB and Ethernet Cables, Software CD Features:Kit has Form Factor and Expansion Connector that are Compatible with Other PIC32 Starter Kits SVHC:No SVHC (15-Dec-2010) Development Tool Type:Starter Kit Kit Features:Integrated Programmer, Integrated Debugger, USB Powered Board, USB, Ethernet, Expansion Connectors MCU Supported Families:PIC32 Tool / Board Application:Development Tool / Board Applications:Microcontroller  Type:Hardware / Software - Starter Kit  +  BOARD, MULTIMEDIA EXPANSION, PIC32 Silicon Manufacturer:Microchip Core Architecture:PIC Core Sub-Architecture:PIC32 Silicon Core Number:PIC32MX Kit Contents:Board Features:3.2" Colour TFT Touch-screen Display and Interfaces, Multimedia Expansion Board SVHC:No SVHC (15-Dec-2010) Kit Features:Attach any PIC32 Starter Kit, Power via USB through the Starter Kit or External 9V Supply MCU Supported Families:PIC32 Tool / Board Applications:Microcontroller Type:Expansion Board  +  BOARD, I/O EXPANSION FOR PIC32 Silicon Manufacturer:Microchip Core Architecture:PIC Core Sub-Architecture:PIC32 Silicon  Core Number:PIC32MX Kit Contents:Board Features:2-Wire (ICSP) Interface  SVHC:No SVHC (15-Dec-2010) Development Tool Type:Expansion Board Kit Features:JTAG Debugging, ICSP Development, and  Connection of PICtail Plus Daughter Cards Supported Devices:PIC32 Tool / Board Application:MCU Expansion Tool / Board Applications:Microcontroller Type:Expansion Board.  In total it seems like a nice development kit to me.  Tomas

  • It is not so good that a RoadTest, test bord, need a "Mother Board" for the RoadTester to have a chance, to get right measurements and the correct impression of the test board.

  • Aww just found this but the one I want to testdrive is closed. doh.

  • Just received board today.  I ordered a new DM320004 PIC32 ethernet starter kit to go with it.  My current PIC32 starter kit is embedded in a robot project, so I don't want to dismantle it.  I've got plenty of PICs around though, so I can probably wire something up while I'm waiting for the new board.  It will be interesting to compare to the mbed ethernet project I just finished.

  • Hi everyone.

    I recieved the board this friday and I'm currently playing around with it, and I will write the review soon.

    For now my experience with the board has been great, and it is indeed a great expansion board for the PIC32 board - it adds a lot of possibilites to ONE single board.

     

    Best Regards

  • This looks like a great board ...

  • Because Road Testers were not chosen yet.

  • Is anybody testing this at the moment. There is no-one in the list???
