Matrix: Upstream Board – PIC Programmer

Product Code: BL0011

Description

The Upstream Board – PIC Programmer (BL0011) can be used with various programming languages including Assembly, C and Flowcode. To program the PIC on the board, a free tool called mLoader is available to download.

The board comes with a powerful PIC16F18877 microcontroller. The board presents all port pins collected together as E-blocks2 sockets.  The board takes power from an external power supply or from the micro USB port.

Ghost:

The E-blocks2 board is compatible with Ghost technology.  Using the board with Flowcode allows the use of the advanced Ghost debugging features including in-circuit debugging, real-time pin monitoring and bus decoding.

New features in E-blocks2 include: 

  • Power now routed via the connector – no more flying leads
  • Board auto-ID functionality
  • Flowcode automatic project set up
  • Smaller footprint using up to date surface mount technology
  • Overcurrent resettable fuse protection

If using this board with First Generation downstream E-blocks, then you will need an E-blocks2 upstream to E-blocks downstream connector.
