Summary of MULTI-PURPOSE PICMICRO TEST BOARDS

This article describes a versatile Picmicro test and development board supporting 8, 18, 28, and 40-pin microcontrollers. The design utilizes a PCI socket adapter to create a flexible interface for various chip sizes, featuring a multi-port distribution system with four comb connectors containing twelve ports each. This setup allows for common inputs and outputs while accommodating ISCP (In-Circuit Serial Programming) connections and additional apparatus via on-board links.

Parts used in the Multiboard:

  • PCI socket
  • Old PC (for desoldering)
  • Super plate Nocturne
  • Multiboard distributing connector ports
  • Four combs with 12 ports each
  • PIC microcontrollers (8, 18, 28, and 40 pins)
  • On-board outputs with links
  • USB and RS232 interfaces
  • ISCP connection points

18 pin 28 pin 40 pin microcontroller series for a very pic usb rs232 multi-purpose development, test circuit ISCP has links with the on-board outputs can be connected upside additional apparatus has all the pcb files

The Picmicro Test Boards uses a PCI socket and even had an old PC to tear desoldering it, build super plate Nocturne and then solder the socket made me ponder a compromise, but flexible, which serve with little exfuerzo for common PIC (8, 18, 28 and 40 pins for example) through the socket to pin connector. Thus was born the Multiboard distributing connector ports in 4 combs 12 each, the first would have common inputs and outputs and the rest would be used or not according to CIP.
