PIC DEVELOPMENT BOARDS PIC16F84 PIC16F873

Summary of PIC DEVELOPMENT BOARDS PIC16F84 PIC16F873


This article describes two PIC microcontroller development boards: the PIC16F873 and the PIC16F84. The PIC16F873 board includes an LCD, keyboard, piezo sounder, Real Time Clock with backup power, I2C bus, and a potmeter for A/D conversion, utilizing Shane Tolmie's bootloader. The simpler PIC16F84 board features a keyboard and a 4-digit LED display, running demo software with a clock and calculator function.
