40 Pin PIC Terminal Development Board

Description: Want a serial LCD with some muscle? Maybe you just need a compact development board with a USB connection. This development board is what you've been looking for. The PIC-MT-USB uses a 40-Pin PIC at 20MHz, takes power from the USB port, communicates serially through the FTDI USB<->RS232 IC, interfaces directly to a backlit 2x16 character LCD, and leaves 16 general purpose IO pins for your wildest ideas. 

Take a look at the example code for a quick start into using the USB-Serial connection for directly printing to the LCD screen.

• FR-4, 1.5 mm (0.062"), green soldermask, white silkscreen component print
• 20MHz crystal
• LCD 16x2 alphanumeric display with backlight
• 2 Buttons
• Bi-color LED
• Power supply taken from USB port
• Virtual USB-RS232 port
• ICSP/ICD connector for programming with PIC Programmers and Debuggers (for PICs with ICD support)
• DIL40 microcontroller socket
• Four mounting holes
• Extension headers for PIC unused ports

Dimensions: 95x36mm (3.7x1.4")
