[Kirill] wrote in to share his Arduino-based PIC programmer. It is capable of writing to the 18F family of chips, including 18F2XXX and 18F4XXX. We think that’s pretty exciting because this line of ...

This projects enables programming PIC devices using Arduino only i.e. it should (in ideal cases) replace pickit and other programming devices. It currently only supports a very small number of devices ...

As my projects became increasingly complex (and required more discrete components), I decided to migrate several of them from "discrete" electronics to microcontrollers. During this transition, I ...

For those of you who are looking to put some power behind your Arduino shields, Digilent just released their chipKIT Max32 prototyping platform. The board features a Pic 32 microcontroller, USB ...

A lot of people disparage PIC microcontrollers but—as I now know to my cost—these little rascals have an addictive quality about them. They can make life incredibly easy with respect to prototyping ...

Not only is chipKIT the first Arduino-compatible platform to provide 32-bit performance, but Microchip’s PIC32 microcontroller is also the highest performance 32-bit microcontroller in its class, ...

chipKIT Platform Expands With Prototyping-Friendly PIC32-based Boards From Digilent, FUBAR Labs and Schmalz Haus; PIC32 MCUs With chipKIT USB Bootloader Also Available Digilent's chipKIT DP32 board ...

The folks from Microchip and Digilent have just launched the first 32-bit-microcontroller-based, open-source development platform that is compatible with Arduino hardware and software. Designed and ...

“The adoption of the ATmega4809 in the next-generation Arduino board strengthens our partnership…” said Microchip v-p 8bit MCUs Steve Drehobl. Sadly, there are no other clues to what sort of Arduino ...

I missed this one before, when it was announced at Electronica: the Uno SPE Shield, created by Arduino and Microchip working together. It turns out, though, that it wasn't available back then. And it ...
