LAB-XUSB Experimenter Board - $179.95  (assembled)

Purchase at mcumart.com

The LAB-XUSB is a platform for experimenting with PIC® microcontroller (MCU) applications. It contains the circuitry required by the PIC® MCU to operate: 5-volt power supply, oscillator, reset circuit, as well as additional application circuits including switches, potentiometers, LEDs, LCD module, RS232 interface, USB interface and speaker, among others. A prototyping area is also included in case we missed your favorite circuit.

Many different projects may be created using the LAB-XUSB. Some examples include a calculator, LCD clock, digital thermometer, LCD backpack, data logger and many more. All of the PIC MCU I/O pins are brought out to a header that allows connection to off-board circuits.

The LAB-X1 can run programs written in assembler, C and PICBASIC™ or PICBASIC PRO™.  It includes an in-circuit programming connector so the resident PIC MCU may be reprogrammed on the fly (requires flash device) using programmers that support this feature like the EPIC™ Programmer and the melabs Serial Programmer.

HIDmakerUse HIDmaker FS to generate FULL SPEED USB code for the  PIC18F4550 on the LAB-XUSB!  Creates USB code for the host PC as well!

The LAB-XUSB is designed to work with 40-pin PIC MCUs and is available in either assembled or bare-board form. A parts list and schematic, along with PICBASIC(TM) and PICBASIC PRO(TM) example programs, are included. It has the following features:

The LAB-XUSB includes in-circuit programming connectors so the resident PICmicro MCU may be reprogrammed on the fly (requires flash device) using programmers that support this feature. Because the LAB-XUSB itself is not a programmer, a separate PICmicro microcontroller programmer, such as the melabs USB Programmer is required to program a PICmicro MCU.

Connect to the Microchip ICD or ICD2!

The LAB-XUSB is designed to work with 40-pin PICmicro MCUs.  It is recommended the LAB-X1 be used with the 40-pin PIC18F4550. This flash device has is equipped with the USB module necessary to build USB peripherals.

Compatible with 40-pin:  PIC16C64(A), 16C65(B), 16C662, 16C67, 16C74(AB), 16C765, 16C77, 16C774, 16F74, 16F747, 16F77, 16F777, 16F871, 16F874, 16F874A, 16F877, 16F877A, 16F884, 16F887, 16F914, 16F917, 18C442, 18C452, 18F4220, 18F4221, 18F4320, 18F4321, 18F4331, 18F4410, 18F442, 18F4420, 18F4423, 18F4431, 18F4439, 18F4450, 18F4455, 18F448, 18F4480, 18F4510, 18F4515, 18F452, 18F4520, 18F4523, 18F4525, 18F4539, 18F4550, 18F458, 18F4580, 18F4585, 18F4610, 18F4620, 18F4680, 18F4682, 18F4685
