The F1 Evaluation Platform is a simple development tool for Enhanced Mid-range PIC microcontrollers (PIC12F1xxx/PIC16F1xxx) and demonstrates the capabilities & low power enhancements of these new PIC microcontrollers. Included with a PICkit3 for quick programming, this kit provides a platform for general purpose development and gives you the ability to develop code for any PIC12F1xxx/PIC16F1xxx microcontroller. Quick & easy development is ensured with the integrated functionality including: prototyping area, LCD control, system current monitoring, temperature sensing, Real-Time-Clock, LED drive, button control, and BLDC motor control.
