Overview
The mikroMedia™ for PIC32 is a compact development system loaded with onboard peripherals for all-around multimedia development on a 32-bit PIC32MX460F512L microcontroller. Capable of being used for both development or as a final product, it comes with integrated modules such as stereo MP3 codec, TFT 320x240 touch screen display, accelerometer, USB connector, audio connector, MMC/SD card slot, 8 Mbit flash memory, 2x26 connection pads and many others. The VS1053 stereo MP3 codecs can decode MP3/WMA/AAC/eAAC+/Ogg Vorbis/WAV files from an MMC card. Pre-programmed with the fast USB Bootloader, the microcontroller does not need any external programmer for development.
The compact pocket-fit size makes the mikroMedia™ for PIC32 an excellent choice for mobile applications. With a simple press, the reset button on the board enables the user to reset the circuit. It also contains a microSD card slot to support the use of microSD cards in the projects.
Support for TFT 320x240 Display
The mikroMedia™ for PIC32 features a large TFT 32 x 240 display sheltered in a resistive touch panel. This functional touch screen allows data to enter and provide display at the same time. The current consumption with backlight on is 56.2 mA (backlight consumption is 42 mA). It displays graphics in 262,144 different colours.
PIC32MX460F512L Microcontroller
The mikroMedia™ for PIC32 development system includes high-performance PIC32MX460F512L microcontroller. It comes with integrated modules, and makes a great choice for developing applications with multimedia content when used in combination with other on-board modules. Featuring a 32-bit MIPS M4K core, this microcontroller features an 80 MHz frequency with 512 KB of program memory, 12 K boot flash; 32 K of RAM memory; 85 I/O pins, etc.
Power Supply Options
The mikroMedia™ for PIC32 board can be powered using the provided Mini-B USB cable or using a Li-Polymer battery via the on-board battery connector. When using the Mini-B USB cable, on-board voltage regulators will provide the appropriate voltage levels to each part of the board. An MCP73832 battery charger circuit facilitates user to charge the battery over USB connection.
