Lab X3

The LAB-X3 provides a full complement of hardware peripherals for an 18-pin microcontroller such as the PIC16F84 or PIC16F628. The LAB-X3 contains the circuitry required by the PICmicro® MCU to operate: 5-volt power supply, oscillator, reset circuit, as well as an RS-232 serial port, 2-line x 20-character LCD module, and basic analog and digital I/O. The board is designed to accommodate 18-pin MCUs, including the popular PIC16F84A and the new PIC16F62x.

  • Inputs: 1 pushbutton, 1 potentiometer
  • Outputs: 2 LEDs, 1 RC servo connector, 2x20 LCD module
  • I/O: RS232 interface
  • Misc: Reset button (may be programmed as input with the 16F62x MCUs), 5-volt regulator, 4MHz crystal oscillator
  • In-circuit programming connector
  • Prototyping area for additional circuits

Many different projects may be created using the LAB-X3. The LAB-X3 can run programs written in assembler, C,  PicBasic, PicBasic Pro and Proton BASIC.

The in-circuit programming connector allows the resident PICmicro® MCU to be reprogrammed on the fly (requires flash device) using programmers that support this feature like the EPIC Plus or Serial Programmer. It is recommended the LAB-X3 be used with the 18-pin PIC16F628A or PIC16F84A. These flash devices may be reprogrammed again and again.
