The PIC32CX-BZ3 and WBZ35x Curiosity board from Microchip is an all-in-one platform for testing the microcontroller and wireless functions of the WBZ35x multi-protocol MCU modules and the PIC32CX-BZ3 SoCs.
The PIC32CX-BZ3 and WBZ35x Curiosity board comes preconfigured with an out-of-the-box sensor application where data are sent over BluetoothĀ® LE. Additional Bluetooth and Zigbee 3.0 application examples are available in MPLAB Harmony v3.
In addition to the WBZ351 ArmĀ® CortexĀ®-M4F MCU module with PCB antenna, the PIC32CX-BZ3 and WBZ35x Curiosity board features the following connection interfaces and peripherals:
- mikroBUSā¢ socket
- RGB LED
- Ambient analog voltage temperature sensor
- User button and LED
- Onboard programmer/debugger circuit
- External 32.768-kHz crystal
- 64-Mbit QSPI Flash memory
- Li-Po battery management and charging circuit
An Xplained Pro header interface also enables connections to extension boards like the QT7 Xplained Pro extension kit. This can be used to evaluate the capacitive touch capabilities of the PIC32CX-BZ3 SoC for HMI applications.
