The PIC32CK SG Curiosity Ultra kit from Microchip is a hardware development platform for designs using the PIC32CK SG, an Arm® Cortex®-M33 core-based microcontroller with Arm TrustZone technology and an integrated hardware security module (HSM).
The HSM provides the cryptographic hardware acceleration, key storage, and true random number generation capabilities required for implementing a wide range of security functions, including:
- Secure boot
- Secure TLS
- Encryption/decryption
Developers can expand the Curiosity Ultra kit functionality through Arduino Uno R3, Mikroe Bus, or Xplained Pro-compatible expansion boards.
Key features of the board include:
- PIC32CK2051SG01144 MCU
- Real-time programming and debugging
- Graphics interface
- 100/10 Mbytes/s Ethernet
- High-Speed USB Type-C® connection
- Full-Speed USB connection
The DT100104 from Microchip is an add-on board for the CryptoAuth Trust Platform and other Microchip development platforms that contain a mikroBUSTM header. The board can be used to develop prototypes for applications which use the ATECC608B or ATECC08C CryptoauthenticationTM secure elements. This board offers an alternative to sample units that require a socket board for initial development and testing.
The DT100104 board features eight ATECC608C secure elements which are specified to provide Trust&GO, TrustFLEX, TrustCUSTOM, and TrustMANAGER functions. The board is supported by a user guide which provides a physical overview of the connections and switch settings implemented on the board.
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 Bluetooth® LE. Additional Bluetooth and Zigbee 3.0 application examples are available in MPLAB Harmony v3.
In addition to the WBZ351 Arm® Cortex®-M4F MCU module with PCB antenna, the PIC32CX-BZ3 and WBZ35x Curiosity board features the following connection interfaces and peripherals:
- mikroBUS™ 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.
