INTRODUCTION
MRF24J40MA/MB PICtail/PICtail PLUS DAUGHTER BOARD CONTENTS
MRF24J40MA/MB PICtail/PICtail PLUS DAUGHTER BOARD
The MRF24J40MA/MB PICtail™/PICtail Plus Daughter Board is a demonstration and
development daughter board for the:
• MRF24J40MA IEEE 802.15.4 2.4 GHz RF Transceiver module, or
• MRF24J40MB 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 20 dBm RF Transceiver module
The daughter board can plug into multiple Microchip Technology demonstration and
development boards. For example, for 8-bit microcontroller development using the
PIC18 Explorer Board (DM183032) or for 16-bit microcontroller development using the
Explorer 16 Development Board (DM240001).
