INTRODUCTION
HIGHLIGHTS
Chapter 1. PICDEM™ Mechatronics
The PICDEM™ Mechatronics is intended to be a learning tool for individuals interested
in Mechatronic design. Mechatronics refers to integrating electronic controls into
mechanical systems or replacing mechanical components with an electronic solution.
PICmicro
size, high efficiency, speed and abundance of peripheral configurations. Mechatronic
systems range in complexity from a simple electromechanical switch with output
multiplexing to the complex stabilizer control of a supersonic jet. The appliance and
automotive markets are notable markets in which mechatronic designs are becoming
more common place. The modern washing machine, for instance, once an entirely
mechanical design, incorporates microcontrollers to manage cycle times, read human
inputs and regulate the speed of the agitate and spin cycles.
This chapter introduces the PICDEM™ Mechatronics development board. It describes
the PCB layout, parts and electrical connection to the PICkit™ 2 Flash Programmer
and MPLAB ICD 2 In-Circuit Debugger.
