MPLAB® - Starter Kit for Serial Memory

Microchip announces the MPLAB® Starter Kit for Serial Memory Products (Part number DV243003). Featuring a compact design, the high speed, easy to use kit supports all of Microchip’s serial EEPROM devices, including the new UNI/O™ family. The single-board kit is powered from the USB connection to a PC or laptop, so needs no external power supply. Running under the familiar MPLAB Integrated Development Environment (IDE), it simplifies set up and offers an almost instant learning curve for first time users, enabling faster debug and shorter time to market.

 

While many serial EEPROM tools are simply programmers, the MPLAB Starter Kit for Serial Memory Products displays the entire memory contents on screen, for quick verification and editing. It also logs endurance cycles and stores memory contents in files for archiving and analysis. Additionally, because the kit derives power over USB, operation is fast and offers greater portability, enabling the highest performance for a record low cost.
