PICDEM™ Mechatronics Demonstration Kit
system. Learn how to use PIC
enhance or replace a mechanical design.
The demonstration kit takes a hands-on approach to
learning about mechatronics. Jumper wires are
provided in the kit and allow the user to experiment
with connecting the PIC
components on the board. These components include
sensors, LEDs, human input devices and motor
drivers. The board comes with nine example projects
which include firmware, connection diagrams (for the
wire jumpers) and schematics.
