The Curiosity PIC64GX1000 Kit ES features a quad-core, 64-bit CPU cluster based on the RISC-V application-class processor that supports Linux^® and real-time applications, a rich set of peripherals. The kit is ready for rapid testing of applications in an easy-to-use hardware development platform and offers a MikroBUS™ expansion header for Click boards™, a ™ MIPI^® CSI 2 Rx connector, and an HDMI output.

The PIC64GX MPU family meets mid-range intelligent edge compute needs with a 64-bit RISC-V^® quad-core processor offering asymmetric multiprocessing and deterministic latencies. It features a configurable processor and memory subsystem to support secure boot and key management for military-grade security. The five-stage in-order pipeline is not vulnerable to Meltdown and Spectre exploits. Featuring a rich set of embedded peripherals and fully pin compatible with PolarFire^® SoC FPGAs, the PIC64GX is an excellent choice for developing power-efficient embedded-compute platforms.

The expansion boards can be controlled using protocols like I2C and SPI. 1GB of DDR4 memory is available as well as a microSD^® card slot for booting Linux. Communication interfaces include one Gigabit Ethernet connector and three UART connections via the USB type C connector and debug via the USB-to-JTAG channel.

Microchip Instrumentation Amplifier with mCAL Technology

The MCP6N11 and MCP6V2x Wheatstone Bridge Reference Design demonstrates the performance of Microchip's MCP6N11 instrumentation amplifier (INA) and a traditional three op amp INA using Microchip's MCP6V26 and MCP6V27 auto-zeroed op amps. The input signal comes from an RTD temperature sensor in a Wheatstone bridge. Real world interference is added to the bridge's output, to provide realistic performance comparisons. Data is gathered and displayed on a PC, for ease of use. The USB PIC® microcontroller and included Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides the means to configure the board and collect sample data.
