Microchip Xpress Dev Board | DigiKey Daily
Microchip has moved their well known MPLAB IDE to the cloud as the simplified MPLAB XPress and the MPLAB XPress Development board provides the perfect environment to explore this simplified IDE. With a library of Microchip-validated code to pull from, designers can get a head start on creating a wide range of custom applications. The MPLAB Xpress requires no downloads, software or drivers to get started, and allows users to compile their code in the cloud for free. The development board is based around the 28 pin PIC16F18855 8-bit microcontroller, has all pins broken out, features LEDs, a pushbutton switch, potentiometer and is connected to the computer via USB.
