Using the MPLAB IDE with the chipKIT Pro MX7 Development Board

MPLAB IDE® is Microchip’s popular integrated development environment. In this appendix, the steps for using the chipKIT Pro MX7 board with MPLAB IDE and Microchip’s C32 compiler are shown. The chipKIT MX3 development board cannot be used directly with the MPLAB IDE, and additional programming hardware (e.g., Microchip PICkit 3) is required. chipKIT Pro MX7 is however, a more advanced development board and can be used directly with the MPLAB IDE.

In this appendix, a simple program example is given that flashes LED 1 on the chipKIT Pro MX7 development board using the MPLAB IDE and the C32 compiler. Readers who wish to carry out their developments using the MPLAB IDE environment ...
