1. Power supply

You can supply power to the board with a micro USB cable provided

in the package. On-board voltage regulators provide the appropriate

voltage levels to each component on the board. Power LED (GREEN)

will indicate the presence of power supply.

You can also power the board using a Li-Polymer battery, via onboard

battery connector. On-board battery charger circuit enables you

to charge the battery over USB connection. LED diode (RED) will

indicate when battery is charging. Charging current is ~300mA and

charging voltage is 4.2V DC.t

Battery power supply

USBpower supply

Figure 1-1: Connecting USB power supply

Figure 1-2: Connecting Li-Polymer battery

Some click boards need more current than the USB connection can supply. For 3.3V clicks, the upper limit is 750 mA; for 5V clicks, it’s 500

mA. In those cases you would need to use the battery as the power supply, or the vsys pin on the side of the board.

Page 10

You can program the microcontroller with a bootloader

which is preprogrammed by default. To transfer .hex

file from a PC to MCU you need bootloader software

(mikroBootloader USB HID) which can be downloaded

from:

To start, connect the USB cable, or if already connected press the Reset button on your clicker 2 for dsPIC33. Click the Connect button within 5s to enter the bootloader mode, otherwise existing microcontroller program will execute.

After the mikroBootloader software is downloaded,

unzip it to desired location and start it.

The microcontroller can be programmed with external mikroProg

for PIC programmer and mikroProg Suite for PIC software.

The external programmer is connected to the development

system via 1x5 connector Figure 3-9. mikroProg is a fast USB

2.0 programmer with hardware debugger support. It supports

PIC10®, dsPIC30/33®, PIC24® and PIC32® devices in a single

programmer. It supports over 570 microcontrollers

from Microchip®. Outstanding performance,

easy operation and elegant design are its key

features.

mikroProg Suite for dsPIC® software

mikroProg programmer requires

special programming software called

mikroProg Suite for dsPIC®. This

software is used for programming

of ALL Microchip® microcontroller

families, including PIC10®, PIC12®,

PIC16®, PIC18®, dsPIC30/33®, PIC24®

and PIC32®. Software has intuitive

interface and SingleClick™ programming

technology. Just by downloading the

latest version of mikroProg Suite your

programmer is ready to program new

devices. mikroProg Suite is updated

regularly, at least four times a year, so

your programmer will be more and more

powerful with each new release.

Figure 4-1: Two LEDs, two buttons and a reset button

4. Buttons and LEDs

The board also contains a 01 reset button and a

pair of 02 buttons and 03 LEDs, as well

as an ON/OFF switch. The

RESET button is used

to manually reset

the microcontroller—

it generates a low

voltage level on the

microcontroller’s reset pin.

LEDs can be used for visual

indication of the logic state on

two pins (RA0 and RG9). An active

LED indicates that a logic high (1) is

present on the pin. Pressing any of the

two buttons can change the logic state of the

microcontroller pins (T2 and T3) from logic high

(1) to logic low (0).03 02 01

5. Power management and battery charger

clicker 2 for dsPIC33 features LTC®3586-2,

a highly integrated power management and

battery charger IC that includes a current

limited switching PowerPath manager.

LTC®3586 also enables battery charging

over a USB connection.

Figure 5-1: power management and battery charger IC

Page 18

6. Oscillators

Board is equipped with 8MHz crystal oscillator (X1) circuit that provides

external clock waveform to the

microcontroller OSC1 and OSC2 pins.

This base frequency is suitable for further

clock multipliers and ideal for generation

of necessary USB clock, which ensures

proper operation of bootloader and your

custom USB-based applications. And the

32. TK MHz oscillator (X2), a Real-Time

Clock and Calendar (RTCC) module.

Figure 6-1:8MHz crystal oscillator module (X1) and 32.768 KHz crystal oscillator

Page 19

dsPIC33 microcontrollers has an integrated USB

module, which enables you to implement USB

communication functionality to your clicker 2 board.

Connection with target USB host is done over a

micro USB connector which is positioned next to the

battery connector.
