Introduction to clicker 2 for PIC32MX

Clicker 2 for PIC32MX is a
compact dev. kit with two
mikroBUS sockets for
click board connectivity.
You can use it to quickly
build your own gadgets
with unique functionalities
and features. It carries
the PIC32MX460F512L,
a 32-bit MIPS M4K core
PIC32 microcontroller, two
indication LEDs, two general
purpose buttons, a reset
button, an on/off switch, a
li-polymer battery connector,
a USB Mini-B connector and
two mikroBUS socket. A
mikroProg connector and a
2x26 pinout for interfacing
with external electronics

are also provided. The

mikroBUS connector
consists of two 1x8 female
headers with SPI, I2C, UART,
RST, PWM, Analog and
Interrupt lines as well as
3.3V, 5V and GND power
lines. Clicker 2 for PIC32MX
board can be powered over a
USB cable.

USB power supply

You can also power the board using a Li-Polymer battery, via
on-board 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.
Figure 1-2: Connecting
Li-Polymer battery

USB
power supply
You can supply power to the board with a Mini-B 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.

NOTE click boards that use a 3.3V power supply can draw up to 750 mA of current, which is more current than a USB can supply
(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.

3. Programming the microcontroller

Figure 3-1:
PIC32MX460F512L
microcontroller

The microcontroller can be programmed in three ways:

01 Using USB HID mikroBootloader,
02 Using external mikroProg for PIC32MX programmer
03 Using external ICD2/3 programmer
Page 10

3.1 Programming with mikroBootloader

step 1 Connecting PIC32MX clicker

You can program the microcontroller with 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:
www.mikroe.com/downloads/get/2210/
clicker_2_pic32mx_bootloader_v100.zip

01

After the mikroBootloader software is downloaded, unzip it

to desired location and start it.

You can also

program it
with ICD2

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 PIC Software

The mikroProg programmer requires

special programming software called
mikroProg Suite for PIC. It can be
used for programming all Microchip
microcontroller families, including PIC10,
PIC12, PIC16, PIC18, dsPIC30/33,
PIC24 and PIC32. The software has
intuitive interface and SingleClick
programming technology. Just download
the latest version of mikroProg Suite
and 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.

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 by generating
a low voltage level on the
microcontrollers reset pin. LEDs can
be used for visual indication of the logic
state on two pins (RE3) and (RA10).
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 (RE4 and RG9) from logic high
(1) to logic low (0). In addition to the
onboard ON/OFF switch, two pads
(EXT and PSW) allow you to connect
your own external switch.

Clicker 2 for PIC18FJ features
LTC3586-1, a highly integrated power
management and battery charger IC
that includes a current limited switching
PowerPath manager. LTC3586 also
enables battery charging over a USB
connection.

6. Oscillators

Board is equipped with 8MHz and

32.7kHz crystal oscillators (X1
and X2) that provide external clock
waveforms to the microcontroller
OSC2 and OSC1 (X1) and SOSCO and
SOSCI (X2) 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.

Pads HDR1

Most microcontroller pins are available for further connectivity via two 1x26 rows of connection
pads on both sides of the clicker 2 for PIC32MX board. They are designed to match additional
shields, such as Battery Boost shield, Gaming, PROTO shield and others.

9.1 PWM jumper selection

Clicker 2 for PIC32MX employs a solution to optimize

Analog line

the use of available pins and MCU I/Os. The PWM

SEL jumper (Figure 9-2) enables two modes of
use for the second available PWM line:

Digital lines*

1 The default position of the jumper is for

applications when youre not using the PWM line on
the 1x26 pinout on the right side of the board. This
keeps this PWM available through mikroBUS 2
If you resolder the jumper into the second
position, it would turn the PWM line on mikroBUS
2 into a GPIO. You would use this in scenarios
where you already utilized the PWM through the
1x26 pinout (which would make the PWM pin on
mikroBUS 2 unusable)

9.2 RF3/USBID Jumper selection

Clicker 2 for PIC32MX employs a solution to
optimize the use of available pins and MCU I/Os.
The PWM SEL jumper (Figure 9-2) enables two
modes of use for the second available PWM line:

1 To use RF3 as a GPIO, keep the jumper in the

default position (connected to the corresponding
pin on the 1x26 connection pad, see page 26)
2 To connect the RF3 MCU pin to USB-ID (one of
the four pins on the USB port), resolder the RF3 SEL
jumper (zero-ohm resistor) to the other position.

10. click boards are plug and play!

Up to now, MikroElektronika
has released more than a 100
mikroBUS compatible click
boards. On the average, one
click board is released per week.
It is our intention to provide you
with as many add-on boards as
possible, so you will be able to
expand your development board
with additional functionality.
Each board comes with a set of
working example code. Please
visit the click boards webpage
for the complete list of currently
available boards:
