dsPIC33 16-Bit Microcontroller MPLAB Starter Kit

The MPLAB Starter Kit for Digital Powerkit uses the dsPIC33EP64GS502 DSC to implement a buck converter and a boost converter. It is a digitally controlled power supply board that consists of one independent DC/DC synchronous Buck converter and one independent DC/DC Boost converter.Each convertercan drive its on-board MOSFETcontrolled resistive load or an external load. The board hasan LCD display for voltage, current, temperature and faultconditions, and an integrated programmer/debugger, allpowered by the included 9 V power supply.
