Supported with application examples in MCC

With full program and debug capabilities, the PIC16F18446 Curiosity Nano evaluation kit offers complete support for your next design. 

With the award-winning MPLAB X integrated development platform and MPLAB Code Configurator (MCC), the kit provides access to the Intelligent analog and Core Independent Peripherals on the PIC16F18446.  MCC is a free, graphical programming tool to configure the rich set of peripherals and functions specific for your application.  

Curiosity Nano Quick Start MPLAB® Xpress

Steps to start exploring the Curiosity Nano platform with MPLAB Xpress:

1. Download MPLAB Xpress.

2. Create a new standalone project for PIC16F18446.

3. Use the MPLAB Xpress Code Configurator, or write your own code.

4. Compile and download your application HEX file.

5. Connect a USB cable (Standard-A to Micro-B or Micro-AB) between the PC and the debug USB

port on the kit.

6. Copy the application HEX file into the CURIOSITY mass storage drive to program the application

into the PIC16F18446.
