NU32: Quickstart
From Mech
This is a quick-start guide to programming the NU32, using the bootloader and the PICkit3.
Before you start
You should complete the instructions in NU32: Software to Install if you have not already. Specifically, you need to
- download and install the MPLAB X IDE and the MPLAB XC32 Compiler
- download the NU32 Utility computer application
- install drivers for the FTDI USB-to-Serial chip
Test the bootloader
Use the NU32 Utility to load NU32_HelloWorld.hex to test your NU32 and the Utility.
Test MPLAB X
Use the NU32_HelloWorld_files.zip to create a project for the NU32 and compile in MPLAB X with XC32.
Test the PICkit3
If you don't want to use the bootloader and the Utility, and have a PICkit3 programmer, you can program the NU32 from MPLAB X. Build a project with NU32_HelloWorld_standalone_files.zip.
Projects with the standard NU32 functions
Use NU32_BasicTemplate.zip to start all of your projects.
