Microchip 16-Bit Embedded Control Design Contest Evaluation Kit
Samples
Circuit Cellar has shipped
thousands of sample packs and has exhausted the supply provided by
Microchip. However, you can still order all the samples from Microchip. Go
to http://sample.microchip.com
and order the FREE samples you desire. Any 16-bit Microchip device may be
used for a valid design entry and you may use as many of them as possible to
enhance your score.
For your information, the
following samples were made available in the first
round of kits.
