MODIFICATIONS FOR SPECIFIC DAUGHTER BOARDS

The configuration resistor changes that are required to make the development board
function with available PICtail Plus daughter boards are listed below. This list is com-
plete for compatible boards that were available at the time of publication. Note that
some daughter boards are compatible as provided, and that no modifications are
required.

Daughter boards released by Microchip subsequent to this publication may be compat-
ible with the development board. The user may use the schematics in Appendix A and
the daughter board to verify signal compatibility.

B.3.1

Fast 100 Mbps Ethernet Daughter Board (AC164132)

Three hardware changes are required:

• Enable PMP Data 10 (PMD10) by populating R61 and removing R51

• Enable PMP Data 11 (PMD11) by populating R60 and removing R44

• Enable PMP CS signal (PMCS1) by populating R58 and removing R57

B.3.2

PICtail Board for SD & MMC (AC164122)

Two hardware changes are required:

• Enable Write Protect (WD) by populating R51 (default) and removing R61

• Enable Card Detect (CD) by populating R60 (default) and removing R44

B.3.3

MRF49XA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board (AC164137-1 and
AC164137-2)

One hardware change is required:

• Enable EEPROM Chip Select (EE_nCS) by populating R51 (default) and

removing R61

B.3.4
