PICDEM™ LIN Demonstration Kit
The PICDEM LIN Demonstration Kit demonstrates the 
capabilities of several Microchip microcontrollers using 
the LIN bus protocol. It supports slave node 
applications with PIC16C432, PIC16C433, 
PIC16C7XX and master node applications with 
PIC16X8X and PIC18FXX8. PIC16C432 and 
PIC16C433 have on-board LIN transceivers according 
to LIN bus specification V1.2.
This kit can be used to develop LIN hardware and 
software modules; demonstrate the LIN protocol in 
simple distribution network; evaluate the PIC16C432 
LIN transceiver device; and quickly learn the LIN bus 
interface. Integrate/interface LIN bus into product for 
proof-of-concept demonstration.
Features
• 18, 28 and 40-pin DIP sockets (Although three 
sockets are provided, only one device may be used 
at a time.)
• On-board +12V regulator for direct input from 12V
• RS-232C socket and associated hardware for direct 
connection to RS-232C interface
• CAN bus interface
• Control panel interface for LIN bus master
• RF stage for keyless entry function
• Seat memory unit 
• Motor control slave unit
