The dsPICDEM™ 2 Development Kit CD contains sample projects for each of the 
dsPIC DSC devices supported by the dsPICDEM™ 2 Development Board. These sam-
ple programs are intended to jump start your application development by showing you 
how to implement and configure dsPIC30F peripherals such as A/D converters, exter-
nal interrupts, timers, SPI, and UART interfaces and I/O ports. Complete C source code 
is provided that shows how to how to write interrupt service routines and how to use 
device control register structures for configuring peripherals and I/O ports. These sam-
ple C files are bundled into MPLAB IDE projects that let you begin work out of the box.

The sample application projects and source code were created with:

• MPLAB IDE v7.11

• MPLAB C30 v1.32

The sample application projects for each dsPIC30F device are located in the folder:

path/dsPICDEM 2 Development Kit/Example Software/

A host system is used to support the MPLAB IDE and ICD 2 development tools (as well 
as HyperTerminal® communication). Minimum requirements are:

• PC-compatible system with an Intel Pentium class or higher processor, or 

equivalent

• A minimum of 16 MB RAM
