PLUGGING INTO THE EXPLORER 16 DEVELOPMENT BOARD
The MRF89XAMxA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board can be plugged into the 
Explorer 16 Development Board as shown in Figure 2-2
The MRF89XAMxA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board’s 30-pin card edge connector 
is  plugged into the top section of the PICtail Plus connector. This  will connect to the 
SPI Port 1 on the PIC
®
 microcontroller that is plugged into the Plug In Module (PIM) 
socket. 
The MRF89XAMxA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board’s 30-pin card edge connector  
is plugged into the mid-section of the PICtail Plus connector. This will connect to the 
SPI Port 2 on the PIC microcontroller that is plugged into the PIM socket.
