PIC18F87J72 Evaluation Board Lab Test Results
5.1
INTRODUCTION
This chapter provides the various laboratory test results obtained when using the
PIC18F87J72 Evaluation Board. This chapter also describes the use of the Data
Monitor and Control Interface (DMCI) window to plot the waveforms present on
Channel CH0 and CH1 of the evaluation board. Displaying waveforms on the DMCI
window can only be done when the user is working in Debugging mode. In Debugging
mode, the MPLAB IDE needs to be uploaded and the debugger connected to the RJ11
connector of the PIC18F87J72 Evaluation Board. 
Figure 5-1 shows two graphs (i.e., Graph 1 and Graph 2). Graph 1 shows the waveform
created on Channel CH0 of the PIC18F87J72 Evaluation Board. Graph 2 shows the
waveform created on Channel CH1 of the PIC18F87J72 Evaluation Board. CH0 and
CH1 are both connected to the same signal of 300 mV. The internal PGA gain is chosen
to be 8 for CH0 and 1 for Channel CH1.
