Fast 100 Mbps Ethernet PICtail™ Plus Daughter Board
Overview
The Fast 100 Mbps Ethernet PICtail™ Plus Daughter Board (AC164132) is an Ethernet 
demonstration board for evaluating Microchip Technology’s ENC424J600 and ENC624J600 
stand-alone 10/100 Ethernet controllers. It is an expansion board compatible with many 
PICtail and PICtail Plus host boards, including the Explorer 16, PIC32 I/O Expansion Board, 
PICDEM.net™ 2 and PIC18 Explorer development boards.
Features
• ENC624J600 10/100 Ethernet Controller with factory preprogrammed MAC address (see 
“ENC424J600/624J600 Data Sheet” (DS39935) for additional information)
• 25 MHz oscillator and integrated magnetic RJ-45 connector
• PICtail Plus Daughter Board edge contacts for SPI or PSP connection to Explorer 16 and 
PIC32 I/O Expansion Boards
• PICtail Daughter Board headers for SPI connection to PICDEM.net 2 and PIC18 Explorer 
Boards
• Configuration jumpers for PSP Modes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9 and 10 under PMP control with 
automatic pinout remapping
• Current monitoring jumper
• Ethernet crossover switches
• 3.3V LDO regulator with shutdown for very low Sleep current
• 3.3V to 5V SPI level translation for the PIC18 Explorer
• SSL encryption add-on software CD for the Microchip TCP/IP Stack
Getting Started
The Fast 100 Mbps Ethernet PICtail Plus Daughter Board must be plugged into a Microchip 
Explorer 16, PIC32 I/O Expansion Board (with suitable PIC32 Starter Kit), PICDEM.net 2 or 
PIC18 Explorer development board. However, before making any connections, ensure that 
the JP2, “I SENSE”, jumper has a shunt installed, shorting the two pins.
The connection to the host motherboard differs based on the interface mode desired and 
motherboard type.
Explorer 16
For purposes of getting started, use the ENC624J600 in SPI mode. To do this, insert the 
Fast 100 Mbps Ethernet PICtail Plus J2 side edge contacts into the topmost position of 
the J5 slot on the Explorer 16. Pin 1 on J2 of the PICtail Daughter Board should align with 
Pin 1 on J5 of the Explorer 16. The Ethernet cable will connect to the PICtail Daughter 
Board on the side closest to the Explorer 16 Board’s four push buttons.
PIC32 I/O Expansion Board
The PIC32 I/O Expansion Board is very similar to the Explorer 16. If using a 
PIC32MX360F512L based Starter Kit, insert the Fast 100 Mbps Ethernet PICtail Plus J2 
side edge contacts into the topmost position of the J4 or J2 slots on the PIC32 I/O Expan-
sion Board. Pin 1 of J2 on the PICtail Daughter Board should align with the Pin 1 slot on 
the PIC32 I/O Expansion Board. If using a PIC32MX460F512L based PIC32 USB Starter 
Board, insert the PICtail Daughter Board’s J2 connector into the middle position of J4 or 
J2. This will result in Pin 1 of J2 on the PICtail Daughter Board aligning with Pin 33 on the 
PIC32 I/O Expansion Board.
PICDEM.net 2
The PICDEM.net 2 uses the PICtail Daughter Board thru-hole headers to interface using 
SPI mode. To make this connection, insert the Fast 100 Mbps Ethernet PICtail Plus J4 
right angle header into the J5 female header on the PICDEM.net 2. Pin 1 on J4 of the 
PICtail Daughter Board, labeled “RE2”, must align with Pin 1 on J5 of the PICDEM.net 2 
(also labeled “RE2”). This correct orientation does not connect the 2x3 J3 header to 
anything. The Ethernet cable will enter the PICtail Daughter Board from the same 
PICDEM.net 2 board edge that contains the two 10Base-T Ethernet jacks.
