 So we're here at Microchip here at Embedder World and who are you? Hi, my name is Christine Friesman, I work in Development Tools. And you said here your favorite development tool just got better, is this the previous generation the favorite development tool for who? Yeah, so the Pickett series of debuggers that Microchip has had has been around for at least 15 years and it's been our best selling debugging tool. So it's debugging what kind of chips? So it debugs all of our Pickett and DSPIC chips and the Pickett 4 will also has debugging protocols, serial wire debugging will also debug our CEC-1702 series which is an ARM device. So how does it work? Where do you connect it and what happens then? So it's to connect to a computer and start debugging? Exactly, so you can connect it through a USB cable and that goes to your computer and then you connect this to your target board. This is an 8 pin serial inline header. The previous version had 6 pins, this one has 8 pin so that we can support other debugging protocols in the future. What could that be for example? Well one of them is the serial wire debug and the other one is the same. Are you debugging the whole range? No we're not, right now it's the CEC-1702. What are these boards right here? So these boards are Explorer 1632 boards and what this demo is doing is showing you how much faster the Pickett 4 debugs or how much faster programs when compared to the Pickett 3. So we have a Pick 32MZ device on this board with two megabytes of memory and we're erasing and reprogramming with this and you can see the Pickett 4 does this in 20 seconds and the Pickett 3 takes 151 seconds. How popular is this Pickett 3? It's very popular, it's our most popular debugger to date. Tens of thousands of people, millions of people? Hundreds of thousands of people are using this right now and they'll be happy that they'll be able to get 7 time faster debugging. Oh yeah, because what it does is it allows them if they want to just use basic debugging on one of our 32 bit devices with the high memory size it allows them to do that. And so how much it costs? It's not free. It's not free? No. It's $47.95 so it's exactly the same price as the Pickett 3. Why is it $47.95? Is there a reason for that? That was a good price point. Alright, so it's available now? It is available now. It went for sale yesterday. We put out the press release yesterday morning. And if people come to the show they can get 25% off the Pickett 4 and the ICD 4. So when people develop projects and stuff like that, they need to debug but they also need, what do they need? Development boards? What are the other things? Yeah, if they develop a project what's really great is we have for rapid prototyping we have these curiosity boards over here. So the curiosity boards you can pick which type of microprocessor you want to start out with and these boards are fairly generic and then you put on what we have are these click boards. So depending on your application you can get started very quickly by adding a click board. What is this one? Oh, I'm not sure exactly. There's a water-detect click. Oh, well you know that one's a water- So what does that mean? It detects water? It must, yeah. There's a whole, there's many different kinds of click boards. Thermo, Wi-Fi, IRDA. They do a lot of different things. All kinds of stuff. So you've got Mora on here, yeah. And some of these are Bluetooth modules. Wi-Fi, Skywire. So tons of ideas people can have and there's more right here. Yeah, these are all, yeah. All made by Microchip or made by partners? No, this is made by a partner of ours, Microelectronica. Just one partner. All these? All of these, yes. All right. So these plug into where? They plug into these little headers they have on these Curiosity boards. You can also see we have them on some of the Explained boards as well. Yeah, just up over here. So what's the, Curiosity is a bigger board than the X-Made or? You call this X-Made? Well, X-Made boards has different types. Nanos, minis, pros. So they have different sizes for the different type. And then, but for these ones in particular, they're able to put on the click boards as well. So they do different stuff. Explained is different stuff than Curiosity. Yeah, so Explained is going to have an AVR chip on it or a SAM device on it. So it depends. This one has a SAM D21 on it. Which is the ARM? Right, which is an ARM device. And then this one has an AVR and I don't know exactly which chips on that one. I can't see it. But, yeah. And then all the Curiosity boards are all pick based. Do you know some of the stuff that they're showing on the 32-bit controller over there? Um, I haven't seen it. Okay, cool. Sorry. But I was just wondering if it's, okay, if it might be plugged in, plugged out. It might be similar. Probably similar, yeah. And so how popular is the whole Curiosity and Explained? They're very popular. Is it the main, the block of boards for microchips? Yes, it is now. It's some of our most popular boards are coming out. And they're relatively inexpensive as well. So they start around $20 and they go up to around $50. Yeah.
