Alternatively, a PIC32 Starter Kit with a PIC32 I/O Expansion Board can be used. With the appropriate hardware available, download the Microchip TCP/IP Stack and follow the Getting Started chapter of the TCP/IP Stack Help. TCP/IP Stack and Firmware The Microchip TCP/IP stack and other firmware examples can be downloaded with the Microchip Application Libraries at http://www.microchip.com/mal. Support for the MRF24WB0MA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board is in TCP/IP Stack version 5.25 and later (Microchip Application Libraries v2010-04-28 or later). Once installed, a link to the TCP/IP Stack Help will be placed in your Start Menu. 2 TABLE 1: SIGNAL INTERFACE Function I/O PICtail™ Pin PICtail Plus Pin Description CS I RC2 RB2 SPI Chip Select SCK I RC3/SCK RF6/SCK1 SPI Clock SDO O RC4/SDI RF7/SDI1 SPI Data Out from MRF24WB0MA SDI I RC5/SDO RF8/SDO1 SPI Data In to MRF24WB0MA INT O RB0INT0 RE8/INT1 Open Drain Interrupt Signal to Microcontroller RESET I RB1 RF0 Reset Signal to MRF24WB0MA HIBERNATE I RB2 RF1 Hibernate Signal to MRF24WB0MA Wireless Router Configuration Microchip Technology Inc. • 2355 West Chandler Blvd. • Chandler, AZ 85224-6199 www.microchip.com The Microchip name and logo, the Microchip logo, and MPLAB are registered trademarks of Microchip Technology Incorporated in the U.S.A. and other countries.
