UBMP4.3 is a simple, versatile, and inexpensive microcontroller development system for anyone.

UBMP4.3 was designed for learning or teaching PICmicro programming using either Microchip’s MPLAB X IDE or the cloud-based MPLAB Xpress IDE. Its USB bootloader allows UBMP4.3 to be programmed in C using almost any device – including Chromebooks!

UBMP4.3 Hardware Features

• Microchip PIC16F1459 USB-capable microcontroller with 8k words of program FLASH (6k words free when using the USB bootloader), 128B of user FLASH, 1kB of RAM, 10-bit ADC, and a built-in temperature sensor
• 5 built-in pushbuttons
• 5 visible light LEDs
• 1 piezo beeper output
• optional 8-pin header for PORTC I/O pin expansion (great for servos, a SONAR module, NeoPixels, an LCD display, etc.)
• optional IR LED output for remote control transmitter applications (or a high-current transistor-driven output)
• optional IR demodulator for remote control decoding
• optional IR phototransistor or visible-light ambient light sensor for light sensing
• USB 2.0 type-C port for power and programming (now works using USB-C to USB-C cables in addition to USB-A to USB-C cables/adapters)
• 6-pin ICSP (In-Circuit Serial Programming) header for PICkit-4
