mikromedia for dsPIC33®is a compact
development system with lots of on-board
peripheralswhichallow development of devices
with multimedia contents. The central part of
the system is a 16-bit dsPIC33FJ256GP710A
microcontroller. mikromedia for dsPIC33
features integrated modules such as stereo
MP3 codec, TFT 320x240 touch screen
display, accelerometer, USB connector, audio
connector, MMC/SD card slot, 8 Mbit ash
memory, 2x26 connection pads and other. It
comes pre-programmed with UART bootloader,
but can also be programmed with external
programmers, such as mikroProg™or ICD2/3.
Mikromedia is compact and slim, and perfectly
ts in the palm of the hand, which makes it a
convenient platform for mobile devices.

Programming with mikroBootloader
You can program the microcontroller with the bootloader which
is preprogrammed into the device by default. To transfer .HEX
le from a PC to MCU you need bootloader software (ds30
Loader) which can be downloaded from:
Upon download, unzip the le to the desired location and start
ds30 Loader software.

Programming with mikroProg™programmer
Figure 3-12:
Connecting mikroProg™to mikromedia™
The microcontroller can be programmed with mikroProg™programmer and mikroProg Suite™fo PIC®software.
The mikroProg™programmer is connected to the development system via the CN6 connector, Figure 3-12.
mikroProg™is a fast USB 2.0
programmer with mikroICD™
hardware In-Circuit Debugger.
Smart engineering allows mikroProg™
to support PIC10®, PIC12®, PIC16®, PIC18®,
dsPIC30/33®, PIC24®and PIC32®devices in a single
programmer. It supports over 570 microcontrollers from
Microchip®. Outstanding performance, easy operation and
elegant design are it’s key features.

Page 19
mikroProg Suite™for PIC®software
mikroProg™programmer requires special
programming software called mikroProg
Suite™for PIC®. This software is used
for programming all Microchip®microcon-
troller families, including PIC10®, PIC12®,
PIC16®, PIC18®, dsPIC30/33®, PIC24®
and PIC32®. Software has intuitive
interface and SingleClick™programming
technology. Just by downloading the
latest version of mikroProg Suite™your
programmer is ready to program new
devices. mikroProg Suite™is updated
regularly, at least four times a year, so
your programmer will be more and more
powerful with each new release.
Figure 3-13: Main Window of mikroProg Suite™for PIC®programming software

Page 20
The microcontroller can be
also programmed with ICD2®
or ICD3®programmer. These
programmers connects with
mikromedia board via ICD2
CONNECTOR BOARD.
Programming with
ICD2®or ICD3®
programmer
In order to enable the ICD2®and ICD3®programmers to be connected to the development system, it is
necessary to provide an appropriate connector such as the ICD2 CONNECTOR BOARD. This connector should
be rst soldered on the CN5 connector. Then you should plug the ICD2®or ICD3®programmer into it, Figure 3-14.

Connecting ICD2®
or ICD3®programmer
