BIGPIC3 development system is a full-featured development board for the Microchip 80-pin PIC microcontrollers. It was designed to allow students or engineers to easily exercise and explore the capabilities of the PIC microcontrollers. It allows the PIC microcontroller to be interfaced with external circuits to a broad range of the peripheral devices, allowing the user to concentrate just on the software. Figure on the left illustrates the first contact with the development system. On a silkscreen there are marks beside every component. These marks describe connection to microcontroller, operation modes, and some other useful notes. As a result, need for additional schematics is minimized, because all information are already on the board.

USB 2.0 on-board programmer - PICFlash2: You will get the USB programmer which doesn't use boot loader or any similar way of programming. The whole PIC memory and all pins are available to you. If you do use boot loader, you have to leave some RAM memory for this propose, and it is generally not a such good idea if you program in Pascal, C or Basic. Also if you use low-level programming (5 VDC instead 12.5 VDC), note that you lose RB6 pin. PICFlash2 have voltage pump and generate 12.5 VDC so you have all pins for your project. Aside from that, you will have state-of-the-art fast USB PIC In-System programmer for your future projects.
