Summary

The Low Power Solutions Demonstration board provides

designers a convenient and fun way to explore

PICmicro® nanoWatt features within a functional

ultrasonic range-finder application. It features the

PIC18F4620, Microchip Technology's latest power

managed device.

The development tool is ideal for learning nanoWatt

features and implementing system power reduction

techniques. The Low Power Solutions Demonstration

board is part of the Workshop-in-a-Box 2, a complete

nanoWatt training kit designed for self-paced and

instructor-led training.

The Low Power Solutions Demonstration board CD

includes three self-paced, step-by-step lab exercises,

using the PIC18F4620, which illustrate the following

concepts: nanoWatt features to reduce power

consumption, improving system power consumption

and improving board performance.
