HF-DDS KIT DESCRIPTION

Please Note: that all information including pictures on this web page are copyright to Mini-Kits & must not be used on any other web site.

The HF-DDS documentation below is for those that are wanting to know if this Kit is suitable for their own application. The Kit comes complete with detailed circuit & construction information, including schematic & board overlay diagrams.

The PIC Source code will not be available for those that may want to change things in the Software, but we may be able to get some updates to the Software if we have enough requests. A Bootloader is programmed into the PIC18F4520 so that firmware updates can easily be done if required. The Bootloader is also used to protect the Software copyright due to Mini-Kits large investment in this project.

HF-DDS SOFTWARE

How To Update The Software Download

AN851 Microchip Quick Programmer Software Download

Latest Firmware Update UPDATE_HF_DDS_VER_X_X.hex Download There are currently no software updates after v1.J2 4/12/2009

PLease note: that if you try & update the software using a PIC programmer then you will erase the bootloader software that is pre-programmed into the PIC. The bootloaded is used to protect Mini-Kits from software piracy, & if you accidentaly do this then you will have to return your EME150 Microcontroller board to Mini-Kits to be reprogrammed.
