Step 2: Download Example Code and Setup MCC

There are two ZIP files associated with this training. The first project, microSD-app-pic24fjxxxga7-solution, is the completed solution that can be programmed to demonstrate the lab and verify your setup. The second, microSD-app-pic24fjxxxga7-lab is the same project with the MPLAB® Code Configurator (MCC) files removed. It contains the source files needed to perform the lab as per the following step-by-step instructions. Both files are stored in a single GitHub repository. You will need to create a free account to download the files.

Step 2.2: Install MPLAB Code Configurator (MCC)

If needed, install MCC. We will use it to graphically create peripheral drivers for this tutorial.

Step 2.3 - Install MCC File System Library (FatFs)

The MCC File System Library (FatFs) is a custom, third-party MCC library used to graphically add driver code associated with the MIKROE microSD Click Board.

1

Download the FatFs from the MCC page.

2

Check for the latest version, in this project we use version v1.1.0.
