Hi

On Microchips site (and other sites) they show their board as having NO headers for the mikroBus connection:

(the HPC model shows headers but will not be available until next Jan)

http://www.microchip.com/promo/curiosity

From an unboxing YT video, there are headers:



The video is dated last May,  maybe Microchip stopped installing them since then?

Has anyone received one of these lately and can tell me?

As a side point in the video he says only one breakpoint (MPLAB X IDE) is allowed, is this true?

thanks

I bought one recently, if I remember correctly the box had a date code of May 2016 (bought from Mouser). Mine has headers on the mikrobus just like the video- maybe the early ones had no header and nobody updated the original pictures when they decided to add them?. I have a pic12f1822 mounted at the moment and only one breakpoint is allowed (same as when pickit3 connected- its a limitation of the pic being used).
