3.9 Switches

The following switches are available on the PIC32WM-BW1 Curiosity Board:

  • Reset switch (SW1)
  • User-configurable switch (SW2)

In the Idle state, the level of the Reset switch is pulled high using the external pull-up resistor and, when the switch is pressed, it drives the level of the switch to low and resets the PIC32WM-BW1 Module.

The external pull-up resistor also pulls the user-configurable switch high. When the switch is pressed, it drives the level of the switch to low.
