  • Open an existing PIC32MZ1025W10432 MCC project in MPLABx.

  • Open Project properties by selecting customize option available in the drop-down options as shown below.

    Customize option

  • Change the Device name to PIC32MZ2051W10432 and select the DFP pack 1.8.326 and compiler version. If the DFP pack is not installed, click on “Install” to install the DFP as shown below. Then apply the changes by pressing “Apply” and “Ok”.
