4.6.2 Powering the Target Board

There are two configurations for powering MPLAB ICD 4 and the target board:

  • The target board is powered via an external power supply.
  • The target board is powered through the MPLAB ICD 4, which is connected to an external power supply.

An external power supply, Part Number AC002014, can be purchased from Microchip Direct at www.microchipdirect.com/product/search/all/AC002014.

If you have not already done so, connect the MPLAB ICD 4 to the target board using the appropriate cables (see Connecting the Target Board). Then power the target board.
