Features:

Designed exclusively for the Raspberry Pi and Arduino ecosystems

Features a Microchip 32-bit PIC32 microcontroller (MCU) in a prototyping-friendly, low pin count SPDIP package

Supports the chipKITTM Multi-Platform IDE (MPIDE)

Allows users to create, compile and program Arduino sketch-based chipKITTM applications within the Raspberry Pi operating system

Enables the development of 3.3V Arduino compatible applications for the Raspberry Pi using PIC32 MCU

Product Description:

Designed for Raspberry Pi, ChipKITTM Pi is the latest ArduinoTM compatible ChipKITTM platform from Microchip and element14. It features a 32-bit PIC32 microcontroller in a prototyping-friendly, low pin count SPDIP package. The PIC32's performance, memory and integrated peripherals allow users to create applications including touch sensing, audio processing and advanced control. The board is supported by the free ChipKITTM Multi-Platform IDE (MPIDE) that can be hosted on the Raspberry Pi. 
The ChipKIT Pi can interface directly to the Raspberry Pi I/O Expansion header without any additional components, reducing both cost and design complexity. Users can also tap into the large repository of available Arduino tutorials, reference materials, curriculum and more to create a diverse array of designs. Arduino skeches created using the Raspberry PI and Chipkit Pi can then be run independently on the chipKit Pi without the Raspberry PI being attached.
