The Basys MX3 is no longer in production. Once the current stock is depleted, it will be discontinued.
The Basys MX3 is a true MCU trainer board designed from the ground up around the teaching experience. Basys MX3 features the PIC32MX370 from Microchip and was designed to be used with the MPLAB® X IDE. With an exhaustive set of peripherals, students gain exposure to a wide range of embedded systems related concepts while using a professional grade tool set. Accompanied by free and open source coursework, including seven in-depth teaching units and 15 complete labs, the Basys MX3 is a versatile MCU trainer board ideal for teaching introductory embedded systems courses.
