**Welcome to the resource center for the chipKIT Max32!**

Here you will find all the reference materials that Digilent has created for this board, as well as links to any external content we have tracked down.

The chipKIT™ Max32 is a microcontroller development board based on the Microchip PIC32MX795F512L a member of the 32-bit PIC32 microcontroller family. It is compatible with the Microchip MPLAB® IDE tools as well as the chipKIT™ MPIDE development environment. ChipKIT and MPIDE is a PIC32 based system compatible with many existing Arduino™ code examples, reference materials and other resources.
