Kit #11c - The Sumovore PIC Brainboard 2.0


Using one of the most popular styles of microcontrollers, this brainboard add-on replaces the standard discrete-logic brain with an established, powerful microcontroller! For use on select products.

If you're a microprocessor fanatic at heart and you want to make your Sumovore programmable with a PIC, replace the standard discrete-logic brain with the Microchip 16F877A brainboard add-on, featuring:

  • 33 I/O lines
  • Eight 10-bit ADC
  • Two PWM channels
  • In-circuit programming
  • Five indicator LEDs
  • Refined I/O usage
  • Small Brainboard footprint
  • Optional expansion bus (and breadboard)
  • 3-pin RS-232 serial programming


The chip comes pre-programmed with default mini-sumo and line-follower code.

Dan Peirce of Kwantlen College has been using the Sumovore as part of their APSC1299 program).

He's ported the Linefollower portion of the JAL code to Hi-Tech's (free!) full program resource link) NOTE:This code has not been tested with the new Version 2 Brainboards!

This kit is designed to work with the Sumovore Kit or any product that accepts Solabotics Brainboards.
