Step 7: The PICs
We have two PIC microcontrollers, one running the main firmware and
the second handling USB duties.
The Big Kahuna is the PIC18F4620. Just make sure you put it in the
correct orientation. The tab goes towards the edge of the board. If you
plan to reprogram your PIC be sure to read the Appendices and use a
socket before soldering down the PIC.
The second PIC is the PIC18F14K50 and goes at the bottom of the
board. It has the same orientation as the 18F4620.
Figure 22 shows the PCB with all of the chips in place.
