PIC32-PINGUINO-220MX LED HELP

[Elisaveta]

Hello,
I want to realize a project which should control 15-16 LED outputs and I think to use PIC32-PINGUINO-220MX. I have experience with pic processors and I know I can program Analog input as output. Can I define A0-A5 as outputs for sure? Can I connect and exchange signals between PIC32-pinguino and some c++ program through USB?
Thank you in advance!

Hey Elisaveta,

We discussed the matter over the support e-mail.

Can I connect and exchange signals between PIC32-pinguino and some c++ program through USB?
The USB is used for communication with PINGUINO IDE. If you have a PIC32-compatible programmer/debugger you can use the board as general-purpose one and then you can use the USB for whatever you want. But if you redefine the pins in the PINGUINO IDE you might lose the ability to program it via PINGUINO IDE (and the bootloader).

Best regards,
