Refer to the following links for more information. - [Microchip 32-bit MCUs](https://www.microchip.com/design-centers/32-bit) - [Microchip 32-bit MPUs](https://www.microchip.com/design-centers/32-bit-mpus) - [Microchip MPLAB X IDE](https://www.microchip.com/mplab/mplab-x-ide) - [Microchip MPLAB® Harmony](https://www.microchip.com/mplab/mplab-harmony) - [Microchip MPLAB® Harmony Pages](https://microchip-mplab-harmony.github.io/) # MPLAB® Harmony 3 Reference Applications **Reference Applications** are standalone applications that demonstrate specific features or capabilities of Microchip's 32-bit SAM and PIC® microcontroller (MCU) and microprocessor (MPU) devices. These applications are developed using Microchip's 32-bit SAM and PIC® MCU/MPU development boards and kits. The typical types of **Reference Applications** include: - **Feature-rich applications** that integrate multiple technologies such as USB, TCP/IP, Wireless, Security, Low Power, RTOS, etc. - **Applications demonstrating specific MCU/MPU capabilities**, such as Low Power applications. - **Applications showcasing the capabilities of Microchip's MCU/MPU development boards and kits** (e.g., Curiosity, Nano), which enable hardware expansion through mikroBUS Click or Xplained Pro extensions. - **Getting Started applications** designed to introduce users to MCU/MPU products. These applications demonstrate the use of the MPLAB Harmony 3 framework with the MCC UI, highlighting commonly used peripheral features. # Contents Summary | Folder | Description | | --- | --- | | apps | Example reference applications | ____ [![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-Harmony%20license-orange.svg)](https://github.com/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps/blob/master/mplab_harmony_license.md) [![Latest release](https://img.shields.io/github/release/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps.svg)](https://github.com/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps/releases/latest) [![Latest release date](https://img.shields.io/github/release-date/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps.svg)](https://github.com/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps/releases/latest) [![Commit activity](https://img.shields.io/github/commit-activity/y/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps.svg)](https://github.com/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps/graphs/commit-activity) [![Contributors](https://img.shields.io/github/contributors-anon/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps.svg)]() ____ [![Follow us on Youtube](https://img.shields.io/badge/Youtube-Follow%20us%20on%20Youtube-red.svg)](https://www.youtube.com/user/MicrochipTechnology) [![Follow us on LinkedIn](https://img.shields.io/badge/LinkedIn-Follow%20us%20on%20LinkedIn-blue.svg)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/microchip-technology) [![Follow us on Facebook](https://img.shields.io/badge/Facebook-Follow%20us%20on%20Facebook-blue.svg)](https://www.facebook.com/microchiptechnology/) [![Follow us on Twitter](https://img.shields.io/twitter/follow/MicrochipTech.svg?style=social)](https://twitter.com/MicrochipTech) [![](https://img.shields.io/github/stars/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps.svg?style=social)]() [![](https://img.shields.io/github/watchers/MicrochipTech/MPLAB-Harmony-Reference-Apps.svg?style=social)]()
