../../_images/processor-three.jpg

The Pickit processor 3.0 is 75% lighter and more compact compared to the Pickit processors 2.0: Its dimensions are almost half as large and it fits in a 1U rack mount, instead of 2U. The processor is also more rugged and less noisy.

Additionally, its 12V DC-in power supply is a separate adapter, so the processor can be optionally mounted on an Autonomous Ground Vehicle (AGV), and does not require to be powered from an AC power input like a wall socket.
