@brief Support for the Digilent PIC32 WiFire
## Overview
The ChipKit Wifire is a development board by Digilent featuring a PIC32MZ and a Wifi module (MRF24WG0MA).
General information about the board can be found [here](https://store.digilentinc.com/wi-fire-wifi-enabled-pic32mz-microcontroller-board/)
Please do not use board rev A or B as they use a different MCU (PIC32MZ2048ECG100).

## Using UART
This board opens a serial interface through the USB automatically.
## Flashing the device
There are three ways to flash the MCU:
* Using MPLAB-IPE and a PICkit 3 (The RIOT build generates a hexfile
compatible with MPLAB-IPE)
* Using pic32prog and a PICkit 2 or a PICkit 3 (other devices might be
supported by pic32prog but were not tested).
* Using a SEGGER J-Link probe. JTAG pins are available on the JP3 connector.
## Supported Toolchains
For using the pic32-wifire board we strongly recommend the usage of the
[Codescape GNU Tools](https://codescape.mips.com) toolchain.
